Blonde, Blue-eyed, I guess, since he's referring to people like Paris Hilton.

As for her looks, she looks good. At least she hasn't got silicone implants and/or other cosmetic surgery. For that, I respect her.

Is it really that bad in the States? I think this whole new fad of "anti-US, love Asia/Europe" has gotten a bit out of hand. Unless, of course, it really is that bad down there.

I hate her not because she's a celebrity, but that she didn't deserve to be one. She had sex with someone and recorded it. So what? Millions of people do that all the time. Why is she so important? Because she's the heiress of the Hilton Hotel franchise. Anyone else's sex-tape (people of the not-so-famous sort, mind you) wouldn't get this much exposure. She was born into celebrity status. She did not earn it, the same as her money.

Aside from that, she cannot act. She is an untalented snob and all she does is look pretty while appearing glassy-eyed and dazed. Oh, yeah. That's a hot look.

Oh, and about it being terrible over here in America. It's not. Things get tough, but if you've got the scrotum to deal with things instead of saying, "I quit" and leave, then it's worth the land you're living on. Spitfire, I suggest you at least leave California first and experience this country a little more. Cali is more or less full of anal-retentive, over-protective, and overbearing people who make life a hassle. Go visit the woods somewhere. Take a trip to New York or Chicago or maybe even Utah. Anywhere other than Europe first. There's more to America than what the big picture tells everyone, and that goes for our neighbors overseas.

Well, let's see...

Robin Williams attended Juliard, along with Christopher Reeve, and took acting classes. Then he went out and busted his ass in stand-up comedy routines until his agent signed him up for Mork and Mindy. From there, it just went uphill for him.

John Elway, Joe Montana, Joe Namath, Randall Cunningham, Lawrence Taylor, etcetera, played football in high school and college and eventually made it to the NFL where their athletic capabilities were televised for all the world to see. From there was the opportunities to endorse various products. Their success in life has given many children a goal in life and has positioned them into role models.

Jim Carrey fought it out in lesser-known stand-up comedy clubs until working hard enough to get some television spots and eventually break into movies.

Simply put, you earn something by working to get it. She did not.

And just because your parents are famous doesn't count. It doesn't mean that you can be famous, too. That's ridiculous.

Just like with members of royal families. Nobody would give a s...omething about Prince Harry's behaviour if he wasn't famous since his birthday.

It is a fad...and almost a pathic one. If you live in the US your either "YAY USA RULES WE CAN KICK ANYONES ASS IN ANY WAR BECAUSE OUR COUNTRY IS THE STRONGEST" Or "I hate the USA duh yeah Bush is stupid" Yet the people who say that actually do love the US they just say that because their morons like everyone else here. I have always wanted to live else where even as a little kid. I wouldn't want to live in Japan, to crowded that's what I hate here. I also hate how they let thousands of people illegally enter our country and let them stay. And then they deport them 20 years later when they own a house, have a family, and are actually doing good for us. Yeah that's real smart, let them get in and stay here until their useful then kick them out. They also let illegals get drives liscenses! Oh that's freaking brilliant. HEY EVERYONE COME TO THE USA ILLEGALLY AND YOU WILL GET REWARDS! I go to Burger King and the guy at the window puts mustard on my Hamburger because he only speaks Spanish. It's bullcrap, you think the stuff you see on TV with the USA on comdey shows are just a joke? It's not its all real and it saddens me. I have to live like this day in and day out. I don't want my children to have to endure this kinda crap. I'll move to Canada is I have to

So basically you say: "Either don't let foreigners enter the US, be it illegal or not, or mistreat them until they leave"? That's pretty sick if you ask me...

No they can enter if they want I don't care as long as they do it legally. And they don't 90% of the time and it pisses me off. I don't know where you got that I wanted them to be mistreated I never said that.

Have you ever thought about the fact, that they are not doing it with the intention "Man, I'm going to do this sooo illegally" but more with a sort of "Man, I gotta get outta here, and it gets worse downsouth, so I'll try to get to the US, because of the american dream in all these movies"? It's not like they have much of a choice. If it is either starve to death or enter a country illegally... I know what I would do.

Also, you could ask, why they have to enter illegally (I seem to overuse that word). Well, it's because the good US won't let them in in the first place as a result of xenophobia and not caring. But Switzerland is way worse when it comes to that.

And for our conversation this morning about Calcus: What the heck is that? I mean, I probably know what it is, but I simply don't get the word.

I understand they need to escape that's great but after they get here they should have to go through a process that gets them ready to live in the US. Their going to just sneak back in anyways our government might as well help them. They know these are the people that do all of the harsh labor for almost no money. It sickens me to see that being done to people. I don't want to have to live around that. I live in Cali so it is the worst here, everyone wants to come to Cali like the god damn gold rush is still going on.
As for Calcus it's a form of Math. It's pretty hard....for people like me anyways o_O

They're not asking the government for help, because they are afraid. I wouldn't go up to an official and say "Hey, I'd like to fill out some entry forms because I just snuck in last night". They're afraid that they are sent back. Also, these escapes are pretty expensive, so a lot of people give away all their savings to get across the border. If they are sent back, then they're screwed. There's no way they could make another attempt. They've got this one chance of a better life. Wouldn't you take it?

I too live in a border area, all those rejects from Germany get here sooner or later because we have these barracks we call "concentration camps V2.0". Foreigners get put there, then they can wait to be sent home.

They probly are scared but once the government finds them they might as well help them instead of just acting like they have no knowlage of them. Using people as slaves bascially. It's a better life then they had, fine but it still isnt right and I dont feel like living around it. I just need to escape myself -_-
