Stupid instruction manual
by rhett ini got a new dvd player for christmas.
when i tried to hook it up i coudln't figure it out so i thought i'd actually use the instruction manual.
as it turns out the manual was written in a foreign country by people who don't understand english at all, was translated from japanese, into spanish, into greek, into french and finally into english.

Some one broke in my house yesterday
by rhett inthere's this guy who i used to be friends with who thought that the only reason my kids loved me was because i rewarded them.
of course, i had to prove him wrong.

How the bible backs the idea of slave reparations
by rhett inalot has been said at the idea of giving money to all the african-americans who are in this country because their ancestors were taken as slaves.
personally, i think its a load of crap.
i don't believe people today should have to pay for the mistakes of their ancestors or that other people should hit the proverbial lottery because of who their ancestors were.
