I'm managing my diabetes well, so I may last another ten years. This would be about the age that my fellow diabetic Waylon Jennings passed. If Jesus really likes me I may hang for another twenty years. (Of course, if Jesus really,really likes me He may take me home while the Rays are in first place.)
I have maybe ten to twenty Cinco de Mayos left. On every single one of those I will be wearing an American flag.
On a related front, I quit watching local news last week. It's sweeps month and the Tampa FOX affilliate decided they would rather pander to Hispanic viewers than accurately report on the AZ law. If the FOX affilliate is doing this God knows what the other stations are doing.
update from 'fly - first off, please don't scare your co-blogger and your readers!
Second, you quit watching just in time to miss what the Media Research Center has noticed. The total so far is currently 37-3 - that's not the score of the last Eagles/Cowboys playoff game, but the ratio of media stories against the law vs. in favor. This is a law, incidentally, that has 70% support among the citizens of Arizona. We're told ad infinitum that if the proportion of a small subset of things (football coaches, lawyers, athletes, nuclear physicists) does not equal the proportion of people at large, then it's RACIST! and SEXIST! and EVILIST! Well, then, what does this say about the media and their objective reporting of what they see? How can they find such a large majority against such a popular measure?
Third - or, ok, first again - remember the old gag we used to have: Jesus doesn't just love us, He likes us, and does neat things for us.
