OWW!!!

I just just burnt my tongue! Oh boy this won't be fun for the next week. And another thing, why does everyone on Hells Kitchen smoke? I thought that the anti-smoking movement has made such big strides in its crusade of taking away ones freedom. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not a big fan of smoking, but the last time I checked it was a free country and we have the freedom to do things such as: smoke, curse, making certain comments or express our beliefs without having corporate America and whack job politicians and celebs hounding us down for being terrible human beings! Ok, now granted smoking is not good for you, cursing make you look illiterate and you will often hurt people with ill intent words. But really, that is not for the government or Brad Pitt to watch over. It is up to the people that are being affected to make change. The people who make 4 to 5 figures, the people who work 5 days a week from 9-5. The Lowercase People. So that is what my shirt means. It's people who help make a difference in the world without having the platform of fame, fortune or power.

So that's my little soap box statement for the day.

Also, now having seen Iron Man three times now, I can safely say that the reason the movie industry is slipping is because of the crappy theaters. I can guarantee you that if at least the concession prices go down, you will see an increase in numbers.

That is all.

As for the whole changing other people...as much as I hate to say it, you're right. We as an American people are so unbelievably arrogant at times. We try to change everything and everyone except ourselves.
It isn't up to us to change everyone. Let's not be like Hilter, changing the stuff we personally don't like because we think that in the end it will be a better world. That never turns out well.
I'd almost say that we should concentrate more on ourselves and not on others, but America's already ahead of me in that area. Can you say, "selfish"? We already are so focused on ourselves when it comes to the good stuff in life, and so focused on others when it comes to the bad stuff. It's always someone else's fault-President Bush, the government...someone who has power and who can't answer back.
Why can't we take some responsibility here?

And now, I too will get off my soapbox.
