Wart on the Ass of America.....

motorcycles suck.................... america`s ingrown toenail........ well anyways.....i got a buddy who moved to prague about 6-7 years ago. so last summer i went out to visit him and got to see an amazing city in a great country. pretty progessive culture in a country that has been taken over by so many others for so many years.

art, architecture, lack of religious brain-washing, open-minded...... (and before the comments come in about, `well, move there`, shut the fuck up. i love were i live but you gotta get out and see the world or your world gets very small and so does your mind) well anyways, my buddy has been with this wonderful slavic princess and their future is looking bright. we spent our time exploring the city and them being locals, i got to see a different side than most tourists. well conversation would drift towards politics because of the current world matters at the time such as iraqi war, new elections, imperialism, things of such. the slavic goddess asks me about our parties, the conservative party and our liberal party. i tell her it`s not quite like that and she says everything she reads is about liberals screwing up this or that and the conservatives being very religious but never hearing the liberal party saying `well, the conservatives did this.......` she said the conservative party seems to blames american societies downfall on the liberals.... drugs, homosexuals, lack of religion. couldn`t help but laugh. got me to thinking about what words really mean, not just what people put as their `definitions`. so i got websters dictionary to look up a couple words..... please, this is going somewhere........................................................................... conservative adj.desire to preserve existing institutions// moderate, cautious// old-fashioned// considered to involve little risk ........................................................ liberal adj. giving freely//generously large //not subject to the common prejudices or conventions// favorable to individual liberty, social reform and the removal of economic restraints.

i`ve changed my mind................

by definition, it seems that most people that ride motorcycles would be declared, `liberals`. read again what liberals are if you feel like arguing.........................dynamite joe................... mike d.........the nash.

the men that started america by definition were not conservatives. they were clearly liberal minded great men that took chances.

if i get comments about our current affairs such as`socialism`; again, shut the fuck up, what do you think medicaid and social security is........ privitize social security? wakeup, if people have extra money we spend it............

the latest outcry is `what about the debt we`re leaving future generations`. shut the fuck up, the iraqi war, bank bail-outs, car industry bail-outs, a little late with that rhetoric...... our vets will be paying forever personally, these are kids that were told to kill other people, you truely never recover from that. so all you partiots better get in line and start giving and helping our new group of `war casualty` vets, jobs, dealing with depression, suicides and quit worrying about yourselves and your homes and your businesses and your cars...... and `where`s MY bail-out... shut the fuck up. THAT`S the real problem, everybody is out to get theirs.... why should they have a house, i deserve one too... they got a car and big screen t.v., what about ME? some people are just dumb-shits and don`t get all the stuff that everyone has...... simply put, because you`re a dumb fuck.

well how many people are getting in line now for their fair share?

this seems to boil down to just greed..............

motorcycles keep me sane, i guess they don`t suck...i`m sorry.

i still have so much more to whine about but i have a headache and i`m going riding for abit........i rest.

Merry Christmas............ love, Mr. Schaaf

"where`s my shirt, Where`s my shirt"? listen, i tell him, you`re not the only guy waitin for stuff, settle down, people have lives...... well yesterday noah comes screaming into the house....... a huge box spilling out with goodies..... yea, he got his t-shirt..... plus # skateboard deck, posters , stickers, hats...... seriously mr. schaaf you dun spoiled that boy..... but sincerly thank you very much.... maxie, you are so very special... ( you get noah`s e-mail?)

He`s gonna be all attitude today in school.... probably not, he`s a really cool kid. thanks max.

Lesson #6 Literature The Giver..........

Well the lesson today boys and girls will be about the wonderful required childrens book, The Giver. Yes, you heard me, if you have a child that is part of california`s curriculum, you will be probably reading this short, engaging story. It`s kinda sad, I for sure wouldn`t have heard about or read this book because my level of literature is so pretentious, I wouldn`t of heard about some pre-teen required reading. Hence, thank you goes out to my kids.......READ THIS BOOK..... It is VERY quick and easy to read and despite receiving many honors and awards there are still folks that try to ban it. Idiots.

The Giver is by Lois Lowery and the story goes on to be set in a future society that at first seems utopian in concept. The more you read, the more you see something is definitely fucked up. I think it`s easy to say, keep your eye on everyone: not to the point of paranoia. just enough to focus on the truth or something close to it. This book has been called inappropriate for young children probably because of the fear that your child might think out of the box and not get sucked in to the propoganda adults feed them.. religion, what is right and what is wrong etc.

The society described in this story is very seducing; it seems better than you could imagine: perfect. That`s fucked up part, nothing is perfect, obviously, your reading this blog... such is the case....... Sorry, I`m regressing into...... I`ll be drinking again soon, bear with me.... This society maintains this perfect process by using pills which suppress emotions, mainly romantic love and sexuality. I believe you will love this book and you will crown me your Leader after reading it. The Giver, if you read any of these books i recommend, this one will leave a true impression on your mind and your head AND your brain. I could go on and on but seriously get it. really, aren`t there too many idiots out there already. Let`s lighten the load. I rest for now.......
