An Adult's Conversation, seen from a Child's Point of View

I found this entertaining article on The New Yorker while reading FARK earlier today. The author relates what kids might imagine grown-ups are talking about during dinner parties...Gave me a good chuckle - hope you enjoy.

I. A Conversation at the Grownup Table, as Imagined at the Kids’ Table

MOM: Pass the wine, please. I want to become crazy.
DAD: O.K.
GRANDMOTHER: Did you see the politics? It made me angry.
DAD: Me, too. When it was over, I had sex.
UNCLE: I’m having sex right now.
DAD: We all are.
MOM: Let’s talk about which kid I like the best.
DAD: (laughing) You know, but you won’t tell.
MOM: If they ask me again, I might tell.
FRIEND FROM WORK: Hey, guess what! My voice is pretty loud!
DAD: (laughing) There are actual monsters in the world, but when my kids ask I pretend like there aren’t.
MOM: I’m angry! I’m angry all of a sudden!
DAD: I’m angry, too! We’re angry at each other!
MOM: Now everything is fine.
DAD: We just saw the PG-13 movie. It was so good.
MOM: There was a big sex.
FRIEND FROM WORK: I am the loudest! I am the loudest!
(Everybody laughs.)
MOM: I had a lot of wine, and now I’m crazy!
GRANDFATHER: Hey, do you guys know what God looks like?
ALL: Yes.
GRANDFATHER: Don’t tell the kids.

Chick-Fil-A cows???

HAHAHAHA!

This has to be read to believed. I Just thought this was pretty darned funny.

Thanks Neal Boortz for finding this gem...

Chicken eating cow?

Allow me to Rant a Minute...

Yes, I know some of you all have really been missing 'ANGRY PAT', well I just thought I would throw this group of you some red meat to devour just this one time - for old time's sake..

It's about the Democrats in Congress.

What is up with all this anti-war 'resolution' crap? Not only has it now become ridiculous the amount of resolutions the Democratic leadership has brought to the congressional floor, but none of them have any binding power ('teeth'). Whats the point?? Seriously? It's not like there's anything else they could be spending their time on, you know that could say...actually DO SOMETHING positive for our country? Oh wait, I guess it would really be helpful if they could get Pres. Bush to say that the US Military is 'overburdened'.....*sigh*

It's like being in the back of a car on a road trip with their family, and the Democrat's Dad is driving and they're in the backseat moaning 'I don't like the way you drive! I'm going to get you to apologize for taking us cross country on this trip! I HATE you! I wish you weren't my Daddy!.. WAHHHH!!' It only makes the trip more painful and doesn't make any difference anyways.

It's way beyond obvious to me that the only reason these people get out of bed in the morning is to embarrass President Bush in any possible way, shape or form. If that means siding with our enemies and encouraging them with 'resolutions' that mean nothing but send loud statements to our enemies that we are weak, then so be it. It's very very hard to believe that these people represent the best in American leadership when they can't get over their hatred for one man. Are they really that petty? (apparently, yes)

Sure, President Bush has his problems, and I don't support all his actions, but really - don't you people have anything better to do?

This is a serious question for you blog readers out there...what really is the true point of this other than embarrassing a sitting Commander in Chief? And I'm not even going to mention what would happen if the Democrats got their way in the war on terror (suicide bombers in local malls anyone?)

Whose side are they on anyways? I really honestly don't know... I guess the answer to that would be their own. Not the USA's, that's for sure.

Oh and if you voted for any of these people (here in Georgia none of them were on my ballot..), then SHAME ON YOU. Vote for someone that actually gives a crap about doing something for our future for once, not spending all their energy on worthless tantrums.
