The people in this town.... sigh....

Oh, well, another ho hum Saturday night. Actually it was not really bad. I finally decided to go out, since I've not been feeling so great lately and often go to bed early... something I never did before.

I've starting to fear I may have contracted Lyme Disease... I have almost ALL the symptoms, the bulls-eye rash, fatigue, diahrrea, joints aches and so on.
Looking online, I saw there was some movement claiming that NO ONE in NC can catch Lyme Disease and they have run out of state many of the doctors that were effectively treating folks for that dreaded disease.

I actually went into the Health Dept and told them there's a woman in town, who lives near the kids ballpark who's deliberately not only had been feeding the deer, but STILL months later, she's STILL got this big salt block out to attract deer.
Do you think the Health Dept. gave a damn though? Nope! They told me to contact the same damn govt agency who told me back in December it was perfectly LEGAL to feed wild animals, ANY wild animals.
How stupid can you NC people be anyway? You want to have your next door neighbor be able to feed wild bears so you have to constantly run from you car to your door to get inside?
God, you guys are sheer idiots! I hate to say it but it's SO true! What the hell are you thinking NC govt?
I also found a website for the Fox News where LOTS Of people, esp. a couple in Asheville were saying they caught Lyme Disease but couldn't find a doctor who would treat them for it, or even diagnose them!
My god! This is deplorable! This is the most fucked up place to live I've have EVER seen!!! It's like you simply do NOT care if someone lives or dies, but yet, you're MORE than willing to give HEALTH benefits to gay partners of people who don't even work!
Hey! You really think the rest of us do NOT want to stay healthy??? Give me a break!
Hey, two guys getting together sure ain't gonna produce no children, I can tell you what! But YET, you don't want to give decent paying jobs to straight people! I just read an article in the Mt. Express where it says that 31% of the folks in Buncombe county are working but live below the poverty level and cannot meet their basic living expenses!
31%? That's almost 1/3 of the people here, yet we are considered the Paris of the south? Why? are Parisians also living below the poverty level at a rate of 1/3 of its population? I'm doubting it! The French are alot more intelligent than that!
Well... it's just another reason to get the FUCK out of this place!

