Lesson for the day: Don't write on your own face

Ok. I'm a sucker for punishment. I am home.

For those of you that follow my ramblings, you already know what I think about the people that co-reside in my home of Las Vegas. First day back, and already I'm surrounded by the reality of them.

A public service announcement poster I've seen on bus stop shelters in both California, and now here in Nevada has set the current standard. It's your typical public service ad. It's a young black kid, dreaming of a space shuttle launch. Some graphic designer photoshop'd the launch off the top of his head. The caption states the ages old standard "A mind is a terrible thing to waste."

But here in Nevada, one of those wasted minds wrote on the poster. "Niggers in space". Not exactly the peak of witty prose. Sadly, nothing less than I would expect. I cannot help but think that somehow, the author of the waste-mind message had this particular individual in mind.


In the news:

After a series of annual cuts from education to get the state budget to work, Nevada has finally decided being last in most of the standards for states in education, it's time to start taking education seriously, and that proper funding is a big part of that.

Too bad someone didn't think of this, before those currently in Nevada's government were educated here. Maybe Mr "Niggers in Space" will be the next governor.
