has anyone heard anything about them finding bigfoot in georgia?  i have heard rumors and they were supposed to release photos on friday.  i heard they found remains of the creature.   i havn't been able to find any info on any news website about it.  just wondering if anyone else has or it just a rumor?

I JUST READ OVER SOME OF THE CAPTAINS TEST ON THE WEBSITE, ANYONE WHO THINKS THIS TEST IS RACIALLY BIASED IS SMOKING CRACK.  IF YOUR NOT SMART ENOUGH TO PASS THE TEST, MINORITY OR NOT, YOU DON'T NEED TO BE A LEADER.  AA WERE DISCRIMINATED AGAINST ---- 30-40 YRS AGO,  NOT TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!  SO QUIT YOUR WHINING, MAYBE YOU SHOULD PUT YOUR EFFORTS INTO STUDYING FOR THE EXAM INSTEAD OF CRYING ABOUT HOW HARD YOU HAVE IT.   OR GO TO THE POST OFFICE, THEY'LL GIVE YOU FIVE EXTRA POINTS ON YOUR TEST THERE!!!!!  JUST BECAUSE THE DEPT IS MADE UP OF 45% AA DOENS'T NECESSARILY MEAN THAT THE LEADERSHIP RATIO SHOULD REFLECT THAT.  I KNOW SOME AA OFFICERS ON THE DEPT,  THEY AREN'T COMPLAINING ABOUT HOW HARD IT WAS,  I GUESS THEIR INTELLIGIENT ENOUGH TO PASS IT.  I'M SO SICK OF HEARING ABOUT HOW BAD THE AA HAVE IT.   CA CA,   THEY HAVE IT BETTER NOW THAN ANYONE ELSE IN THIS COUNTRY,  IT'S CALLED AFFIRMATIVE ACTION.  I'VE HEARD OF  POLICE DEPT'S AND OTHER FIRE DEPT'S CHANGING THEIR TESTS TO "MAKE IT EASIER FOR THE AA'S TO PASS) MAYBE THEY SHOULD HAVE ONE IN SPANISH TOO FOR THE ONES WHO CAN'T SPEAK ENGLISH OR BOSNIAN? BOTTOM LINE IS, IF YOU CAN'T PASS THE DAMN TEST, THEN EITHER SUCK IT UP OR MIGHT I SUGGEST MCDONALDS IS ALWAYS HIRING.  

WHY IS IT THAT EVERYTIME AN AFRICAN AMERICAN IS SHOT BY POLICE,  EVERYONE THINKS ITS THE POLICE'S FAULT AND THEY REACTED TOO HARSHLY???  I SAW THE INTERVIEW WITH THE AUNT.  IT SHOULDN'T REALLY MATTER WHAT TYPE OF GUN THE PUNK HAD,   HE POINTED IT AT POLICE AND GOT SHOT,  HE GOT WHAT HE DESERVED.  AT 15 OR 16 YRS OLD,  THEY KNOW BETTER!!!!!!  I HAVN'T HEARD THE COMPLETE STORY,  BUT MY OPINION IS IF THE KID HAD A GUN THEN I DON'T BLAME THE OFFICER FOR SHOOTING HIM.  I PERSONALLY DON'T BELIEVE THE OFFICER SHOULD HAVE TO WAIT TO BE SHOT AT FIRST.  THE AA'S WANT TO CRY OUT SOME KIND OF RACISM,  IF A WHITE KID HAD BEEN SHOT BY A AA OFFICER THEN NOTHING WOULD BE SAID.  I AM CURIOUS,  WAS THE FEMALE OFFICER WHITE OR BLACK?   IF SHE WAS A LITTLE PARANOID, WHO COULD BLAME HER,  WHEN A COP WAS JUST KILLED BY SOME KID.  THE RELATIVES SHOULD HAVE BEEN PAYING MORE ATTENTION TO WHO THE KIDS FRIENDS ARE AND WHERE THEY HAND OUT AND MAYBE THEY WOULD FIND OUT THAT THEIR TEENAGER ISN'T SO INNOCENT. 

