Exactly how much crap will Americans take from China?

Inferior products, egregious human rights violations, and mid level officials bashing the dollar; when will enough be enough? As our relationship with china becomes more and more connected it also becomes more strained. It started with pet food, then Thomas the tank, tires, the ever-popular antifreeze toothpaste, and the latest development, date rape aqua-dots. And that’s just the crizap they are trying to sell me, I personally am far more concerned about labor camps and re-education programs, the lack of personal family planning rights, and environmental problems. China is horribly polluting the Yangtze River its “lifeline” with dredging, industrial pollutants, and over fishing, costing the earth one of its oldest aquatic mammals, the Yangtze River dolphin earlier this year. The Chinese stock market is precariously teetering on the verge of a huge correction from a feeding frenzy of IPO’s and over-valuation, due to government manipulations of the exchange rate and refusal to appreciate the Yuan. We have a country with mobile death chambers for its citizenry, but as a government won’t make efforts to regulate its manufacturing sector. China’s Boom is being built at the expense of millions of Chinese citizens who do not have many fundamental rights, and that bothers me. So what’s a gal to do? Well from now on I am making sure all of my inferior crap goods come from India. Oh, wait a minute……..

Just to catch you up...

Well i have been on and off so far.....but here is a quick run-down of the last few days..

-it seems that an applebees is going in by the new wal-mart

-apparently there was a food debacle at the cristmas carousel -not much of it, and bad hors d'oeurves.

-Halloween had a lot of great activities for kids, but less for adults this year due to the weeknight

-cahoots is closing up shop, ill miss those hush-puppies

-sadly no dia de los muertos celebrations


im still hanging around planning on trying to find some delicous crab sometime soon -thats harder than it looks in abilene, so wish me luck

Jonny Cash & broadway

ok ...i know its a stretch but you think to yourself it could be a good show right?... Well it was ..lets say -not good.
it was bad bad bad... bad sets, bad writing, bad intrepretation. it was however diverting. and i had a good time but it had little to do with the show. Lets hope the next one is better.

-hey my review is much nicer than the New York Times review of this disaster.

ITS CRAPTASTIC!

ok so im not perez hilton or anything... but its harder than you think comming up with this crap......

having said that: heres todays craptacular blog.

As a person who tries to be as environmentally freindly as possible i am always watching for others like myself... not complete kashi-luvin wierdos who only wear burlap underwear, but normal people who occaisonally feel bad about the disgusting amounts of trash that we (americans) produce and try to do better.
I am pleased to announce that my prius count is up to about 7, i think i double counted a dark blue one, but im sure there are a couple i missed, so its pretty close. I have the urge to waive at the prius drivers, but since I'm not one im sure they would think i was an idiot. So props to all you guys in A-town driving around in your prius's (prii?). i myself am holding out for the next generation of suv hybrids so i can be totally ridiculous about the whole thing. But I did change all my lightbulbs to those swirly ones, mainly because leonardo dicaprio told me too..... but whats done is done.. My next hope for abilene is maybe a Bio-Willy station....because lets face it a lot of us drive diesels or have one around and it would totally rock to be able to use some bio-diesel. So Willie if your reading this we need you in Abilene.
