122308 No Honey Roasted Peanuts?

Aaron and I headed to the LAX to catch our 8:15PM departure, which then got delayed to about 9:45 so there was a lot of music to be heard through the majesty of Apple products.  

Aaron and I had some great laughs as always. We took up a row (which consists of 3 seats) but we knew the flight was full/sold out, so we left the middle seat empty. To have a stranger sit in between us as we talked over them (literally) and played our DS's would probably lead them to feel as if they were the most privileged individual to sit next to "awesome" and "amazing".  So we "silently judged" and "observed" each person as they passed our row.  We wanted to hold an interview for each person that asked if the seat was taken, but there wasn't much time.  A black woman proposed the question, and Aaron replied "no, go ahead" then I quickly followed my intuition and said "you know what, how about he just move and sit in the middle" and no not because she was black, but because she probably would have shot both of us for talking over her if she were to sit in the middle...well I guess then yes, because she was black and snuck a "gat" onto the flight.  And she looked sluggishly boring as hell.  BTW, my ratchet that I carry with me for when I bike, was considered a weapon, so LAX took it from me.  Yes, I was planning to tighten the nuts on the pilots and have my way with them; GIVE ME MY RATCHET BACK! I NEED IT FOR MY WHEELS!

Also, I saw a different black woman today on the flight who looked like a sassy gal, with a shirt that read, in post-modern techno font, "OBAMA IS THE NEW BLACK".  Now, what is that suppose to mean? You're disregarding the term "African American". and just because you're a black woman, you're allowed to see color and I'm not? Are you suggesting that FINALLY "your people" have some sort of integrity and intellect because our president is an African American? First of all lady, your shirt is too hip for office, and second, you, wearing that shirt makes your race as a whole look ridiculous because you're suggesting that before Obama, there wasn't any room for intelligent African Americans. There's this one guy, named Martin Luther King, Jr.  who has a HOLIDAY that lasts an entire month, who changed the course of history and who set the bar for so many black people; ever heard of him? Probably not because your BET channel is on way too loud and you have a subwoofer connected to your 17 inch TV.  Anyway, MLK set the bar, but the latter African Americans took that bar, molded it, welded it into a gun and shot their own kind; some of them took the bar as it is and brought it to the Rodney King riot/beating. People, you need to watch the BOONDOCKS episode called "The Return of The King" and learn a thing or two. Youtube it or Hulu it or something. I am in no way a racist nor prejudice in anyway, just only against black people wearing shirts that read "OBAMA IS THE NEW BLACK" because he's more than that, he's the new PRESIDENT.

Anyway.  We played our DS and jammed and swayed to our music as we were handed complimentary peanuts.  And it wasn't until I popped a few in my mouth (that's what she said:) and I realized how plain they were. Of course I ate them, it's protein for a veggie like me, but It made me miss honey roasted SO much.

I got home. Washed my clothes around midnight and did some thinking. Thinking is fun. Which gives me an idea...maybe for a music video, or a short film. OH BRAIN you're so good to me...sometimes.