MY HEART GOES OUT TO THE FAMILY OF THE FALLEN OFFICER KILLED LAST NIGHT.  I DON'T NORMALLY AGREE WITH VIOLENCE, BUT IN THIS CASE, I HOPE THEY CATCH THE NO GOOD SOB'S THAT DID THIS AND I HOPE THEY DON'T MAKE IT TO JAIL.  I HONESTLY HOPE THEY FIND THEM FLOATING IN THE RIVER.  HOW CHICKENSHIT (PARDON MY FRENCH) DO YOU HAVE TO BE TO SHOOT A COP ON ROUTINE PATROL.  THEY CATCH CRIMINALS AND THE COURTS PUT THEM RIGHT BACK OUT THERE.   I'LL BET THE LOSERS WHO DID THE SHOOTING PROBABLY HAVE A CRIMINAL RECORD A MILE LONG.  WE NEED MORE JUSTICE IN THIS COUNTRY "DIRTY HARRY" STYLE.  WHAT'S REALLY SAD,  IF HE WOULD HAVE KILLED ON THE THOSE JERKS,  HE WOULD HAVE BEEN UP ON CHARGES AND THE NAACP WOULD HAVE BEEN CRYING BECAUSE THE COP SHOT THEM FOR NO REASON.   THE OFFICER WILL BE LUCKY TO GET ANY JUSTICE OUT OF THIS.  I HOPE YOU CITY COPS CATCH THESE MORONS AND TAKE CARE OF THEM,  IF YOU DON'T SHOOT THEM, AT LEAST BEAT THE HELL OUT OF THEM BEFORE YOU TAKE THEM IN, THEY DESERVE IT. 

i'm sick and tired of hearing politicians talking about affirmative action.  i agree minorities (especially african americans) were treated poorly in the past (like in the 60's).  it's not that way today.  everytime something happens to a aa i.e. shooting by a cop, all you hear is its racism, or they didn't get the job or promotion because the color of their skin.  BS.  yes, it was that way 40+ yrs ago but not today.  why should i not get a prombotion because i'm white, even though i'm qualified and maybe more experienced but it's given to someone else because they have a quota to fill?  sounds like racism to me.  i'm a firm believer,  if you can to the job with the qualifications required then you should be entitled to it without regard to race, sex, etc.  i didn't go the best high school compared to some, it means i have to study harder and work harder in other areas to make up for it.  i don't blame the system because i didn't put forth enough effort either on my part in school to get better grades.

I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHO DELETES THESE BLOGS,  LIKE THE ONE FROM MEZZ WHATEVER THERE NAME IS.   I DIDN'T AGREE WITH IT AND THINK THAT PERSON IS WELL,  AN ASS.  BUT I ALSO DON'T BELIEVE IN CENSORSHIP OF ANY KIND, WHETHER WE LIKE IT OR NOT,  IT IS THEIR OPINION AND HAVE A RIGHT TO EXPRESS IT. 

IT'S PRETTY SAD WHEN SOME OF THE SOLDIERS OVER IN IRAQ WILL COME HOME AND CAN'T EVEN HAVE A BEER BECAUSE THEIR NOT OLD ENOUGH!!!!  I THINK IF YOUR OLD ENOUGH AND MATURE ENOUGH TO SERVE YOUR COUNTRY, THEN YOUR OLD ENOUGH AND HAVE DESERVED THE RIGHT TO HAVE A COLD ONE OR WHATEVER.  I DON'T EVEN DRINK,  BUT I THINK ITS WRONG TO SEND THE KIDS INTO HARMS WAY AND WHEN THEY COME HOME TREAT THEM LIKE KIDS AGAIN. 

