A white woman, about 50 years old, was seated next to a black man on an airplane. Obviously disturbed by this, she called the air hostess. "Madam, what is the matter," the hostess asked. "You obviously do not see it then?" she responded. "You placed me next to a black man. I do not agree to sit next to someone from such a repugnant group. Give me an alternative seat."
"Be calm please," the hostess replied. "Almost all the places on this flight are taken. I will go to see if another place is available." The Hostess went away and then came back a few minutes later.
"Madam, just as I thought, there are no other available seats in the economy class. I spoke to the captain and he informed me that there is also no seat in the business class. All the same, we still have one place in the first class."
Before the woman could say anything, the hostess continued, "It is not usual for our company to permit someone from the economy class to sit in the first class. However, given the circumstances, the captain feels that it would be scandalous to make someone sit next to someone so disgusting."
She turned to the black man and said "Therefore, Sir, if you would like to, please collect your hand luggage, a seat awaits you in first class." At that moment, the other passengers who were shocked by what they had just witnessed stood up and applauded.

I'm skipping my post about yesterday to go straight to the fact that people friggin suck.
I need to not be so nice to people. No one in my Research, Data, & Methods class is willing to get me a copy of their notes for 2 days I missed after our latest test. And Liz keeps forgetting to ask the person she got them from before and our test is in well it's the final so it's in like 3 weeks and i need to do good on it. You know if someone gives you notes in a class you should at least be willing to return the favor once. I helped someone out and if i could remember who that was I'd be messaging them personally and not the entire class. Oh well, my fault for missing class.
if you'd like to see what my day was like yesterday, here's a link to the post about it on myspace.com

This weekend was awesomely cool! We (my cousin and I) saw Rob Thomas and Anna Nalik live...they both rawked!
I knew Rob would cause i've seen him before, but I had no clue who the girl was til she sang "Breathe" which is an awesome song and if you haven't heard it go listen!
Also, went to pick up Stitch (vi's dog) cause her manager at the apartments is a bastard so I'm keeping him now. Poor thing got a flea bath at 11:00 last night haha, but damn them lil buggers were falling off like mad crazy. Poor Suzie, I have to quarentine Stitch in my room til I get them off for good, cause she's seriously allergic, and she keeps trying to get in here :( I feel so bad, I'm going to have to love on her extra once the fleas are gone so she knows I'm not mad at her.
umm..oh and I have a page on myspace.com now so go check it out...

Hey all
Happy Turkey Day
We stayed home, til just now, we are about to leave..*grumbles* i hate this cause we are goin to get over there and they are going to give us a bunch of crap about "where have you been?" like they care. so hopefully we wont' be there late cause i still have 3 assignments to do for my online class(i'm doing them ahead of time so i dont' forget them) and then another one to do for my other class that requires me to actually make a survey...*grumbles again*
oh i was checking my grades tonight, i have 2 C's and a D- in my online class WTF?!!!!
but if i do all the rest of the assignemtns (the ones i'm doing now) and get at least an 80 on the next test and do the optional final and get at least an 80 on that I'll get a B in the class so that rawks hardcore.
The other classes, my grade will depend on the papers, which are still in the process of being graded so we'll see how that goes :)
Oh an di didn't get the job I applied for, but my friend liz made a good point, after i had called 2 times leaving a message for him both times and then went in on Saturday and asked him abou the position and he said he'd call, do I really want to work for someone who doesnt' have the common curtosy to call me and tell me "yeah you got the job" or "sorry we filled the position already"? Not really, that's kinda rude. Even fi you are busy, do it before you open or on lunch or after close or something. I dunno so now i have to try an deither get more hours where I am now, or get another job cause 57 a week isnt' cutting it, especially when I have car insurance, car payment, computer payment, target visa payment, not to mention gas and parking at school. blah! hahah but i'll survive, i've made it this far hehe
anyway happy turkey day all hope it was swell for everyone
