			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My take on what is written on an article on Shine by The Foxy Life by Elycia Rubin and Rita Mauceri. I often read these lists because they annoy the hell out of me, which sometimes makes for good writing fodder.</p>
<p>This one is about 10 food that are supposedly the most disliked.</p>
<p>1. Liver: Agreed, but it&#8217;s funny, they don&#8217;t mention the smell.</p>
<p>2. Blue Cheese: I hate the stuff normally, but I like it when a little is cooked into hambugers. The small is mostly cooked out, and it does add a nice subtle flavor.</p>
<p>3. Eggplant: Really? I love the stuff. There is an Italian resaurant here that puts pickled eggplant on their salads and I love that stuff. I also love Baba Ghanoush, and Eggplant parmasian.</p>
<p>4. Okra: Another one I have to say really? to. It&#8217;s great fried and I strongly prefer Okra Gumbo.</p>
<p>5. Sardines: Can&#8217;t say if I&#8217;ve ever had them. I do like anchovies, particularly on Salads.</p>
<p>6. Lima Beans: Okay&#8230; Ham and beans anyone?</p>
<p>7. Brussle Sprouts: Baby cabbages. Good by themselves, best with cheese sauce. Butter and pepper with just a bit of vinegar or lemon juice is also very good.</p>
<p>8. Grits: Hot Malt-O-Meal is breakfast grits in a box. I would bet more people have had them, and like them,  than realize it. I haven&#8217;t had cheese grits yet, but they are supposed to be very good.</p>
<p>9. Hard Boiled Eggs: They also fail to mention the smell here. Odd considering the similarity to old farts. I hate these things. I rarely eat eggs that aren&#8217;t scrambled.</p>
<p>10. Beets: I love pickled beets. They are also good on salads, and in soup.</p>
<p>Well I&#8217;m 3 for 10 so I guess they missed the mark with me.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I hate articles that try to tell people all about other people.</p>
<p>The one that set me off this time is called <a href="http://www.marieclaire.com/sex-love/advice/tips/men-dating-secrets?link=rel&amp;dom=yah_life&amp;src=syn&amp;con=blog&amp;mag=mar&amp;ha=1" target="_blank">20 secrets men keep. By Rich Santos on marie claire.</a> Just a page I linked to off yahoo, couldn&#8217;t help myself. I had to see just what secrets we are all keeping.</p>
<p>Secret 1: We Like to Cuddle. Well I have no personal experience to yay or nay this one yet, but I would have to say if I do end up liking to cuddle, I see no reason to keep it a secret.</p>
<p>Secret 2: We think We are Good in Bed: Same as one in some respects. Might be true for good looking guys that get the chicks without needing to try. In my case I have a vivid imagination, and a fetish for seeing girls cum hard. I don&#8217;t think I will short change any of the girls I end up in bed with once I get over my timidity.</p>
<p>(I am really starting to hate ads that pop up during videos, and slide-shows, and games)<br />
Secret 3:  Getting tipsy on a date is a turn off. I would agree with this sentiment, but I am also honest enough to say something about it.</p>
<p>Secret 4: Heavy Make Up is a Turn Off: Again I agree, usually. I like goth chicks.</p>
<p>Secret 5: We put pressure on ourselves to get married: Bullshit. Men get married because women want to, and we care about them enough to do it. Sorry, we are mammals&#8230;animals, and contrary to popular belief even animals that mate for life fuck around.</p>
<p>Secret 6: We Want to Bail the morning after a one night stand: I am not really attracted to the idea of a one night stand as it is, I&#8217;m pretty sure I&#8217;m not the only one.</p>
<p>Secret 7: You will never understand our Sports Obsession: I don&#8217;t have any. I enjoy Boxing and MMA, but I rarely watch them, and I never watch team sports. The only other sporting events I try to watch are the Olympics.</p>
<p>(Another fucking ad)<br />
Secret 8: You&#8217;re not the only one that engages in retail-therapy-post-breakup: I don&#8217;t. Well I&#8217;ve never had a break up, but I know myself well enough to know that I use food for comfort, not shopping. This type of generalization is just plain stupid.</p>
<p>Secret 9: Sex in the shower is over rated: I wouldn&#8217;t know yet, but since one of my most common fantasies is sex in the shower, or sex in the rain, I doubt I would agree.</p>
<p>Secret 10: We do think you&#8217;re crazy sometimes, but only because it makes things easier for us: We are all crazy, get over it. Women aren&#8217;t impossible to understand, most men just don&#8217;t like the answers they come up with.</p>
