Contradictions
January 18, 2008
I’m entertained when I go back and read old blog entries and realize that I am just so full of shit. When no one else is available, I can argue with myself. No matter what stand I take on a subject, you can bet there is a 50/50 chance that I will eventually disagree.
For example, I wrote something about pitying illegal immigrants a couple of weeks ago in Politics and Prejudice. And then I went on to say how they should still follow the law and their children should not be considered American citizens.
But then I heard a story about a boy who has lived here since he was 2-years old, a straight-A student, and how Governor Huckabee of Arkansas decided he should be allowed to receive a state college scholarship because he maintained his grades and did all the right things to deserve one.
And I agree with Huckabee and am glad he gave the kid the scholarship. Well, that’s kind of contradictory, huh?
It pleases me when I realize I still have a heart.
And then I noticed that in Disneyworld at Christmas I state that “I would perhaps be happy if there were naked dwarves in the streets pissing on light poles.”
If you really knew me you would know that I hesitate to even take a late train due to the fact that there may be drunken bastards on there who might possibly relieve themselves of some type of bodily fluid.
Evidently there is a part of me who would like to be big and blustery, rough and tough, more fun than a circus.
I just can’t seem to get into the clown car with all those sneezing freaks.
I also wrote an entry entitled Excessive regarding Disneyworld. Today when I pull up the category Bitching I see that listed directly underneath is 30 Days of Christmas. Well, damn if I’m not practically as excessive as Disney.
I am never better than the things or people I am complaining about.
Nothing is black and white.
