Hey, long time...

I've been slacking, I'll admit it. It's called "life getting in the way". A couple things this morning.

First off, the whole don't tread on me thing is wearing me out. Not that I don't see any valid argument at all for it (just not very much argument). It's just that WHERE WERE ALL OF YOU WHEN THE PATRIOT ACT WAS GETTING PASSED? It would have made a hell of a lot more sense at that time. Second part of this question is how do you feel about the Patriot Act now? Is it still "keeping us safe from the bad brown people who believe in some crazy god (that also believes in Jesus)?"

The second thing: Florida is filled with mouth breathing rednecks. Mouth breathing rednecks love football, especially college football. Now you know why the Rays aren't getting more draw. Baseball doesn't have Taylor Swift or Hank Williams Jr singing some lame intro song to every game. Baseball starts unceremoniously and the intricacies of the sport are not understood by them (the intricacies of football aren't understood by them either but all the smashing of bodies together like a crash up school bus figure 8 derby is enough to keep them interested). Tampa Bay is a great baseball team which isn't understood by a large portion of Florida.

Note: Most sports fans are "mouth breathers" but football is far and away worse.