EVERYBODY WANTS TO BLAME THE BARTENDERS/OWNERS, WAITERS AND WAITRESSES FOR PEOPLE WHO LEAVE THEIR ESTABLISHMENT DRUNK.  AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, AS LONG AS THEY CERTIFY THE PERSON DRINKING IS OF LEGAL AGE,  THEN THE RESPONSIBILITY LIES WITH THE INDIVIDUAL DOING THE DRINKING.  AFTER ALL THAT PERSON IS AN ADULT OF LEGAL AGE.  THESE OTHER PEOPLE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO BABYSIT THEIR BUTTS.  EVERYBODY WANTS MORE LAWS, TOUGHER LAWS TO CRACK DOWN ON THIS AND THAT.  WE HAVE TOO MANY AS IT IS AND THEY CAN'T KEEP UP WITH THE ONES WE HAVE SO WHY PUT MORE ON THE BOOKS.  I ALSO DON'T BELIEVE IN DUI'S TAKING PEOPLE LICENSE AWAY,  THE LIMIT IS SO LOW NOW THAT IT DOESN'T TAKE BUT A COUPLE DRINKS AND YOUR CONSIDERED LEGALLY DRUNK.  BUT I DO THINK IF YOUR PULLED OVER FOR DUI, THEN GET A HEFTY FINE AND COMMUITY SERVICE,  DON'T SUSPEND SOMEONE'S LICENSE SO THEY CAN'T WORK,  ESPECIALLY IF THEY DIDN'T GET THE DUI COMING OR GOING TO WORK.  IF YOU INJURE SOMEONE WHILE DUI THEN CALL IT ATTEMPTED MURDER OR ASSAULT WITH A DEADLY WEAPON AND CHARGE AND SENTENCE THEM ACCORDINGLY,  IF YOU KILL SOMEONE WHILE DUI THEN CALL IT MURDER, NOT MANSLAUGHTER,  AND PAY FOR THAT ACCORDINGLY.  IT MIGHT JUST MAKE PEOPLE THINK BEFORE THEY GET BEHIND THE WHEEL.  HONESTLY, RIGHT NOW, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO GET,  COUPLE HUNDRED DOLLAR FINE, MAYBE A NIGHT IN JAIL IF NO ONE BAILS YOU OUT.  LOSE YOUR LICENSE FROM THREE MONTHS TO A YR I GUESS DEPENDING ON WHAT STATE YOU LIVE IN.  HIRE A FANCY LAWYER AND PROBABLY NOT EVEN HAVE YOUR LICENSE SUSPENDED.  ANYWAY  JUST A THOUGHT.

all this talk about illegals and valley park,   what i think is worse is the fact that some come here legally and then immediately get social security benefits and money to start their own business.  years ago my cousin was in the navy and married a fillipino woman,  okay she immedately became a citizen,  don't have a problem with that.  but then HER immediate family,  mother, father, sisters and brothers ALL got to come to the states and guess what,  received social security and got money to open their own market.   let someone who was born here try and get benefits like that.  you have to jump through hoops to get social security.   and at best,  you might be able to get a small business loan (not a grant).   to me this situation is worse than the illegals.  although i think the illegals should have their butts deported immediately.

i was watching idol last night (out of pure boredom i guess),  anyway i saw that ford, coke and some other companies were sponsoring this idol gives back crap.  am i wrong, or did ford just lay off a bunch of employees??  the car companies are whining about how much money they lost, but they will donate millions to this.  MOST, of the money will end up in africa,  sorry,  but i really don't give a rat's petute if the africans starve or not,  move out of the desert and find work.  some of it (i'm sure a very little portion) will end up here in the states.  i don't have a problem with coke and other companies donating all the money they want,  it's the companies like ford that are laying people off that bother me.

I JUST HEARD ON THE NEWS THAT THE FAMILY OF THE PARKWAY TEENAGER WHO KILLED HERSELF IS SUING BECAUSE THEY THINK IT IS THE SCHOOLS RESPONSIBILITY!  WHY?,  BECAUSE THEY CAUGHT HER WITH A CIGARETTE AND IT EMBARRASED HER SO SHE WENT HOME AND HUNG HERSELF.  I HAVE ONE QUESTION,  WERE WAS THE MOTHER, FATHER, OTHER FAMILY MEMEBERS?????  SHE WENT HOME WITH THE MOTHER,  WHEN WILL PEOPLE START TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR OWN ACTIONS AND PARENTS START TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR KIDS AND QUIT BLAMING SOMEONE ELSE WHEN SOMETHING GOES WRONG.  GET OFF YOUR FAT LAZY BUTTS AND TAKE CARE OF YOUR FAMILIES!!1
