The Email Part 1

This is a real email-string between myself and my best friend from back east. This was a private conversation until now. Neither one of us knew it would be published at the time. Basically the gist is; I'm an Obama supporter, he's not, and we're both obviously racist. Although highly offensive, it is so funny and topical, I needed to share it. My friend's comments are in bold, mine in regular font, it is completely unedited and like 50 emails long, this is part 1.

He starts the string with the funniest email title ever.

(him) Title: I'm scared of this black dude -- Obama..


(me) well at least your finally being honest for christ!

laughing out loud.

it's okay, all my east coast guy friends are basically racist, it's in the water, we're all racist to a certain extent, sometimes it's common sense, big black mofo comes at you in an alley, you're prob not thinking this guy wants to give me a cookie. . .

anyway, know this, we're dinosaurs.

biggest concern on this end. this guy might get shot. kennedys, lennon, reagan, etc.

great honesty though.


easy does it on being racist.. I agree with your common sense example.. though a cookie does sound nice right about now..

I'm scared of this guy's policies just as I'm concerned with Hill's policies.. that is what I'm scared of.. you probably already knew that..

I couldn't agree with you more about this guy getting shot.. that would be terrible and rewind this country back 20-30 years in respect to race relations..

what are you going to have for lunch? me - 2 slices of pizza -- cheese.. heaven..


what, what i say? what's wrong with being a little bit racist?

hey, last week he was too vague, today scary policy. which is it sean hannity?

i have no prob w/ mccain. at least he is honest about having no understanding of basic economics, hence the tax cut on inelastic oil supply, yielding no price change, made sense to him.

at least he will counter-act the OPEC terrorist funding by bombing the shit out of iran.

as for obama, he received more $$ from hedge funds and wall street than the other 2 combined, so he's plenty biz friendly. cap gains tax raise won't happen, market is too f-cked w/ credit issues through 09'.

truth is, we do need tax revenue unless we bag social security/ medicare. i'd love to supply side them both into the abyss, but our parents and all the f--king boomers would be pretty upset.

as for other policy, he's so f-ing vague, i don't know what your talking about, unless his decidedly anti-gay marriage stance.

but yeah, generally, black guys are scary.

romney 08'.


Al Sharpton will be Sec. of Defense & J. Jackson will be his Sec. of State!! Those mother fuckers will have their hands out -- as they should..

Which is it you ask? Both. I'm scared that I know so little about this guy - I'm scared that he is going to have a special on Kool Cigarites and Mad Dog 20/20..

I agree, we do need tax revenue - more has been going out for awhile now and that needs to change...

My real is issue is this - ready for it.. it may not make much sense.. but here it is.. Deval Patrick - a black man - ran on Change - Change - Change -- I'm not saying he is wrong about it -- he is right -- Change is a good thing.. but when you follow up with Nothing Nothing Nothing -- I can't fucking stand that -- I see the same thing with Obama and I hope I'm wrong if he wins the whole shooting match.. everyone that is behind is for change - I like it & I can get around it -- but what I can't get around is what you have underneath this change you are talking about & I'm afraid this guy will not have the juice to get anything done.. Just like my friend for Mass. Gov. Deval Patrick.. who, so far is the worst fucking Governor Mass. has had since Jane Swift..

I guess I'm tired of the whole thing and could really give two fucking Morrissey's shits of who wins.. I wish Jeb Bush would have ran --


that was amazingly funny! best one in a long time.

yeah, it mostly makes me sick too, the whole thing, why is this brother bowling, stick to hoops, track and field events, and the like.

when will we get a strong male morrissey like figure in charge?

Mr. T as Sec of Muthafucking Defense!


Mr. T was the best.. Big Guy had a Mr. T's starter kit.. man that guy with his gold & tight jeans.. phew..


Does the fact that Ellen Degeneres soul sister, Melissa Etheridge, has joined Team-Black-Guy in a official capacity strengthen your desires, or weaken them.

now, based on your calculus:

D. Patrick = B. Obama = MC Hammer

How would you feel about a Condoleeza Rice/ Barney Frank ticket?

Please advise.


It is with mixed emotions when I heard the news about ED joining Team Black. I'm still searching without success for re-runs of her show.. She was a great book store owner..

How would I feel about that ticket? I'd fucking puke everyday of their administration if they were elected.. (though I do like Condi)


so it's safe to say the only ticket you would support is of the Anglo/ Euro 97' nature:

Silvio Berlosconi/ Jaques Chirac/ Gerhard Schroder/ Dominique Villapin/ Tony Blair . . .

okay, how bout this one?:

Putin

I'd vote for Condi in a NY minute. And Frank seems to be the most powerful guy in Congress, no joke, he's driving policy.

Pile-driving it.


I agree - Frank has what it takes to get things done..

Putin & 8 more years of GW -- What a ticket!!

Yoga-Related-Activity

Never have I been so busy doing nothing.

Well that's not true, completely false actually. At the old Investment Bank, it was mandated: "every employee must be busy doing nothing from 6 AM to 6 PM Mon-Fri, and half-days of busy nothing on weekends, to be signed off by their respective middle-manager, managing nothing, busily."

Last check, they were still in business, although doing less of nothing than ever.

So, as hard as I try, I will never be able to keep up that tempo, but here in LA, the yoga mecca, I am able to maintain a 7 day per week, 12 hour day of yoga and yoga-related-activity.

Yoga and Yoga-Related-Activity (YRA) consists of:

meditation (1 hour)
classes (2-3 hrs)
bodywork/ massage (2 hrs)
spa (1 hr)
teaching/ assisting/ volunteering (2 hrs)
herbal tea sipping (1 hr)
vegan cooking (1 hr)
talking about yoga (1 hr)
downloading yoga music (10 minutes)
yoga Internets/ yoga blog (15 minutes)
riding yoga bicycle to and fro (1-2 hrs)

This can all be done for about $200 a month (without being paid for any yoga services). Amazing.

*In response to the anger mail I received regarding last week's Obama Muthafucka piece, I will be blogging politically now, nonstop thru the election.

Today, I'm still nauseous from the gas tax holiday. It's been over a week, but I keep throwing up.

When I recover, it's on.
