Free Flu Shots Cause Harm

I was at a free flu shot clinic recently when I had the most amazing thing happen. I was mingling with the crowd, announcing that free flu shots were available, asking people if they'd had theirs yet. I approached one young man, African American, and asked him if he'd has his yet this year. He said "no" and asked me a question about the shot, and before I could answer it, his girlfriend (presumably?) said, and I am not joking here, "Oh no! Uh-uh! Don't you take dey medicine, you ain't gots no idea whats in it. They says its good for you? Remember that's what they told the Indians." WTF??? Just further proof ignorance is alive and well, and knows no race, color, or education level boundries. These were college students......

I think we all know about the blankets with small pox. No one can deny the horrible outcome of the US's brutal policy towards the native inhabitants of this land. This exchange however, reveals the real danger in a sophomoric level of knowledge. These kids know just enough to categorize everything in their world into narrowly defined stereotypes. This WILL NOT work out well in the end I think. I guess it's all just one great big conspiracy. And that makes me The Man I guess. *sigh*

**NEWS FLASH***

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA SOLD TO MEXICO!

In a stunning display of financial acumen, the United States offloaded Southern California to the Mexican government today. After months of undercover negotiations, the final ceremony took
place at an agave farm high the hinterlands of Jalisco. The Mexican Deputy Minister of Food Safety and Plumbing Code was on hand to meet with Condaleeza Rice and disgraced republican lobbyist Jack Abramhoff (released for this special occasion) and to present a check.








Things had been going pretty well up until Condi accused Sr. Ramirez of "having a chicken dick" After this setback, the U.S. had to settle for $15.43 for all of Southern California. The people who live there think its a pretty raw deal, but quite frankly the Adminstration thinks its off-loaded a real pain in the
ass part of the country. Now Paris Hilton is Mexico's problem, not ours.














Some of the locals were asked to comment on the development. Thad Winters, a 19 year old community college student had this to say: "Whoa! No kidding bro? Like, that's no joke? Right on! That's totally sweet. Can I still wear my douche bag outfit and walk around with an unearned sense of entitlement?" Another brainless Hollywood moron had this to say, "Oh, you mean that country to south were I get my coke?" Attempts were made to locate anyone in the area who had a job of any redeeming quality, but it seems all the teachers and biologists were actually at work, not rambling the streets shopping for fashionable pets.

The following list is graphical representation of just whats so great about GETTING RID OF THIS PLACE:






Okay, so the TMNTs aren't so bad, but the rest of them will be good riddance to bad news. Since southern California is basically a miserably polluted desert, it will be a great fit as the new northern border of of Mexico. We'll keep the valley and water to ourselves, and you SoCal'ers are welcome to move north. Oh, by the way, in exchange for an apology for Speedy Gonzalez, Mexico agreed to let us use Los Angeles as a nuclear test range. Turns out even they think that place is hopeless! ADIOS AMIGOS!
