Black or white

The recent demaction between the black and white homosapien species in American has risen to an impecable height. Based on different sentimental judgement which characterize both cultures, its just easy to say which is which. They say racism is dead but i think it was just buried in there hearts to be exhumed when the need calls. Here is an abstract that explains it all .A zebra dies goes to heaven. When checking in, he tells St. Peter,"Say, I have always wanted to know if I am white with black stripes or black with white stripes. "St. Peter, "I can't answer that question...but see God walking around over there? Ask him. " Zebra to God, "God, am I white with black stripes or black with white stripes? "God looks at the zebra sagely and states, "You are what you are. "Frustrated, the zebra returns to St. Peter. What did He say," asks S. P. "Oh,," replies the zebra. "He just said, 'You are what you are,' and I still don't know whether I'm black with white stripes or white with black stripes. "Oh, that's easy," says S. P. "You are white with black stripes. "How do you know? " asks the zebra. "Well," says S. P., "if you were black with white stripes he would have said 'you is what you is.'"

New Age American Son...

With the current phenomenal changes going on in lives of today's teens, have you ever retrospected a life of the next future generation. Here is  a very volatile vision that was visualized, hope it doesn't vanish in vain. Somewhere in America, next couple of years... 
Dad: Son, come in here, we need to talk. 
Son: What's up, Dad?
Dad: There's a scratch down the side of the car. Did you do it? 
Son: I don't believe, if I understand the definition of "scratch the car ", that I can say, truthfully, that I did not    scratch the car. 
Dad: Well, it wasn't there yesterday, and you drove the car last night, and no one else has driven it since. How can you explain the scratch? 
Son: Well, as I've said before, I have no recollection of scratching the car. While it is true that I did take the car out last night, I did not scratch it. 
Dad: But your sister, Monica, has told me she saw you back the car against the mailbox at the end of the driveway, heard a loud scraping sound, saw you get out to examine the car, and then drive away. So again I'll ask you, yes or no, did you scratch the car? 
Son: Oh, you mean you think you have evidence to prove I scratched it. Well, you see, I understood you to mean did "I " scratch the car. I stand by my earlier statement, that I did not scratch the car. 
Dad: Are you trying to tell me you didn't drive the car into the mailbox? 
Son: Well, you see sir, I was trying to drive the car into the street. I mishandled the steering of the car, and it resulted in direct contact with the mailbox, though that was clearly not my intent. 
Dad: So you are then saying that you did hit the mailbox? 
Son: No sir, that's not my statement. I'll refer you back to my original statement that I did not scratch the car. Dad: But the car did hit the mailbox, and the car did get scratched as a result of this contact? 
Son: Well, yes, I suppose you could look at it that way. 
Dad: So you lied to me when you said you did not scratch car? 
Son: No. No, that's not correct. Your question was "Did I scratch the car? ". From a strict legal definition, as I understood the meaning of that sentence, I did not scratch the car... the mailbox did... I was merely present when the scratching occurred. So my answer of "No " when you asked "Did I scratch the car " was legally correct, although I did not volunteer information. 
Dad: Where did you learn to talk like a complete idiot? 
Son: From The President of the United States."

The 5 questions most feared by men are:

The 5 questions most feared by men are:

1. What are you thinking about?

2. Do you love me?

3. Do I look fat?

4. Do you think she is prettier than me?

5. What would you do if I died?

 What makes these questions so difficult is that every one is guaranteed to explode into a major argument if the man answers incorrectly(i. e., tells the truth). As a public service, each question is analyzed below, along with possible Responses.

Question # 1: What are you thinking about? The proper answer to this, of course, is: "I'm sorry if I've been pensive, dear. I was just reflecting on what a warm, wonderful, thoughtful, caring, intelligent woman you are, and how lucky I am to have met you. " This response obviously bears no resemblance to the true answer,which most likely is one of the following: a... Baseball. b... Football. c... How fat you are. d... How much prettier she is than you. e... How I would spend the insurance money if you died. Perhaps the best response to this question was offered by Al Bundy, who once told Peg, "If I wanted you to know what I was thinking, I would be talking to you! Question # 2: Do you love me? The proper response is: "YES! " or, if you feel a more detailed answer is in order, "Yes, dear. " Inappropriate responses include: a... Oh Yeah, crap loads. b... Would it make you feel better if I said yes? c... That depends on what you mean by love. d... Does it matter? e... Who, me? 

Question # 3: Do I look fat? The correct answer is an emphatic: "Of course not! " Among the incorrect answers are: a... Compared to what? b... I wouldn't call you fat, but you're not exactly thin. c... A little extra weight looks good on you. d... I've seen fatter. e... Could you repeat the question? I was just thinking about how I would spend the insurance money if you died.

Question # 4: Do you think she's prettier than me? Once again, the proper response is an emphatic: "Of course not! " Incorrect responses include:a... Yes, but you have a better personality. b... Not prettier, but definitely thinner. c... Not as pretty as you when you were her age. d... Define pretty. e... Could you repeat the question? I was just thinking about how I would spend the insurance money if you died.

Question # 5: What would you do if I died? A definite no-win question.(The real answer, of course, is "Buy a Corvette and a Boat "). WARNING: No matter how you answer this, be prepared for at least an hour of follow-up questions, usually along the these lines:WOMAN: Would you get married again? MAN: Definitely not! WOMAN: Why not-don't you like being married? MAN: Of course I do. WOMAN: Then why wouldn't you remarry? MAN: Okay, I'd get married again. WOMAN: You would? (with a hurtful look on her face) WOMAN: Would you sleep with her in our bed? MAN: Where else would we sleep? WOMAN: Would you put away my pictures, and replace them with pictures of her? MAN: That would seem like the proper thing to do. WOMAN: And would you let her use my golf clubs? MAN: She can't use them; she's left-handed WOMAN: - - - silence - - - MAN: Oh ( expletive deleted)."