<p>Secret 11: Leave your [Emotional] baggage at the door: Depends on what it is.</p>
<p>Secret 12: We are afraid of Commitment: No, it just isn&#8217;t natural, but that&#8217;s too scary to deal with considering the years of having &#8220;normal&#8221; relationship crap drilled into our heads.</p>
<p>(yet another ad)<br />
Secret 13: Confidence is key in the bedroom: He says that women should act like they know what they are doing in bed even if they don&#8217;t. Might be the case for him, but I like shy, awkward girls. The more virginal the better.</p>
<p>Secret 14: We&#8217;re insecure about dirty talk: Ummm&#8230; That kinda goes against number 13 doesn&#8217;t it? I think this reveals more about this douche than men in general. Looks like he likes his girls to play sex doll. Personally I think it would depend on how dirty the talk was.</p>
<p>Secret 15: Sometimes, we do blame your bad mood on PMS: Yeah, because sometimes it is because of PMS. Not really a secret, just something it&#8217;s best not to bring up.</p>
<p>Secret 16: We get jealous because we&#8217;re insecure: That might be part of it, but it&#8217;s also because we know what the other guys are thinking about, because it&#8217;s what we are thinking about. Jealousy is a sign we care, don&#8217;t flip out over it, unless it&#8217;s way beyond normal.</p>
<p>Secret 17: We hate when you try too hard to be one of the guys: Depends. I can&#8217;t stand dykes that try to act like men because they look like cartoon versions of us. Not sure about other situations.</p>
<p>(and yet another fucking ad)<br />
Secret 18: We notice what you&#8217;re wearing: Personally, I notice what you&#8217;re not wearing a hell of a lot faster.</p>
<p>Secret 19: Sex on the beach? We prefer the drink: Never been all that attracted to the idea of sex on the beach to begin with. Another one I fail to see as a secret, or something that would be true for all men.</p>
<p>Secret 20: We play hard to get &#8211; and we know it: No experience on this one. I might come across as playing hard to get, but it&#8217;s because I feel like I am unworthy of affection or love.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What happened to land of the free home of the brave? What happened to liberty for all? When did the heart beat of America become greed?</p>
<p>Our nation was born out of rebellion. Rebels that defied their rulers in England and used gorilla war fare to win.</p>
<p>It was built on the spirit of progress, and looking to the future.</p>
<p>Our great grandfathers, grandfathers, mothers, daughters, sons, fathers and sisters have fought, bled, and died for those ideals.</p>
<p>Politicians spend more time looking for ways to get kickbacks than figuring out how to solve the countries problems.</p>
<p>Corporations are so interested in increasing their profit margins that they forgot there has to be a functioning economy to maintain them.</p>
<p>Republican and Democrat aren&#8217;t about who&#8217;s the right person for the job anymore, it&#8217;s about who can scare the most people into believing a line of bullshit that will keep them in office another term, so they can keep sucking us dry.</p>
<p>People don&#8217;t look to the future, they cower with their holy books in the shadows, looking to a past that offers nothing.</p>
<p>We send soldiers to die, then do nothing to help them when they get back.</p>
<p>The right are under-educated fear mongering fools that spout off about shit without ever bothering to find out any facts for themselves. The left are overly concerned with politically correct bullshit that isn&#8217;t important.</p>
<p>Where are the rebels today? Where is the spirit? Where is the fire of a nation dedicated to the ideal of being free?</p>
<p>What happened to America? Where did it go?</p>
<p>This isn&#8217;t America, not anymore. The founding fathers would be ashamed of what we&#8217;ve become.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m ashamed of what has been done to the dream, to the spirit of the country. It&#8217;s been bulldozed with dollar signs and back room deals.</p>
<p>This Government was intended to be up-datable, to be able to change with the times and to make sure the little demons had as hard a time as possible keeping a foothold.</p>
<p>Any politician that wants things to stay the same, mainly the right wing but not just them, is your enemy. The system is broken, and they keep getting richer, while we keep getting poorer. Things need to change.</p>
