Loquacious Levity 3-4-2008

Ok, so some dude in a suit walks into a Wendy's and Kills a few folk then kills himself. My first thought after "fuck, man. why the hell would you do that" was: "damn now you cant even trust people in a suit." I know that all the accounting scandals, nee, out right lies that lead to the demise of many companines early in this millenium made you distrust those greedy bastards at the top, rightfully so, but if you did not trust the "suits" in the ethical sense, you were certain that a dude in a suit at LEAST had his head on straight...enough to keep a decent job anyway...

Now this whole situation brought an ugly demon of mind out to the surface. In the coverage of this on the local news(stamford, ct), there was no pic of the shooter. Not even a freaking name...the day before i saw a black perpetrator of a crime's face plastered all over the screen(robbery). When someone kills someone else in cold blood for NO REASON(no scuffed shoes no baby mama drama, etc. I know those are not valid reasons to take a life but its A REASON...) there is no picture. I am not gonna lie to you. This guy had to be white. Not necessarily white, just not black. You know i am the first one to put the race card back in the deck but come the FUCK ON NOW...what kind of unbiased journalism is that?...

You may say that "they withhold the pic in these circumstances to deter anyone who would want to get famous by this method"...uh-huh...Ok, cant you say the same for posting a picture of a robber...? And, its not that said black perpetrator didnt do anything wrong but its hard to dispell the negative "thief" STEREOtype when the only time we see black folk on the news is when we fuck up...i mean give us something here. You will give the camera to Jesse or Al's sensationalist messages(btw, appreciate all youve done for us fellas but its about that time, dont you think?), but when a black man(obama supporter) articulately says the healthcare system is complex and hard to change and subsequently explains why when called on it, it has to be circulated through emails(i got it as a fwd from mom dukes...) Not a sniff of this on the news. Unbiased journalism, huh...on that note:

You know ive never actually seen a phrase turn into an oxymoron before. Usually by time i get to it, it has already happened...like World Peace..."unbiased journalism" is now an oxymoron people. We have witnessed in the past 30 years or so the total bastardization of the 4th estate by ratings-hungry producers and corporate parent companies. With all the trumphed up epidemic scares(remember SARS...it probably killed, what, 200 people world wide? epidemic my ass) to bogus war information with no type of fact-checking, my generation witnessed the degradation of a once fine medium. I wish i would have seen Murrow or Buckley(while i didnt agree with Buck in ideology you gotta admit the man was a wordsmith..) in action back in the day. That would have been a breath of fresh air. Ah-well. If it werent so disheartening it would actually be fascinating from a literary prespective to see the transformation of a truth into a lie, into a mockery, into an oxy moron...

Um...i hate to toot my own horn but have you seen someone string a sentence together like me? Actually not so much sentences as they are random gatherings of polysyllabic words to culminate in a rational thought...yeah thats about right...

Toot ones own horn, huh...Are you gonna toot someone elses? I wouldnt if i were you not until you go on a date first...dont be a slut...

Word of the day: sesquipedalian...

Really man, aint there a way to, you know, abolish all peas from this planet. What has a pea ever done for you.? All it does is piss princesses off and ruin good soup! Lets put a stop to this nonsense. I would like my generation to be the last to have to suffer through the horror that are Peas...

When was the last time you diagrammed a sentence?

That- shit- was -pointless.
prn -noun-verb-adj...

I hope Mickey V. found a nice young man that will make his remaining months a joy...aint love grand...

Hey btw, you know what my dog's name( a "black labrador"/mutt )was growing up? Sprinkles"...and, i know what you are thinking...

Yes that is the gayest name for a dog ever(not that there is anything wrong with that)

But seriously, you got some smiggidy about my dog, man...? Ill cut you over that shit...dont play...


I guess, the whole Mike Vick thing did play out like you would have expected though...People are just irrational when it comes to their dogs...But is there any other being on this earth that wont stab you in the back, generally loves your company, is there for you thick or thin rich or poor fat or more fat, and is your obedient servant no questions asked? Nope. Want one? Get a dog...

Its no coincidence that dog is an anagram for God...I am just saying...think about it...





Alright so ive railed against the media...told a few jokes...gave Peas the business...and likened dogs to God...yep my work's done here today

Bruce Eagle the Full Metal. Peace!!!
