It gets better. My best friend in high school was a dude named Felton Pilate, founding member of the band Con Funk Shun. They made a soul Hajj to Memphis to study and learn from the masters, the Bar Kays. I was going to post their vid in the disco thread, but I think they are more funk than disco. My friend Felton is singing lead vocals. If your interested Grinch I am willing to share my experiences with you of growing up black. ;D

I need to get some Stax reissue stuff on CD.  I'm sure you own tons.  Such an important music label.  I saw a great documentary on some cable channel about a month ago.

Ask yourselves this;

When was the last time Grinch ever, ever posted anything supportive or comforting to anyone here?

Can you remember? Matty the Damned sure as shit can't. There may have been a time, but recent events may have interfered with one's memory.

I could post a withering stream of invective here, and reduce that deficient old man to a smoking wreck, but I won't. His obscene comparison of my bashing to people's responses to his heartless and misanthropic ranting here reveal him to be what he is.

Enjoy your lonely, Grinch.

Purely in the interest of even-handedness, Grinch does type out supportive posts from time to time. A recent one:

I'm so glad to hear that he won't have to endure interthecal (In the spinal fluid) or bone marrow injections!
His attitude sounds great so hang in there.
I found really consistent almost fanatical adherence to the mouth washes they gave me helped tremendously with the mouth sores.
Ask the nurses about "swish and spit and swish and swallow"  They'll know what you mean.  He'll end up with discolored teeth but hey they can be cleaned.

Hang in there and if he ever needs someone to just vent about chemo to just drop me a PM.

I want to add that yes, Jack did send me a lovely PM.

Whenever something happens, Jack is one of the first to check in. Despite the fact that he rants on like the bastard child of Ross Perot, Barry Goldwater and David Duke, we all know that he's truly a good egg. Jack's comments in these forums do not portray what he's really like. Kind, sensitive and genuine.

The same cannot be said for the Grinch.

Jack and I have exchanged PMs that range from supportive to salacious, and I consider him a friend, even though I do not play golf.

Considering screennames can occasionally be enlightening. Taking the moniker of a mean-spirited cartoon figure that robs children of their Xmas hardly inspires the warm fuzzies in me, but perhaps I'm remembering things incorrectly.

Count me in Jack's corner also....

he's always one of the first to offer me support, and I think he's a great guy (even though I won't discuss politics with him)  ;)

Oooo.....that's mean.   

Honestly though, I'd prefer someone else than Hillary Clinton.  She's too far to the right for my taste since she and many other democrats have allowed the right-wing noise machine to drag them so far to the right that they look more like left of center republicans than democrats.

I've heard it said that by comparison, to the majority of the industrialized world, America's two party system appears to consist of the right wing party (democrats) and the far right wing party (republicans).

It's very true.  In any other industrialized country our Republicans would be a decidedly fringe, extremist party and marginalized.  A conservative like Sarkozy in France I would imagine is more along the lines of a "centrist" US Dem, but it's hard to effectively make comparisons.  Anyway, you could make the argument that Europe and Japan's welfare programs were more a result of WW2 war devastation more than alturism, as they had to quickly recover in ways that the US did not.  These programs are now ingrained in the culture.

This really is no different than Molten Storm making the statement Scratch a Conservative, Scratch a racists.  Both are bigoted attacks.

This is a prime example of you taking my statement (which was a quote of someone else, btw) and pulling it WAY out of context. I said it has been "in my own personal experience" because the people I know who are die-hard republicans, are admittedly die-hard conservatives, and they are self-admittingly racist. I also said, which you neglect to reference, that I know that statement is NOT completely true. Therefore, your accusation of me making a sweeping generalization is unfounded because that's not what I said. You've already made up your mind about all of us, so what's the point in discussion?

However, since you insist upon crucifying me, shall I provide the hammer, nails, and two-by-fours?

I've already apologized several times over for making a statement (another quote) that was taken offensively when I did not mean for it to be taken as such, yet you still rub my nose in it.

**If I'm put in time out, Moderators, so be it. I will not stand by and hold my tongue while someone drags my name through the mud unjustifiably.**
"Love is always patient and kind. It is never jealous. Love is never boastful nor conceited. It is never rude or selfish. It does not take offense and is not resentful. Love takes no pleasure in other people's sins, but delights in the truth. It is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes." - 1 Corinthians 13:4-7, adaptation in A Walk To Remember

Another band that you might have heard of, Sly and the Family Stone came out of the town where I went to high school in Vallejo, Ca. Sly was a few years ahead of me but we use to catch his act before he hit it big in a place called the Dream Bowl. Multi-cultural, I think Sly and the Family Stone should rank in the top ten of American musical groups. They were incredible.
