The New Protected Group, Like We Need Another One

posted at 3:31 pm on May 11, 2014 by Jazz Shaw I know what you’re thinking this Mother’s Day weekend… we probably don’t have enough protected classes of citizens in America. #Amiright? Well, fear not, citizens. There’s a new minority in town, and as Rick Moran explains, rather than being loud and proud, they’re large and in charge . The imbroglio involving TNT NBA analyst Charles Barkley’s comments about obese people is one of those incidents that you find it hard to agree with either side. Barkley — once known as the “round mound of rebound” should be the last person making fun of fat women. His fellow analyst Shaq O’Neil looks like he’s been packing on the pounds himself since he retired. You have to imagine the TNT studio guys sitting around, mouthing off as guys might do in a locker room or a Man Cave, giving their opinions about how some women look, how ugly or hot they are. Except these guys are on national TV with a couple of million people tuning in . Quite insensitive, no...

Is The Locker Room Ready For This??

I Wish I Thought Like This

In a year from today, We’ll sit on our verandah And we’ll count all the birds in the sky. Boys and girls, playing catch, in the meadow over yonder, While the long summer days drift on by. Wait and see, wait and see, just how good it will be, In a year, just one year, from today. Wait and see, wait and see, just how good it will be, In a year, just one year, from today. What a wonderful way to think.  It happens to come from a Jewish song but what a great thought for the whole world.

I Know the Feeling

I know what she means. Even when I was at my, sarcastic least popular in school, I remained convinced that, if people got to know the real me, they’d like me.