<p>&#8220;Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny.&#8221;<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While I have many reasons rooted in historic knowledge, personal distaste and opinion, etc, to dislike; even hate religion, I try to maintain some separation in my head between the people and the religion.</p>
<p>These people go beyond that into the realm of just being bad people, and hypocritical ones to boot.</p>
<p>They say they are Christians, and the Christian church is supposed to be built on love. God is Love&#8230;right.<br />
So why do I see a girl wearing a shirt that appears to read God Hates Fags on it? Where&#8217;s the love?</p>
<p>The news story here is that these people are protesting the funerals of Soldiers. Men and Women who have been killed in service to their country. Now I have always been against the war in Iraq. It had nothing to do with 9/11,  Afghanistan is another story, they KNEW some of the terrorists where from there</p>
<p>Bottom line is while I don&#8217;t agree with where the Government sent them, I have never held issue with the military it&#8217;s self. I wish it didn&#8217;t need to exist, but I have come to realize that the idea of peace is nothing but a dream. Humans can&#8217;t seem to live without conflict for long. So I hold no issue with the military.</p>
<p>Back on track. These &#8220;people&#8221; are protesting the funerals of people. Does it really need to be any more complicated than that? It doesn&#8217;t matter who they were, or how they died. They were still people. Deserving of as much respect as anyone else. Respect afforded to their family if nothing else.</p>
<p>I take that back partially. These protesters deserve not one iota of respect.</p>
<p>Now lets look at them some more, at least as much as my stomach can hold up to it.</p>
<p>As a Kansas born, raised, and still living man, I am ashamed that these fools call the same state as me home.</p>
<p>They protest with signs that read things like &#8220;Thank God For Dead Soldiers&#8221;, &#8220;Thank God For IEDs&#8221;. If you don&#8217;t know an IED is an Improvised Explosive Device, rigged bombs. They are responsible for many, if not most, of the deaths in Iraq.</p>
<p>I would like to see someone rig an IED or three in front of their church on sunday. Nice and powerful. Set it up so it goes off when they are leaving. Let a few of their members get blown to bits and pieces and see how they like IEDs then. They want to Protest the soldiers funerals? Let&#8217;s make a few funerals for them to go to. Then people can protest their funerals.</p>
<p>Better yet, these people deserve the same kind of treatment as the one in Waco got. I&#8217;m all for the slaughter of wacko extremists. Lets see some BLOOD!</p>
<p>Now you might say, Ryan, I know you speak out against the queers yourself&#8230; NO I don&#8217;t. I speak against their behavior, which I view as being purposefully being done to make others uncomfortable. I have repeatedly said I have no issue with them beyond that fact I think they are annoying, and at certain levels of behavior, nasty. I dislike some of the things, some of them do, I don&#8217;t Hate any of them.</p>
<p>I do hate these people from the Westboro Baptist Church. They do not deserve life. They are a representation of everything I hate in humanity and Religion.</p>
<p>In the name of the Nameless Religion, I declare WAR on these fools and everyone like them! Hunt them in the shadows. Show them what terror is. Let&#8217;s make them suffer. Teach them the meaning of FEAR!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I had another thought.</p>
<p>Gay people are not a big deal.</p>
<p>Many, maybe even most other straight people would agree.</p>
<p>The thought I had was not this, it was who is really making a bigger deal out of being gay? Us&#8230; or them?</p>
<p>Now you might not understand what I mean by that, but lets take a moment to think on it.</p>
<p>Who is usually the instigator in straight vs gay battles? If you actually pay attention, most of the time it&#8217;s the gay person doing something to set off other people.</p>
<p>Now their remark is that people need to be more tolerant, because them being gay is no big deal.</p>
<p>But if your being gay is really no big deal then why do you feel a need to be so &#8220;in OUR face&#8221; about it?</p>
