Before you go any further, read this...

Dictionary.com defines a redneck as:

1. an uneducated white farm laborer, esp. from the South.

2. a bigot or reactionary, esp. from the rural working class.

It goes on to say that redneck is A slang term, usually for a rural white southerner who is politically conservative, racist, and a religious fundamentalist. This term is generally considered offensive. It originated in reference to agricultural workers, alluding to how the back of a person's neck will be burned by the sun if he works long hours in the fields.

While I can't say all that fits me to a tee, a lot of it is pretty damn close.

You see, I lost both my parents before I turned 12 years old. I bounced around in a couple of foster homes before moving in with my uncle when I tuned 15. By age 17, I was on my own. I dropped out of school half way through 11th grade so I could go to work full time. Three months after my 18th birthday, I got behind the wheel of a cab for the first time.

I've learned more about life in 28 years in a hack than any philosopher ever could know. I've had multi-million dollar businessmen, celebrities and pro athletes as well as crack whores, drug dealers and murderers in my cab. I refuse to be an airport jockey or one of those guys that only stages at the hotels, so unfortunately, I have to deal with more of the bottom feeders of life than I do the upper crust.

It is the dealings that I've had the bad apples that has made me what I am today...

The Redneck Cabbie.

You see, to escape the madness of the city streets, my mind drifts off (not while I'm driving) to a quiet country town. A place where everyone knows everyone, and a man's handshake is as binding a contract as a person needs. A place where friends gather to down a couple of cold ones and listen to music that you can actually understand the words.

A place where young men don't walk around with their pants falling down over their ass, and young ladies don't have to dress like sluts to draw a man's attention.

I think you get the picture. I know, boring as whale shit to most city folks. I'd be living in a town just like that if it weren't for the fact that there's just not much demand for my line of work in most small towns.

This blog will reflect these feelings. If I seem a little bitter now and then, its just because that wonderful little town is nowhere in my near future, and because the life expectancy of someone in my line of work doesn't extend much past retirement age, all I can do is dream about it.

If Micheal Vick does any time...

... then this sick fuck should rot in jail.

According to the Corpus Christi Caller Times:

A 26-year-old Victoria man arrested last week in Robstown on misdemeanor charges of public lewdness and disorderly conduct could face more serious charges if authorities determine a dog was sexually assaulted.

District Attorney Carlos Valdez, who received the case on Wednesday, said he is awaiting DNA results taken from the female dog to show whether Eduardo Ramos III had any sexual contact with the animal and is researching possible charges.

Full Story

This just makes me want to hurl. I can't type fast enough to express my feelings here.

If this guy is convicted, he needs to go away for a long, long time. This may be at least as sick as having sex with a minor. (Back off... I'm not trying to lessen that offense)

Any person that would have sex with any animal should just be locked up for life, because they are are that much of a serious threat to society.

I've seen the pictures on line. I know this shouldn't be so shocking. I can't help it.

So lets play the what if game...

What if this fucker is lucky enough to find any human to have sex with. Can you imagine the potential threat of disease this "man" is passing on to a potential partner.

I need to stop before I spend a sleepless night over this shit.
