1- After reading this, I wanted to get botox.Hopefully it would help me look less sour around my mom and we'd be friends:
"In June 2008 in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, a team of cosmetic surgeons suggested this experiment is making all of us happier. People with Botox may be less vulnerable to the angry emotions of other people because they themselves can’t make angry or unhappy faces as easily. And because people with Botox can’t spread bad feelings to others via their expressions, people without Botox may be happier too. The surgeons grant that this is just speculation for now. Nevertheless, they declare that “we are left with the tantalizing possibility that cosmetic procedures may have beneficial effects that are more than skin deep." (Nat'l Geographic ?)


2- After having random thoughts of Obama's greatness, and especially how it seems to me that skinheads and racist people will be the only ones voting for McCain. An absurd conclusion that seemed far from reality came to mind, just like I came to other absurd conclusions of random thoughts.. I figured, with the ignorance and thirst for power many of these white men want, someone is bound to attempt to assasinate Obama or --follow through with it. I mean, when it comes to these people (whom I may have stereotyped into ignorant) seeing a black man with that sort of success, power, advertising, and thumbs up from mostly everyone can seem quite endearing. Just imagine a million hitlers about to be ruled by a Jew. To them the idea must seem insane, and therefore their insane means somehow make more sense to them than reality..."Schlesselman and Cowart allegedly informed officers they were planning a "killing spree" that would involve killing 88 people and beheading 14 African-Americans. Both numbers have symbolic significance to white supremacists. The number "88" is code for "Heil Hitler," while "14" is a reference to the "14 Words," a white supremacist slogan: "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children." Court documents indicate the two suspects discussed a multi-state killing and robbing spree, to include targeting a predominantly African-American school. The murder spree would allegedly end with an attempt to assassinate presidential candidate Barack Obama with a high-powered rifle."(Marketwatch.com)
Crazy. Just imagine, what if they hadn't been caught and everything worked out for them, Where would we stand? Where would America and it's civilians stand? How would the world depict this nation; as a nation of freedom? doubt it. Let it linger. Ponder. Harder.
