Amazing what you can find when you're bored on youtube.

This is sort of funny, this is my sister's house after a weekend of LAN parties... My nephew is the ringleader of the party, he's the one standing in the back taking a picture from another angle... And yes, this is her living room, from what I have been told, there were approximately 20 computers hooked up in there, and more in the dining room...

An English-only ordering policy has thrust one of Philadelphia's best-known cheesesteak joints into the national immigration debate.

Situated in a South Philadelphia immigrant neighborhood, Geno's -- which together with its chief rival, Pat's King of Steaks, forms the epicenter of an area described as "ground zero for cheesesteaks" -- has posted small signs telling customers, "This Is AMERICA: WHEN ORDERING `SPEAK ENGLISH."'

"They don't know how lucky they are. All we're asking them to do is learn the English language," said Geno's owner Joseph Vento, 66. "We're out to help these people, but they've got to help themselves, too." (2006)

Next thing you know, they'll be trying to enforce what kinds of cheese are allowed on a cheesesteak. Try to take away my whiz, and we got problems.

I can't blame them for posting that sign.  I have the same policy.  You don't force an entire country to speak your language when you go to live there.  We speak English here, if you don't speak english, then you better learn it damn quick and in a hurry.  Or at least buy your language - English dictionary like tourists do to go on vacation.  Americans already have to deal so much with other languages and countries.. from our jobs being exported to calling up a company for technical support and having someone who speaks horrible English try to talk us through fixing something.  Or the telemarketers who barely speak English calling me up, and mispronouncing my first name.. It's Amber.. it's not that difficult.  Americans mispronounce my last name all the time, no biggie, but you better damned well say my first name right.  I don't think we should have to learn a different language to accomodate the influx of illegal aliens who aren't trying to become citizens, or even attempting to learn our language.

found this in my e-mail today and just had to share~lol

I had ambitions of finding a simple, uncomplicated part time job after retiring from teaching. Unfortunately, as I have gotten a little older, I have become a little less tolerant. So after landing my new job as a Wal-Mart greeter, a good find for many retirees, I lasted less than a day......

About two hours into my first day on the job a very loud, unattractive, mean-acting woman walked into the store with her two kids, yelling obscenities at them all the way through the entrance. As I had been instructed, I said pleasantly, "Good morning, and welcome to Wal-Mart. Nice children you have there. Are they twins?"

The ugly woman stopped yelling long enough to say, "Hell no, they ain't twins. The oldest one 's 9, and the other one's 7. Why the hell would you think they're twins? Are you blind, or just stupid?"

So I replied, "I'm neither blind nor stupid, Ma'am, I just can't believe you got laid twice. Have a good day and thank you for shopping at Wal-Mart."

My supervisor said I probably wasn't cut out for this line of work.

 ;D ;D ;D
