Black people are dumbFollow

Because I don't have to spend 16 hours a day picking nits and finding enough acorns and what not to survive on, you yutz.

I'm posting because it's storming outside, so I'm taking the day off, and I'm waiting for my pork-loin to be done. It's gonna be so delicious! It has been resting in a raspberry-chipotle marinade!

I don't get dinner for another 2 hours :/

This will be lunch. I'm thinking salmon for dinner.

Some things never change, they just look different depending on the time. None of what you go on and on about is new, nor can it ever be solved solved. We're human; egotistical and fallible.

As for why I'm posting:

That sounds soooo tasty.






I hope you have a women cooking it though, because women make better cooks, because historically.....



I keed, I keed..

Whats this?

You're missing a menu that consists of the following:

--Delicious, but really greasy, tacos.

--Diarrhea.

Seriously.

I still don't trust'em.

'Specially not after your description of their menu...

Just to throw something into the male/female "equality" debate:

How come women can have abortions, but men can't? Now, obviously, I understand that the woman carries the baby, but this is what I mean:

Let's say there's a young 16 year old couple. They do the stupid thing and have sex without a condom and have a baby. Now, if the girl feels like she can't handle the baby, or just doesn't want it, she can have an abortion and be rid of the responsibility.

However, a man is totally confined to whatever decision the woman decides to make. If HE doesn't want the baby and doesn't want to pay child support or even deal with the baby at all, he has no recourse; he's forced to pay child support until that baby is 18.

Now, why can't a man have an "abortion"? Wherein he could absolve all responsibility and go on his way as if the child was never born? A woman has that choice; if she doesn't want the baby and the man does, she can have an abortion; if she wants the baby and he doesn't, he's still stuck paying for it.

Now, this isn't to say that men and woman are equal, or that women don't get the short end of the stick (ha!) from time to time, but I'd say my example is a pretty glaring example of how guy's can get screwed over too.

And back to what I said earlier about black people: Stereotypes don't make themselves. I don't think that anybody who's being TRULY honest can say that if all the black people and white people in America were given a standardized test that black people would score better; you and I both know what the results would be.

Please don't give me that tired old "Standardized testing is racist" ********* There's nothing racist about math questions. Black people don't have an unfair disadvantage when it comes to education either. I grew up in the projects and my elementary/high school was the poorest in the state and I still got into college and got As and Bs all through my schooling life.

Except this would have to be something that both the man and woman would have to agree on I would guess. If the mother wanted the father to pay child support, he's going to be legally obligated to.

Can we use chocolate people?

I didn't read the whole thing, but from what I did read, I agree with you. My husband and I have had this discussion.

The problem with that is that we're not talking about a dog or a car. We're talking about a kid. And that kid is going to grow up and eventually want to know who his daddy is. Now, should the guy who fathered this kid get to form a bond, a relationship, with this child that he had absolutely nothing to do with for a decade or more?

I certainly don't have the answers. It's a touchy subject.
