Hope everybody was fortunate enough to watch the local news on channel 12 a couple of nights ago. They had a story about a very special young lady named Holly. Holly is a relative(kinda). (my appologies to Holly for that) Holly just underwent a 2 year stay in the hospital, concluding with a double lung transplant. You all got to hear me whine about my hospital stay and the little surgery they did. I'm a wimp. Holly isn't! Turns out that she's quite the fighter actually. I have no right to ever complain about anything again! She's my hero!
A quick shout out also to the family of the organ donor! What an incredibly selfless act of courage and honor in such an incredibly difficult time! It's good to know that through your despair, you were able to bring salvation and smiles to another family! Everybody sign up to be an organ donor! You don't need 'em where you're going anyway!
Okay, enough of that. WHY THE HELL DO WE CELEBRATE CINCO DE MAYO IN THE U.S.OF FRICKIN A? I read today where it's a bigger holiday here than it is in Mexico! Yep, you read that right! We are such a back-ward ass country now that we celebrate other countries holidays even if they don't! My personal opinion is that when you get off the boat (or out of the river) and decide to live in this country, you take an oath to celebrate the holidays that we celebrate here! I don't wanna hear about Cinco De Mayo, or Dies Y Seis, or any other foreign holiday. If you miss 'em, go back!
And while we're at it, learn to speak English!(or at least the version that passes for english that we hillbillies speak!) That's the language that the founders of this country spoke, therefore, it's the (un)official language. I shouldn't have to pay my tax dollars to teach your kids how to speak english!(actually, I don't think I should have to pay my tax dollars for anything when it concerns you) And if you want to fly the flag of your native country, go be a resident of that country. There should only be 1 flag flying here. And it ain't red, white & green!
