With corrupt fools like that running the local government Greasemans quote takes on a whole different meaning that it would at face value, something the non-locals would not understand.

I edited my comment to add a little background for those NOT familiar with the local DC politics......with that to put a show based locally here you will see where that came from.....like I said....if you were HERE...(meaning local to DC) you would see his comment in a different light.


Marion Berry makes Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson seem like soft spoken upstanding people.

It wasn't the blatantly rascist comment many what you to think it was....but........you had to be there. Both of those other two frequently say far worse and nothing is ever said about it.....


In any case...I'm working even if its at home.....off the clock.

Working. The grocery store only closes completely on Christmas and at noon on Thanksgiving. My boss just thinks me being out of school is for his benifit, so I can be there that much earlier to stock the freaking groceries.

so some day

you can be the boss like i am.

and i will be working because i need to make money. so it is nice to have the choice but most small business owners like myself, choose to work.

i need one of those plates for my car that says "i owe, i owe, it off to work i go".
