    Its harmless, and some here might find it funny. Should be completely safe for work.

    This ran four years ago. It's still valid:

    Dear Red States:

    We've decided we're leaving. We intend to form our own country,
    and we're taking the other Blue States with us. In case you aren't
    aware, that includes California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington,
    Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois and all the Northeast. It may
    even include Florida and Ohio, they are seriously considering it.
    We've given them until Nov. 4th to decide. We believe this split will
    be beneficial to the nation, and especially to the people of the new
    country. Since we're dropping the middle states we're calling it
    United America, or simply the U.A.

    To sum up briefly: You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave
    states. We get stem cell research and the best beaches. We get the
    Statue of Liberty. You get Dollywood. You can take Ted Nugent. We're
    keeping Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel. You get WorldCom. We get
    Intel and Microsoft. You get Ole' Miss. We get Harvard and 85 percent
    of America's venture capital and entrepreneurs. You get Alabama. We
    get two-thirds of the tax revenue, you get to make the red states pay
    their fair share.

    Since our aggregate divorce rate is 22 percent lower than the
    Christian Coalition's, we get a bunch of happy families. You get a
    bunch of single moms, and the highest concentration of pregnant unwed
    teenagers. Please be aware that the U.A. will be pro-choice and
    anti-war, and we're going to want all our citizens back from Iraq at
    once. If you need people to fight, ask your evangelicals. They have
    kids they're apparently willing to send to their deaths for no
    purpose, and they don't care if you don't show pictures of their
    children's caskets coming home. We do wish you success in Iraq, and
    hope that the WMDs turn up, really we do, but we're not willing to
    spend our resources in Bush's Quagmire. We'd rather spend it on taking
    care of sick people, and educating our children.

    With the Blue States in hand, we will have firm control of 80
    percent of the country's fresh water, more than 90 percent of the
    pineapple and lettuce, 92 percent of the nation's fresh fruit, 95
    percent of America's quality wines, 90 percent of all cheese, 90
    percent of the high tech industry, most of the U.S. low-sulfur coal,
    all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and Seven
    Sister schools plus Stanford, Cal Tech and MIT. With the Red States,
    on the other hand, you will have to cope with 88 percent of all obese
    Americans (and their projected health care costs), 92 percent of all
    U.S. mosquitoes, nearly 100 percent of the tornadoes, 90 percent of
    the hurricanes, 99 percent of all Southern Baptists, virtually 100
    percent of all televangelists, Rush Limbaugh, Bob Jones University,
    Clemson and the University of Georgia. We get Hollywood and Yosemite,
    thank you.

    Additionally, 38 percent of those in the Red states believe
    Jonah was actually swallowed by a whale, 62 percent believe life is
    sacred unless we're discussing the war, the death penalty or gun laws,
    44 percent say that evolution is only a theory, 53 percent that Saddam
    was involved in 9/11 and 61 percent of you crazy Reddies believe you
    are people with higher morals then we Bluies.

    Finally, we're taking the good pot, too. You can have that dirt
    weed they grow in Mexico.

    Peace out,


    Blue States

    And my reply to that garbage would be...

    Dear Blue States...

    You can have California,New York and Massachussetts with their high taxes,big government waste and huge deficits that put a drain on our resources. This will free up money for building that fence along the border that you're so opposed to. Any illegals currently found in the Red States will be sent to you, since you have no problem with rewarding deviant behavior. We'll enjoy the clear emergency rooms while you deal with further drains on your hospital staff.

    Have fun trying to feed your population since most agriculture is ACTUALLY grown in red states. And since you're so against trade, I guess some of those ambulance chasers of yours will have to learn a new profession. Though I highly doubt their ready for real work. Or maybe your community organizers can use their special skills in teaching them to how to use tools with sharp objects.

    We'll also enjoy increased energy without you blue staters sucking all of it up with your private jets and tall mansions. And since you Global Warming hypocrites are no longer using the EPA to stop oil drilling and nuclear power, we'll be self sufficient while you folks are begging Canada to send you more.

    We'll take the guns and you can keep your peace symbol, because a gun is much more effective in stopping an attacker than a piece sign. Thanks for letting us have the states with the lowest crime rates while taking the states with most criminalized cities. You have essentially taken most of the criminals off our hands. Maybe we really can start using our guns for sporting purposes, instead of having to defend ourselves from criminals in the inner cities.

    Our teachers will be paid based on merit and our schools will have higher standards, which you blue staters always oppose. Again, thanks for taking D.C and their low test scores off our hands. Maybe with you guys throwing even more money at the problem, you can finally start proving your more money=better education theory. In the meantime, we'll keep our charter schools along with the higher standards that actually work.

    Thanks again for removing your states along with all the failed government policies from our mist. You can go ahead and create that copy of France that you've always wanted and we'll continue with creating the government that the founding fathers envisioned.

    With their high taxes, plus their limp-wristed stance on illegal immigration , I give it two decades till the red states beat the blue states in just about every conceivable category except number of unwashed hippies and violent gun crime.

    Last time he put in an appearance, Tamar was alive, and he turned the board against himself in a blaze of glory by mocking her health problems.
    One would think he might've come back to piss on her grave.
    It's not in him to resist that temptation, so I'm thinking dead maybe.
    Or the Burmuda Triangle that ate Jeriko took him.

    Pretty sure the board turned against him when he told the board of his childhood trauma.

    No, everyone actually circled up to help him.
    Including Tamar.
    Which was why it was stunning he turned on her.
    My amateur diagnosis is he didn't think he deserved help, and went into self-destruct mode.