<p>For example, this situation with the lesbian girl wanting to go to the prom with her girlfriend. I guess if that&#8217;s what you want it shouldn&#8217;t be too big a deal, people will be too busy with their own action to care what you are doing. She  wants to go wearing a tux&#8230; now that, is a big deal. Why? I hear you ask. Simple. Going in a tux it&#8217;s no longer about going to a dance with someone you like, it&#8217;s about making a statement, about getting people&#8217;s attention. Attention many people don&#8217;t want to give you. You are trying to force a reaction out of people, and unless you are a performer of some sort, there is no reason to do that.</p>
<p>The school board is catching all kinds of shit over it, and maybe to a degree they deserve it, but why does no one have the balls to say anything against the girl?</p>
<p>Well I do, and here I go.</p>
<p>Wearing a tux is a choice. A choice she knew would cause problems, if she really didn&#8217;t think anyone would notice, she is an idiot. There is no reason for her to want to wear a tux in the first place other than making that aforementioned statement. The comeback &#8220;it&#8217;s just clothes&#8221; gets tossed around a lot, but people forget that the phrase goes both ways, bi-sexual pun not intended. Yes, they are just clothes, so why is it such a big deal to her?</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s just go ahead a say it. Queers that act  like that are fucking annoying.<br />
Not all do, many gay people are relaxed, easy going and chill. I have no issue with them. They keep their private lives private. That&#8217;s the way it should be, for everyone.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m talking about the dykes that dress up like guys and try to strut around like they have a dick. The fags that prance around and talk like valley girls. They end up looking and acting like strange cartoon characters. Over the top, goofy, fake.</p>
<p>I honestly could care less about what gay people do in the privacy of their homes, just as long as they leave it there. I don&#8217;t make a big deal out of them. I don&#8217;t want to deal with them at all. Many feel the same way I do.</p>
<p>So who is really making the bigger deal out of you being gay? Those of us that just want you to keep it to yourselves, or you?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love freedom, so yes I am a liberal. Anyone that thinks having freedom is a good idea is a liberal.<br />
The word might have many meanings when it comes to politics and economics, but the fact of the matter is that the words Liberal and Liberty come from the same root, the Latin Liber, which means Freedom.</p>
<p>So the only way you can say you aren&#8217;t a liberla at all is if you think Nazi Germany had the right idea.</p>
<p>I made this video because a right-wing hardliner left a comment calling me a LibTard amongst other things.<br />
I get pretty hot and start cussing a lot in this video, but It&#8217;s not because of the things he/she called me.</p>
<p>The use of the term LibTard (liberal retard) got me to wondering if the word liberal was in the same boat as Socialism. I know what the right wingers think it means, but I got to wondering if it might not also be another word that they throw around without even really knowing what it means.</p>
<p>So I looked it up and this video is what came of that.</p>
<p>What really got me mad was the fact so many people are using these words without even having a clue what they actually mean.<br />
With the internet there is no reason not to know. Only excuses.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The snowboarder from the previous post.</p>
<p>Apparently he didn&#8217;t leave the Olympics on his own, he was forced to leave.</p>
<p>&#8220;the USSA, in an effort to avoid USOC intervention, came to him with two options, according to sources: go home quietly and play the necessary political game, or go through a trial process and risk getting formally ejected. Lago, not wanting to torpedo any future Olympic opportunities, chose to return to New Hampshire instead of staying until the Closing Ceremony as planned, sources said.&#8221;</p>
<p>“He did something pretty foolish, but it’s nothing illegal,” Lago’s father, Michael, said&#8221;</p>
<p>How was it foolish? How is there a reason for an investigation in the first place?</p>
<p>This story just keeps getting stupider and stupider. What year is it? 2010? Could of fooled me, these people are acting like it&#8217;s the 50s again or something!</p>

