The other day I was sitting outside on the back porch smoking a cigarette just taking in the surrounding sounds . It reminded me of a time when I used to sit on a bench at the beach and listen and watch the waves . This time it was bamboo that is growing in the backyard. Yes, its a pain in the ass plant, that that is very hard to get rid of but , it has a unique appeal.
Just sit back and watch how it moves with the breezes .Listen to how the wind gently caresses each leaf and the gently creaking of the bamboo as it dances .
.......and then......
Its all ruined by the messy white shit that falls from the sky in the wrong season!!
There goes the nice sound of the breeze and gentle creaking . Instead you get the sound of globs of snow dropping as it melts and the cracking of bamboo as it snaps from the weight of the snow! so much for relaxing!
For a long time I have heard, " Your the whitest Puerto Rican I have ever met". To be honest it makes me laugh. How do you act a color or, doing things that represent a color ? Yes you can represent a nationality , a culture, or an ethnic group but, within all of these the colors are different. So if we all acted a color then the census would have to have a lot more pages then it does to cover the entire color spectrum and, include shades to determine the severity of the color group you belong to . Where would you put all the orange sunless tanning people?
Staying on topic. Yesterday a, gordito bean of a man from my own ethnic background , said I was a white Puerto Rican . It wasn't because I have a lighter pigment to my skin then he does but , because I like heavy metal and I have tattoos, and I don't speak Spanish. I don't expect people to enjoy what I listen to but, at least understand and not be ignorant to the fact that heavy metal music is not specific to ethnicity, gender, or color. So I did some searching and i think the next to videos should clear things up .
