“The first reaction was, ‘Oh my God, they’ve got a dog,’” recalled Brandon Wright, a B96 (96.3 FM) DJ who was hired to host the Mega Skate Jam at the Cheap Skate-Coon Rapids.

I’ll bet you feel pretty plenty stupid now don’t you?  Wait I’ll bet that is your natural state.

And I'm not joking either. Merely saying that the election of an African-American should put to bed the canard that people in badges are necessarily out to get the black man, thus justifying all manner of scurrilous behavior on behalf of the would be victim.

It was her favorite thing to do. Of course I selfishly went for the retro vibe and people watching, both of which were cosmically confusing and entertaining. @Kurtis I used to take me little sister (Big Brother/Little Sisters) there all the time.

Oh, btw, we're now officially in pre-post-post-racial America. As you know, since 11/4 racism ceased to exist and in post-post-racial America, racism will make a come back. In pre-post-post-racial America, things are just kinda racial. Father Bixby apparently grew up in Mississippi and has bad associations with police dogs because of the shit that happened there. And it is kinda racial - were there police dogs when white people lost their damn minds at the U of M riots? Please tell me the comment re: Obama ending scapegoating was a joke.
