Hey Hector... kiss my ass essay. The race card has been flushed down the toilet. Quit reaching for it as it has been flushed out to sea and devoured by the small fish(es) holmes. I guess I'm able to say this only because I have a spanish last name... anybody else would be called racist.
I'm so sick of the owe is me card, stick it up your ass as it is an even playing field. The boy that cried wolf is even embarassed.

: Here is a novel idea, eliminate remedial
