""WHITE"Pride"
""WHITE"Pride"
Have you ever wondered why Whites are racists, and no other race is.....
Proud to be White
Michael Richards makes his point............... Michael Richards better known as
Kramer from TVs Seinfeld does make a good point. This was his defence speech in court after making racial comments in his comedy act. He makes some very interesting points...
You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction. You call me 'White boy,' 'Cracker,' 'Honkey,' 'Whitey,' 'Caveman'... And that's OK.
But when I call you, Nigger, Kike, Towel head, Sand-nigger, Camel Jockey, Beaner,
Gook, or Chink .. You call me a racist.
You have BET. (Black Entertainment Television).. If we had WET (White Entertainment
Television), we'd be racists. If we had a White Pride Day, you would call us racists.
You have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber of Commerce, and
Then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce.. Wonder who pays for that??
A white woman could not be in the Miss Black American pageant, but any
Colour can be in the Miss America pageant.
If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships... You
Know we'd be racists. There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges in the US. Yet if
There were 'White colleges', that would be a racist college.
You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're not afraid
To announce it. But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists.
You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us. But, when a white police officer
Shoots a black gang member or beats up a black drug dealer running from the law
And a threat to society, you call him a racist..
Why Is it that only whites can be racists??
There Is nothing improper about this e-mail. Let's see which of you are
Proud enough To send it on. I sadly don't think many will. That's why we have
Lost most of OUR RIGHTS in this country. We won't Stand up for ourselves!
BE PROUD TO BE WHITE!
It's Not a crime YET ..... But Getting very close!
It Is estimated that ONLY 5% Of Those reaching This point in this e-mail, will pass It on.

Listen
Caring breeds frustration every time.
I want you to be natural.
I don’t want you to be so noble you refuse to kill the mass murderer because everyone deserves a second chance even if they aren’t sorry.
I want you to know who you are.
I don’t want you to be unsure.
I don’t want you to pose while you walk because you or anyone else thinks you’re to cool or tragic to walk normally.
I don’t want you to pretend.
I want you to be smart enough to shoot the first time instead of lowering your gun because you want some slower revenge first.
I want you to admit mistakes.
I want you to understand others mistakes.
I want you to laugh at the bad guys for their stupidity and tell them.
I want your heart to be strong.
I don’t want you to faultier over guilt that isn’t yours.
I don’t want you to believe those you just met or know are liars over those you’ve known for years you can trust.
I don’t want you to jump to conclusions from rumours you should know are more than likely wrong.
I want you to break your promise only if death won’t allow you to stay behind.
I want you to dream.
I want you to rule.
I want you to be proud of your land.
I don’t want you to wallow.
I want you to be smart.
I want you to know what it means to be smart.
I want you to be angry at those that deserve it and not hold back your punches because we should all love our neighbours.
I want you to know why you believe what you do.
I want you to take a stand for it because you believe it’s worth it.
I want you to have a reason to speak and find no shame in saying nothing if there isn’t anything in particular to say.
I want you to remember why you are.
I don’t want you to forget any moment of your past.
I want you to know the embarrassing things that happened in your past will only follow you as shame if you let them.
I want you to laugh at yourself.
I want you to love yourself.
I want you to be confident.
I want you to know there is a time to collapse with exhaustion over the pain you’ve been dealt.
But I want you to laugh while you cry because even through the pain you know what the truth is.
There is a reason why our bodies were made with the emotions they carry: Use them.
Don't ignore them. Don't abuse them. Don't fear them. Don't underestimate them.

