Black Man Band-Aids

A thought occurred to me the other day while watching a professional African American athlete get pummeled in the head and blood started pouring out:

The traditional flesh colored band-aid carries an obvious racist undertone.  I think we are now at a point in our country where we should have Black Man Band-Aids; so people of color can also enjoy the comfort and protection of a band-aid, now with a hint of black.

Poor Interview Performance

So I had a job interview today, which I always hate doing... was it a bad idea to say "pass" on one of the questions I didn't want to answer? Is that proper interview etiquette; if not it should be.

Life's Mysteries

One of life's greatest mysteries:

Why is it so easy to drop something between the seats in your car but so freakin hard to fish it back out?

Java Updates

Every time I turn on my computer I swear Java is asking me to do an update with them. No matter how many times I keep pressing ignore, it keeps popping back up.  Java is like the nagging wife- someone tell her to get off my back, I'll get around to it when I get around to it!

How to Break-Up With a Bank Teller

I decided, if I was ever dating a girl who worked as a bank teller and I felt like things were starting to go south; I would preempt the break-up by sending a dog turd in an envelope through those pneumatic tubes (yes I did just Wikipedia the technical name) at the drive thru.  I've always wanted to do something like that and I think it would send the intended message.

Highway to the Danger Zone

So I decided that one of the freakiest and most dangerous things is to sneeze while driving down the freeway.  They say accidents at that speed can happen within a split second; I'd say my average single sneeze lasts about 1.6 seconds-who knows what sort of devastation can happen within that time period!  While my eyes are closed during the sneeze, I always envision things like semi trucks cutting in front of me, small animals suddenly appearing in my lane, or me drifting into oncoming traffic.  It must be death for those drivers who are multiple sneezers; if I were them I would give up driving all together and pick myself up a bus pass.
