I find it curious how these low-income areas support the most expensive nail and hair salons.

My wife does far too much work to keep those kind of nails nice - these gals must never garden, cook or clean.

Your tax dollars at work.

I know. Yet she is underprivileged.

...she pulled a bag of marijuana out of her coat pocket...

Obviously, her stupidity is all the fault of the war on drugs (he said with sarcasm)...

The three children have been placed in the care of an uncle ...
What, not one of the three fathers could be found?

Memphis?!

I bet you it was one of those Swedish women from Germantown!

<./sarcasm>

Hell, I don't have to click the article to find out she has nappy hairz.

She has to get those nails done. Why...you don’t want her looking bad at the polling booth when she pulls the lever for nobama in November...do you? Have some respect.

The editor of the KKK’s humor magazine just resigned.

"It's a crying shame," said Nicole Eubanks, after she heard about the arrest of 23-year-old Erica Rooks. "It doesn't make any sense."

Who the hell is Nicole Eubanks and why is she interviewed by this reporter? She's never identified, so I'm assuming she's some woman in the vicinity of these events. Why waste the print?

Years ago I worked in an emergency department. We would see a Cadillac pull up, two young women get out, one helping the other who was obviously needing help to walk, expensive designer jeans unzipped and hand on lower abdomen, hunched over doing the “PID shuffle”. When she got to the window, she would hand over her Medicaid card. Usually the admitting clerk would have the correct diagnosis before the doctor saw her - pelvic inflammatory disease caused by gonorrhea. Sometimes complicated by pregnancy.

I always assumed these young ladies had other sources of income besides WIC, food stamps, or welfare.

What makes you think the uncle is not the father?

[oh8eleven]

You’re right. Stooopid me and my old fashioned thinking.

Stupidity is color blind.

Those Germantown snoots have their own problems.
