I go away to New Orleans for a little rest from "you people." and I come back, and my emailbox is clogged with all kind of postings! Mostly apologies, and a lot of PC crap, and Kyle trying to rile yer asses, and half of you being so tight-assed you didn't get it. Then! To my astonishment, Someone lists (with the proper asterisks) the following! "jap" is a racial slur and no better than "n*gger", "sp*c", "w*p", "ch*nk", "d*go" or "k*ke" --or "wh*tey". Did you notice? R*d-n*cks are left out! We're still fair game! Never mind that we fill the ranks in the military, it is still OK, even among the "Politically Correct" to snicker at red-necks. Well, there you go. I am serious now. You people need to lighten up. I shot this picture on the way home tonight. It is a used car lot out on the highway from Baton Rouge to Opelousas. The guy who owns it is probably not a redneck, most likely a Cajun. His forebears came to a new part of America before it became the USA. For your viewing pleasure, and with malice toward none, I offer one man's (USA) patriotic offering to the world. http://www.sonc.com/go-rilla.htm Regards, SonC (Sonny Carter) http://www.sonc.com - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