All that's in my head is PASTE!
“This is a story where the author doesn’t feel like developing a main character, she just wants to sit in the corner sulking because she hates thinking to hard and everything lately is trying to make her think to hard. She just wants things to be DONE. Without her having to do anything but THINK it and it HAPPENS! How about someone just record her dreams? THEN they’d have something interesting to see! To read! TO ENJOY!”
“What ARE you doing?”
“I just TOLD you, I’m writing a story where-”
“That’s not what you said.”
“WHATEVER! You know what I was implying! Obviously someone is writing this, and since these quotes belong to the same person who said the first quotes I assume that means THESE quotes belong to the non-developed main character and YOUR quotes belong to the person the non-developed main character is forced to TALK to!”
“You’re insane.”
“That’s what happens when creative people lose their marbles.”
“I didn’t think creative people would be so simple as to loose something like their marbles. Wouldn’t they loose something more like their….”
“Haha. The writer-blocked author has done you in. Poor character. Can’t think of anything to say when the author is BLANK!”
“Yes. It’s quite the pain in the REAR.”
“Now YOU’RE talking in capitals too?”
“I shall speak in rhymes. For these are the times. When the author must – scratch that it’s not heading towards a rhyme… For these are the times when everyone squeezes limes and no one finds any SENSE in their wallets.”
“Screw ball, stop trying to steal the main character quote thingies… I own the main character quotes.”
“Then say something more interesting than me.”
“Only if it requires no extra work from the author!”
“So if it takes less work for the author to turn ME into the main quotes, will you argue?”
“OF COURSE!”
“Why?”
“BECAUSE THE AUTHOR IS MAKING ME! I’m going insaaaane.”
“Bye!”
“I’ll strangle you.”
“Gag.”
“This is heading no where.”
“Well what did you expect when the author is going crazy?”
“Maybe that’s her problem. She used to be crazy but now she’s sane. Everyone knows sane people cannot write books.”
“Not like the ones SHE wants to write anyway.”
“And those are?”
“Ones with a TON of action. Ones WITHOUT a bunch of filler scenes where everyone sits around talking about boring stuff.”
“Such as?”
“Such as I haven’t got a clue, cause the author’s drawing another blank.”
“She’s helpful, isn’t she.”
“Hai hai.”
“Maybe it’s the skittles killing her brain.”
“Or the music she’s sick of.”
“Why doesn’t she CHANGE the music?”
“There ain’t nothin to change it to.”
“Naturally.”
“… I think it’s dangerous to give crazy people control of a keyboard.”
“I thought her problem was that she WASN’T crazy?”
“There must be more than one kind.”
“Now my head hurts.”
“Keep up with the times, man… you’re going to be left in the past.”
“Maybe I’ll find her good ideas that went somewhere.”
“That’s depressing. How can someone with so many ideas fall in to such a deep pit? Where’s the genius that finished all those books? Maybe it’s a good thing she’s never sold any or they might ask for more and she wouldn’t be able to deliver and she’d CRASH and BURN!”
“Quit giving her ideas!”
“Her characters are shallow.”
“Yes we are.”
“I’m talking about all the characters in her stories that are going NOWHERE!”
“Like this one?”
“THIS ISN’T A STORY! IT’S A PATHETIC EXCUSE FOR A ….”
“… she drew another blank… those things come at the most inopportune moments, ne?”
“… honnto…”
“Is that even a word?”
“Hold on, the author is checking her dictionary.”
“…”
“HAI! She knew she’d heard it before and she was CORRECT! She should stop doubting herself.”
“Oh so true.”
“But now she’s bored with us because we’re being really boring…”
“That’s HER fault.”
“To true, but what can WE do about it?”
“Nothing.”
“Exactly.”
“Sad.”
“Hai.”
“I think the only reason she’s still writing anything is because if she stops with us she’ll have to attempt once again to think of something ELSE to write and … she won’t be able to.”
“She might just go and play Sims2 or watch Gintama.”
“Well if this music keeps driving her as insane as it is at the moment, she probably will!”
“But it won’t fix her problems, will it? She’ll still be stuck on NOT being able to write a THING.”
“True. But now she’s really angry because she heard you say that.”
“She already was angry, as you can tell by the fact we’re both using CAPITAL words every other word.”
“…..”
“……”
“………”
“Okay that’s getting annoying.”
“That’s all that’s in her head, man. We’re stuck with it.”
“…..”
“…….”
“Sad, author. Very sad.”

lucid atray
Aaaah HAAAAH! I FOUND him!!!
His name is Lucid Atray! Now I just have to figure out what exactly Yukyu Gensokyoku 3: Perpetual Blue is... it *can't* be just a game..!! That's totally unfair! ... especially if the game's not available in North America... *cries*
Not to mention... I'd love to know why he looks so much older in some pictures, while he looks so *little* in others... it's kinda weird.

The Glass Menagerie character chart -- Raewyn
1. Name and role.
2. One word to describe them and reason for it.
3. Facts and personality according to others and themselves.
4. Life’s ‘truth’ quotes from each character.
5. My favourite quotes from each.
Tom
- brother/narrator
Laura
- sister
Jim
- g’man caller
Amanda
- mother
Imploding
- He’s trapped and angry, restless and unsatisfied, but he has nothing to safely direct the negative emotions towards and so he holds it all inside where it shreds him inside out.
Hiding
- She is terrified of the world and everyone in it, lacking any confidence in her own abilities, and so she stays in a separate world she understands.
Determined
- He know what he’ll miss if he stays in the shadows, and doesn’t want to miss it, so he decides he will continue to move forward and deal with the ever changing future.
Denying
- She can’t accept the present, it doesn’t fit the plans she had for it and so she ploughs through it without seeing it so she can reach the future where she believes all her hard work’s prizes are waiting.
- Thomas Wingfield

Jim:
Pg 94: “Everybody has got problems, not just you, but practically everybody has got some problems. You think of yourself as having the only problems, as being the only one who is disappointed. But just look around you and you will see lots of people as disappointed as you are.”
Pg 99: “Everybody excels in some one thing. Some in many!”
Pg 105: “The different people are not like other people, but being different is nothing to be ashamed of.”
