Five questions...one more time
Actually, Geoff gave us nine questions. The extras were in case we didn't feel comfortable answering the first five. I've decided to give 'em all a shot. Two or three of 'em won't be easy to answer, but, what the hell. I'll give it my best shot.
1. Should marriage between same sex couples be federally recognized? Why or why not?
I really don't see why not. If any two people can find love and committment in this f'ed up world, who is the government to stand in their way? God knows that couples comprised of a man and a woman can be a horrid combination and that they can and do perpetrate their dysfunction upon children and the rest of society. We all already pay for that. Yet, they get all the help and all the 'federal recognition'. Give same sex couples a break. They need help taking care of each other, too. And, I'll bet ya a disproportionate number of them are better people and couples than heterosexuals. Hell, they can't be much worse. Fucking with people based on who they sleep with is utterly stupid. Our asinine government should use all that wasted energy they spend on screwing with same sex couples on say...terrorists, for example. Or homeless people. Or improperly schooled children. Whatever. There are a lot better things our government could be doing than worrying about who sleeps with whom.
2. If you were the opposite sex for one day, what would you spend it doing?
Well, this one's easy. I've always said that if I were a guy I spend days on end playing with my winkie. I'd be peeing on everything that couldn't run away. And, trying for a few things that could. Man, it is so not fair. Guys get to pee whenever and wherever they want. We women have to trek about 40 miles, usually, to find a bathroom that the bitch ahead of us peed on the seat in and that has no toilet paper.
If I could be one specific guy, I'd be Eric so I could see what he sees in me. Besides, after I'd figured that out, I'd have sooo much to play with....
3. What does the American flag mean to you?
Now, this one ain't easy. September 11, 2001 screwed me all up. I used to just look at it like a red, white and blue piece of cloth that our politicians pissed all over. They made it mean next to nothing for me. I adopted the Georgia State flag and the POW flag as my flags. They meant something. Then, Georgia caved and changed their flag to some rag I can't even bear to look at. Idiots. But, I still have the POW flag. Not even the damn government can ruin the meaning of that flag. Then.....9/11/01. Now, the American flag means to me: Todd Beamer.
His courage, bravery, balls and faith changed me. The American flag stands for him now, to me. For him and for what our leaders should be...but aren't.
4. Is the war in Iraq illegal? Support your answer.
I'm not sure I understand this one. 'Illegal'...as in against the law? Apparently not, as it is being done. Is it wrong? Only that it took us so long to do it. We should have started it on 9/12/01. Besides, isn't it 'illegal' and wrong to hijack airplanes, fly them into buildings and kill thousands of people? Fuck the legalities. Those towel-headed pricks started this shit, let's finish it. And them.
5. Some states require community service for people on public assistance. Is this appropriate? Why?
I think so. The public is helping you, you help the public. Besides, we don't need these people getting used to not working, now do we? If I ever accepted any kind of public assistance, I'd feel compelled to do something constructive in return. Makes sense, too. Are you sure a government of some kind thought of this?
6. If you could bed down anyone alive today, who would it be and why did you choose them?
Jeez, Geoff. Who do you hang around with that you felt the need to specify 'alive'? (You're scarin' me, Big Guy.) I take it you mean besides Eric. Seeing how I just started an AC/DC CD, Malcolm Young springs to mind. Fuckin' gorgeous...and then there's that whole 'cut your cake with my knife' thing. I've always wondered about that. (Wondered who came up with such a dorky way to say "I wanna fark you", that is.) Let's see....Kurt Russell is awesome. Dwight Yoakam also comes to mind. With those tight-assed jeans he wears, I'd like to get him naked to see why there's no pleasing bulge in the front. (Needledick, no doubt.) I don't know....who, who, who? Hmmm. Acidman so Da Goddess's head would explode? Nononono. Ummmm.....Dude, I am just so completely in love with and satisfied by Eric, I can't think of anybody. If I do, I'll come back to this one.
7. Of all your possessions, which would you hate to lose the most?
Discounting Eric and my animals because they are not 'possessions', I'd have to say my car. That would screw everything all up and be a complete pain in the ass to replace.
8. What car best suits your personality?
Well, I love my Firebird, but I'd trade it for an F-150 in a skinny minute. The 'Bird suits my 'adult' personality. A really solid, kick-ass Ford pickup suits all of my personality perfectly. Think totally tweaked truck with big tires, roll bar, tool box, lights, gun rack, sliding back window, 4-wheel drive, retarded bumper stickers...a black Ford with red pin-striping like that. A real Redneckmobile. Give me one of those, an Army Corp. of Engineers river dike, a gravel pit or a mudhole and watch the fun. Or, better yet, come with me...if ya dare.
9. Why do you blog?
Release. To dump all the crap outta my head and maybe find some answers to shit that's been makin' me crazy forever. It's also nice to find out that there are people who think the same things I do and feel the same ways I do about things. Besides, it's legal...which my other form of 'therapy' is not.
Whew.
Well, if there's anyone who wants to answer some questions, just say so. I won't do what I did last time. Last time, I asked for a comment to that affect and got one that said "comment" and ran with it. This time, feel free to comment. Unless you say so, I won't take it as a request to be interviewed. Okay?
Cool. (AC/DC kicks ASS!) "Shook me all night long" is what's playing right now. I'll be back shortly...of course. I'm only 5'8". (Do I have a choice about it being 'shortly'?)
