In Darkness

It’s an opportunity… too bad nobody will take it.

I’m talking about the writers’ strike. TV shows (including some I watch) are grinding to a halt and preparing to end their seasons early because the writers are walking out.

I’m not sure what the writers are upset about; I hear it has something to do with the internet and, frankly, I don’t care. I’m just wondering if anybody in Hollywood will actually have the balls to take this golden opportunity that the strike has handed them.

Golden opportunity? Yes, that’s right. Pure gold. Platinum, even.

Terrorism is not the biggest threat to our way of life here in America. The politicians just want you to think that so they can continue to ignore the REAL problem: Illegal Immigration.

You people need to wake up.

Sure, cheap labor is good for businesses, but if we don’t secure our borders TODAY then the next then you know we’ve got THIS Shit:

If you could pick a superhuman ability, what would you pick and what would you use it for?

That’s not you asking ME the question, that’s me asking YOU the question. But I’ll answer it anyway:

My number-one pick would be the ability to stop time. I snap my fingers and the world stops… except for me. What would I use it for? It might sound silly, but the MAIN reason I’d use it would be to get a good night’s sleep. Seriously. I could stay up until 3:00am, sleep for 10 or 11 hours, then wake up at 3:00am and keep doing whatever it was I was doing, fully rested. I could probably use it to get a lot more work done, depending on if I could make my laptop work. The down side is that I’d appear to age faster than everyone else, but that’s okay; I’m more of a “burn brighter, not longer” kind of guy.

Other than that one, there’s only two other’s I’ve ever fantasized about having. One is telekinesis. Very powerful telekinesis… strong enough to crush a car like a soda can or send one into orbit with the flick of a finger. What would I do with it? Let’s just say that the term “road rage” would take on an entirely new dimension. The third one is teleportation. Anyone who’s spent 2 hours in Atlanta traffic trying to go 5 miles will know why I’d want that. Plus, I’m just too lazy to walk up a flight of stairs if I can avoid it.

Your turn.

Stop trying to make the world safe for your children.
Instead, you should spend your energies making your children ready for a world that is inherently unsafe.
