I'll just link to this one;

**** White Girls Say...to Black Girls - YouTube!

The thing that is so compelling is that this is what they say.

I PAID A BRIBE

Quote from one who paid;

Kenya Bureau of Standards should change their name to Kenya Bribe services.I brought in some cars and had nt recieved the inspection report from Japan. After completing my local procedures and was awaiting to get clearance, KBS decided to fleece me, 2 officers in particular in a certain CFS are well known for demanding bribes before they certify a car, am so tired and if they dont stop will name and shame them! i wasnt going to keep waiting to pay demurrage, i paid off the two brothers and got my cars out! so annoying,

NAACP chapter president says group has been barred from Martin Luther King Jr. event | NOLA.com

NAACP chapter president says group has been barred from Martin Luther King Jr. event


King accused the Landrieu administration of refusing to allow the local NAACP branch to join in a ceremony prior to a city-sponsored march on Jan. 16 celebrating the life and legacy of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.

"When you have an organization, the largest and oldest civil rights organization -- an organization that worked hand in hand with the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King -- and they are not only overlooked, but they are denied participation, it's not only an insult, but a disrespect," King told WWL-TV.

The Rev. Norwood Thompson, chairman of the MLK Celebration Commission, told the station that King's request came too late for inclusion in this year's program but that the NAACP will be considered for participation in the future.

Deleted by OP for now.
I'll find something to fill the space.

Look at me writing as if this is as real as Pen & Paper!

That's it I'll ask a question for all to weigh in on.

Are our thoughts and IDEAS as real here, in the form of an atomic level molecular current state, as are the knowledge held in the writings of Newton, Galileo, Shakespeare, Clemens, Twain or some monks in the 8th century?

ps: Did anyone get the little joke in the above?

(Clemens & Twain are the same person)

Why do men whistle when they're sitting on the toilet?

Because it helps them remember which end they need to wipe.





How do you get a man to do sit-ups?

Put the remote control between his toes.







Why are blonde jokes so short?

So men can remember them.

At Andrew Jackson's funeral in 1845, his pet parrot had to be removed because it was swearing.
