Anyhoo...
Whaddaya gonna do when you have an hour left in work, you're tired, and you can barely keep your eyes open? WRITE IN YOUR BLOG! You guys love it when I'm loopy. I know because I get emails telling me just that. "Drink more coffee," they say, "You're (censored) hilarious," they read, "I love you and want you to be the mother of my kids so leave Boston and come away with me to a secluded area where there will be mango trees all over and not a stupid person in sight..."
Wait, none of them actually say that last thing. Did I mention I was delirious too? I'm tired and I think I'm coming down with something nasty. If not...then it's allergy season! I was looking at this list of the 100 worse cities to live if you have allergies. I am proud to announce that Boston is 99. So it could be worse, I could be living in the #1 worst spot. Don't ask me what the number 1 spot was. I'm happy that I can remember my name and my way home. 50 more minutes...
This morning I was outraged...But thanks to my lack of energy, I am merely annoyed...A little bit...Okay not really annoyed, I'm just irritated. lol
Most of you cats aren't from Boston but those who are noticing the spike in violence in our fair city. The government is putting more money into hiring more police officers and to help programs produce more jobs for teenagers. Ready? Okay...
A few years back, Mass residents were faced with a choice:
1. Lower taxes
2. Keep them the same
Guess what the (censored) picked?! Dumb (censored) majority. Don't they read? Don't they learn? For the love of all that is squishy...
The more impoverished a place is, the more crime you will have.
The more bored teens are, the more crime you will have.
Now our government is dropping in to save the day. Yay? Now they are starting to have a problem with this because folks are worried about their safety while using public transportation. So that's why there is a lot of attention here...
The upper class folks are worried about geting hurt and the government is worried about losing their support.
Folks want to dismiss those who voted for the tax cut by saying that they did it because they are stupid. I'm here to tell you, they did it because they were selfish. They were looking out for themselves and their pockets. "Why should I care about what happens in the inner-city, it isn't affecting my neighborhood or my kids!" HA...Yes it is. Kids in the suburbs get bored too. Kids in the suburbs do drugs too. The only difference is, kids in the suburbs have the MONEY to get whatever it is that they want!
I actually saved this bad boy as a draft two days ago...
In the past two days, the front page of the Metro (Boston newspaper) has caused me to stop reading it. I would walk into work and hand it over to my colleague who loves to do the crossword puzzles. Today I found that the State Senate rejected the Governor's petition for more money in order to hire more police officers. Boston is now more dangerous than the city of New York. Why? I believe it's because New York has more police officers while the ones in Boston are being stretched thin.
Either we get more money into our state once again, or things are going to become worse and instead of pointing their fingers at the government, folks in Boston, who voted for the lowering of taxes, should point at themselves.
Let me end this with a question for those people:
When you voted to keep more money in your pocket...Did you think about who you were hurting in the process???
I didn't think so. I don't wish harm on anyone, but if things like this keep up, our children will be the ultimate victims and that breaks my heart.
Until next time Faithful Five...As well as others...
and Hair Grease.
