YES, I'M A BAD AMERICAN

by George Carlin

 

I Am Your Worst Nightmare. I am a BAD American. I am George Carlin.

 

I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some mid level governmental functionary be it Democratic or Republican!

 

I'm in touch with my feelings and I like it that way, d**n it!

 

I think owning a gun doesn't make you a killer, it makes you a smart American.

 

I think being a minority does not make you noble or victimized, and does not entitle you to anything.

 

I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac, try to do it in English.

 

I think fireworks should be legal on the 4th of July.

 

I think that being a student doesn't give you any more enlightenment than working at Blockbuster. In fact, if your parents are footing the bill to put your pansy ass through 4 years plus, of college, you haven't begun to be enlightened.

 

I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God when and where they want to.

 

My heroes are John Wayne, Babe Ruth, Roy Rogers, and whoever canceled Jerry Springer.

 

I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor.

 

I know wrestling is fake and I don't waste my time arguing about it.

 

I think global warming is a big lie. Where are all those experts now, when I'm freezing my ass off during these long winters and paying, paying, paying?

 

I've never owned a slave, or was a slave, I didn't wander forty years In the desert after getting chased out of Egypt. I haven't burned any witches or been persecuted by the Turks and neither have you! So, shut-the-Hell-up already.

 

I want to know which church is it exactly where the Reverend Jesse Jackson practices, where he gets his money, and why he is always part of the problem and not the solution. Can I get an AMEN on that one?

 

I think the cops have every right to shoot your sorry ass if you're running from them.

 

I also think they have the right to pull your ass over if you're breaking the law, regardless of what color you are.

 

I think if you are too stupid to know how a ballot works, I don't want you deciding who should be running the most powerful nation in the world for the next four years.

 

I dislike those people standing in the intersections trying to sell me crap or trying to guilt me into making "donations" to their cause. These people should be targets.

 

I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child, it takes two parents.

 

And what the hell is going on with gas prices... again?

 

If this makes me a BAD American, then yes, I'm a BAD American.

Personally I think cops are too quick on the draw myself. I think they need to go back to revolvers so that they have to use their shots more wisely than just spraying the area until clip is empty. In cinci near here we had a guy shot several years ago (and wrongly to as he was a innocent) where they shot a total of 41 times and actuall hit him about 16 times and they were about 15 feet way. The guy was unarmed and did die from it and two of the cops emptied their clips or there would have be even more shots fired. What a$$'es.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Missing pieces of the Assembly   Detergency vs Solvency   Not the same thing. Detergency is the mechanism that surrounds solid particulates preventing amalgamation. Usually accompanied by a Dispersant whose job it is to keep those encapsulated particles in Suspension. Solvency keeps things that can be dissolved in solution.    Salt is a solid that can be dissolved. Pepper is a solid that cannot be dissolved. A detergent/dispersant is effective on pepper but a solvent is more effective on salt. As long as the solids remain in either state, dissolved or dispersed then they can be be removed with the oil upon change.    How many wranglers does it take to herd cats? Depends on how many cats your herding. How much sponge does it take to soak up water? How much water is there to soak up? Point is most oil blends start with some herding ability and next to zero sponge and recently even fewer wranglers are being sent to do the same job.    So you start with a dozen cowboys and zero cows but at the drive progresses you pick up cows along the way, but not cowboys. At some point you have more cows that the wranglers can handle and some leave the herd. Deposits. And the API has an acceptable number of cows they are willing to let loose. In the ideal world zero is the right number for he rancher but to the butcher....a few lost is fine. This cow is beat to death. Let's move on....   Solvency isn't something oils on the Walmart shelf care about AT ALL. Problem is, you motor does. Fuels driven varnish sticks rings and only a solvent can keep them in check. The bet is that the solids driven portion that plug the expander rings and the oil drain backs and VVT screens and AFM screens will be an issue long before varnish is. Not that it wont be but if they market well enough the consumer can be kept ignorant enough to either believe it is "normal" (A quart in 1 or 2K is normal) OR is kept at bay longer than the first owner is likely to hang on to the unit. Solvency cost money.    Now the OEM's have John Q. Public buffaloed into the belief that the number cows accumulated along the trail is a known and predictable CONSTANT. It isn't. Nor is the rate at which they crossed paths with them. Only the number of wrangles is constant. Or was. Each new generation of oil sees fewer and fewer of them.    So what happens when the number of cowboys is lower (lower TBN) with each seasons trail but the trial is longer (OCI) and the number of cows along that trail continues increase? (Conditions that promote deposits).    For awhile the blenders were on to something. Better bases are harder to degrade (fewer cows) but that was overtaken by a longer trail (OCI) and improved breeding (More cows) while continuing to reduce the cowboy staffing levels (TBN/Aniline #).    Marketing has been successful. We've fired most of the staff, cows breed line bunnies, the trail is ten times longer and we've convinced the boss his ranch is in better shape that it ever was.    That kids is just the cleaning side. The side few pay attention to.

      Looking for this part for my truck. They don't sell just that one piece and to get it you have to pay over $100 even used for the whole air tube. The piece the hose clamp snaps into that is held on by the screw and nut. If anyone has access to one please let me know.
