I don't know what these people are gonna do in forty or fifty years when half the country looks Filipino.

that's exactly why they are freaking out so much right now:  they've seen the future and it is not run by them anymore

another guy who was on one job with me, an eastern shore boy, about 40 years old with a houseful of kids "all by the same woman," he told me without being asked...anyway....when he was a kid, he and some pals would get in the truck and run down to one of the local black neighborhoods 'Sweeping.'  The object was "to smack a stillupfront with the broom" as the truck drove by.  It got interesting if you dropped the broom:  they stopped the truck and you had to run get it back.

Very common in the trades and it is amazing how many guys will readily admit it.  I usually don't say anything because you are not going to change their opinion.

the porta potties in the southern jobsites are all racism and bigotry.  up in the north jersey and new york it's all pro-union anti-scab shtein.  i always found that interesting. 
I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood.

judging by the graffiti i've seen, the trades guys definitely don't like the mexican workers here.  they do seem to enjoy the mexican ladies, or at least, specific parts of them, however.

Reid has no choice but to sink or swim with Kolb. If he gives up on Kolb he might not see the end of his ill-advised extension. Lurie's a clown but even he couldn't dismiss that bad of a hack job by Reid.

Vick isn't the future of this team, or any team. He's a short term fix, which isn't what the Eagles need. Kold needs to start and play. Then we'll end up finding out if he's a bust or not. But theres no way he should be judged on a quarter and a half of football against what is supposed to be one of if the best if not the best team in the NFC.

Anyone expecting the Eagles to win anything this year is drinking too much kool aid. The playoffs will be a gift if it happens.

I hope I'm wrong, but I doubt it.


ice grillin you

this is why i said months ago vick is not the kind of guy who should be backing up cobb...it should have been a non descript old ass veteran