Anyway... that's one thought but another was how a "friend" of mine always calls me late at nite on the weekend to come hang out with him for a bit. He's ALWAYS going out clubbing, many of the places, just meat markets really, but yet, he's never invited me to go to a ballgame, a movie, out for a snack, couldn't bother answering ANY of my phone calls or message during the week, but yet at 2 am, I'm expected to go hang out with him, even if I've not heard from him for months!
It's kinda creepy in the fact, it's like I'm "just good enough to do stuff with when he's got nothing better to do"! I don't know what the fuck it IS about NC people, but they are SO insensitive, many of them. I will not say ALL of them, cuz I have met some GOOD NC people, but it's few & far between the jerks I meet constantly in the last several years!
I hate it for the nice southerners too, the bad ones sure make a bad name for the nice ones! Well, I wasn't really having a bad time before he called anyways.. I was sort of having fun... They have DJ's at this place and though I was in too much pain to dance it was nice to see all these people dancing around, having fun.. No one was really being obnoxious. One guy kept beckoning me to come dance on the floor with him, but I was too tired and not feel great physically cuz of all the aches & pains, I've afraid I've got now, cuz I think I DO have Lyme Disease!
Well, funny thing there was one guy who kept noticing me, and kept saying hello and shaking my hand. It was not creepy, sort of flattering in a way. He was not really my type but nice when guys pay attention to you in a nice way.
When I went outside to go meet my friend, later in the evening though, the friendly guy had come up to me again to shake my hand and introduce me to his other 2 friends..... he was a nice friendly guy..
I sort of brushed him off, though when I saw my friend and I was thinking, You know.. this is bullshit! This guy NEVER asks me to come to his place, though he's been to mine several times... never really wants ANYTHING to do with me, other than hang out when it suits HIM!
Well, I did notice he was pretty friendly to some girl who asked for a cigarette when I went to use the bathroom. We ONLY hung out for an hour but that place was open ALL NIGHT and I SHOULD of gone back in there after my friend split!
I felt SO weird, driving out of there, all by myself, when the WHOLE parking lot was FULL of cars. Who knows, I might have made some good friends or better yet, met a nice guy. That guy though he's pleasant to hang out with, is REALLY not a good friend though!
It's like we are JUST aquaintances and that's it!
That's just so PAR for the COURSE though with NC people! They'll use you when it suits then, but other than that, they want NOTHING to do with ya, will talk about you behind your back, non-stop and wouldn't even speak up for ya, if you needed them to! I'm just SO fed up with these people, I'm actually starting to feel I'm SO sick of listening to southern accents and all their stupid thought processes!
They don't think anything like I do... they are so prejudiced against ANYONE who's NOT EXACTLY like them! Who didn't grow up in the same community or the same area or same STATE!
That's just SO ridiculous to my way of thinking. We grew up with people from all OVER the world when I was a kid. We had a neighbor from Scotland on our street, a friend from Italy, my friend's grandma was directly from Ireland, etc etc. etc.... so I cannot CONCEIVE just WHY southerners make it SUCH a point to discriminate against someone based on WHERE they are born! Especially when it's from a different state! I swear, the southerners, in general, have to be the MOST narrow-minded people I've EVER met! Ever!
That's just plain ignorance to me! Reminds of the people want to feed deer in our area! The woman supposedly works for a DOCTOR'S office, yet she wants to risk others lives feeding wild deer & bucks to collect their antlers, when she OUGHT TO KNOW there's NO Lyme Disease shots available! She ought to know there's a good chance someone could be killed having a deer run into their car! Supposedly she's intelligent, but she just doesn't care.
One thing I have noticed is... she ALWAYS leaves both the salt block and the food for the deer OUTSIDE her fence, never inside! Well, if you are SO in love with deer, why don't you want them coming into your yard ma'am? Inside YOUR fence? I'm guessing you are doing it for your safety, but to hell with anyone else's safety!
I saw a poor mom in Asheville had a young son who's gotten Lyme Disease and I wonder if he's ever hung out in the park near where this woman lures deer onto her property so she can collect antlers?
It's strange and sad, but they just shot a bear to death who had bitten some guy on the foot (a puncture wound they said) after he bit someone when tourists had been feeding him. Well, you see, it's DANGEROUS to feed wild animals, what would make you think anything else?????
But YET... people KNOW that deer hitting someone's car could well KILL them and they certainly do not want to shoot deer! Why? You WANT to be killed by deer hitting your car??
But YET, our damn State Wildlife Commission give EVERYONE in the state the RIGHT to feed wild animals! Well, I sort of pity the poor bear! I do... I'm scared of bears running around my yard.. I've dealt with that before, but they will NOT come over if you do NOT leave food out for them!
Now a poor bear is DEAD! So how much good did you do that bear? He got a few free meals but so what? He's not even alive to walk about now! That's a pity and a travesty! But you KEEP in insisting it's OK & it's LEGAL to feed wildlife and you're going to have even MORE poor wild animals dead!
I'm surprised NO deer have been killed yet trying to cross the road to get to this woman's salt block! It's amazing, considering how much traffic exists on that road! Wow.... you know.. I just don't get the whole mentality of many people, I simply don't!
Nor, do I think, I really want to....
Funny, thing is.. I went to another town a couple of weeks back and was so SURPRISED at how POLITE everyone was there! It was like being back in the old days where people just showed general courtesy to others.

Asheville has become a hateful town. I went shopping yesterday and was trying to walk across the PEDESTRIAN walkway near the Walmart and these two girls almost RAN ME OVER WITH THEIR car. I looked at the license plate as they zoomed off, and it say, FD--something simple too, like 1341 FD, but FD stands for fire dept! That somehow does NOT surprise me, as we had a fireman in town that shot at some guy bicycling with his toddler on the back of the bike!

The fireman got FOUR SHORT MONTHS in jail! 4 months for trying to kill someone???? Yeah.. Asheville is progressive alright.. VERY progressive if you're a crook, or you're a weirdo! Then they put you up on pedestal!
Get your act together Asheville! Your govt makes such stupid errors in judgement it sometimes makes me cringe!! There's NOTHING progressive about you! It's like living in cave man days!