<p>Long story short, he got some pictures taken of him fooling around at a club with an attractive young woman. Oooo, alert the press, a 22 year old snowboarder was having fun after winning a bronze medal at the Olympics!</p>
<p>My God! What the golly gee willikers is that young lady doing to him?!</p>
<p>Oh wow, she&#8217;s got his medal in her teeth, and has her mouth close to his fly. Lord, my retinas have been scarred for life!<br />
What ever is the world coming to when 22 year old athletes don&#8217;t act like saints just because they are at the Olympics?!<br />
This generation is so, so, soooo, DEGENERATE!</p>
<p>Really?<br />
Let&#8217;s get something straight here, the athletes haven&#8217;t changed, the ability to record them has. Not that long ago a bouncer could keep the press out of the clubs because they had to lug around big bulky cameras. Now anyone with a cellphone can snap shots of anyone, doing anything, anywhere.</p>
<p>I mean, we are talking about people that make a living playing games, and doing things most people leave behind in high school, except maybe as a hobby. They are not heroes. I&#8217;m kinda tired of the way people put athletes up on pedestals. What have they ever really done to deserve the praise they get, or the ridicule for that matter?<br />
Instead of focusing on a career in the &#8220;long view&#8221; they choose to work their asses&#8217; off training for fame and fortune early in life, they hope.</p>
<p>Now I am not trying to take away their hard work. Nor their dedication. I&#8217;m sure before events the top competitors are the picture of &#8220;good behavior&#8221;, but why do so many people seem to think they should be like that all the time?</p>
<p>They are still human. Scotty Lago was done at the Olympics. He competed and won a Medal, he deserved to have his celebration. What did he get? Embarrassed by some dick wad with a camera, and an early trip back home as his way of apologizing for something he shouldn&#8217;t need to apologize for.</p>
<p>Some people even think he should have is medal taken away.</p>
<p>FUCK YOU, and your puritanical outlook.<br />
Like you weren&#8217;t fingering yourself to thoughts of the high school jocks every night, or wishing you could get some ass they way they could.</p>
<p>Grow the fuck up.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are not even a week into the Olympics this year, and it seems that everyday I get on yahoo I see another headline about something stupid involving athletes getting kicked from competition, or getting bitched at.</p>
<p>First there was the Snowboarder that got bitched out about not dressing formal, and making a statement that the Olympics are just another competition to him. He was forced to make a public apology over this. Why? He&#8217;s a snowboarder. It&#8217;s not like the snowboarding community doesn&#8217;t already have the X-Games.</p>
<p>Then there&#8217;s the thing about the hockey player with the painted helmet. Ok, he has Miller time on there, that one I understand, but the rest of the stuff was patriotic, or a tribute. How is that a problem?</p>
<p>Then there was a story from the last winter Olympics about a guy that was banned from that years competitions because he was using a drug to try and keep from going bald. BALD! How in the flying fuck is that going to do anything to his ability to compete?!</p>
<p>Today a female luger (one who is in the luge) can&#8217;t compete because she was .2kg off on extra weight for her gear. Apparently if they weigh less than 75kg they can bring up to 75% of the difference in extra weight to even things up with the larger competitors. She was off by less than half a pound.<br />
Should she have made damn sure before she went? Yes, but that is no reason to kick her from the event instead of letting the extra weight be removed.</p>
<p>I am so very sorry, but the Olympics has gotten out of control with all the damn regulations, rules, and everything else. Like everything else it&#8217;s become a way for a city to make a shit load of money, it&#8217;s not about the athletes anymore, it&#8217;s about who can walk away with the biggest profits.</p>
<p>It is my opinion that athletes should start a strike against the Olympics until the people that run it get it through their thick skulls that they are not the reason people go to, and/or watch the Olympics.<br />
Protest, picket, whatever has to be done to get things back under control.</p>
<p>What do you think?</p>
