Sucks having someone like me around to check stuff you say doesn't it?

Well, I'll be darned - I was sure the black population was still a majority.

And actually, I should have checked - good call.

I understand.

When a preppy white boy like you finds himself in a place were 28% of the people around him are black he probably does feel outnumbered.

Damn - you were not kidding - you are angry all the time.

But the "boy" part I appreciate.

You're Goddamned right.

As long as there is at least one Goddamned Republican left somewhere in the world, I'm gonna be pissed.

Prob. not good for your blood pressure.

I never get the results I'm looking for when I wade in angry. Feels good for a few seconds and pisses people off, but usually doesn't achieve much more than that.
