CL's rant in LA
You: Asian, young(ish), cute, petite, left-of-center, cosmopolitan.
Me: The Asian guy you would never dream of giving a second glance.
Hi! I’m so sad that you were offended by my very presence at your favorite boutique coffee shop. Seriously, I was just there to do some work and maybe a bit of reading – I didn’t mean to draw attention to the fact that you too, are also Asian. I was just looking for a quiet place to sit, and the seat by you just happened to be open. It’s not like peed all over you, put my arm around your shoulder, and screamed to all the other patrons in a heavy Chinese accent, “She mine! You all stay away!”
After I sat down and pulled out Said’s Orientalism (no joke), you, in all of your ignorant glory, proceeded to loudly flirt with the nearest non-Asian man with a pulse to dissuade any romantic overtures from me. Lady, I already know you only date white guys; you don’t even have to open your mouth.
Ever since Chad took you out back in high school and made you the envy of all homecoming, you’ve understood the magical power of white boys. Your parents balked until they saw how well Chet treated you and made you so so so happy. You tell yourself you don’t see color lines, and that you’re ending racism by only dating white guys – and you give yourself a little pat on the back every night before dreaming of waking up with beautiful blonde hair. You’ve even thrown in a black guy or two, just to get back at daddy. Asian guys? Like, gag me with a spoon!
Hey, I applaud you. You’re totally progressive. Never mind all that bukakke stuff Jeremy keeps wanting to do (I wonder where he gets these ideas?). No need to worry about Scotty’s browser history pointing to asianteensluts.com. Totally normal! What red-blooded American man doesn’t want to bang a Japanese high school girl?
Honestly, if I were in your stilettos, I’d do the same thing. If white girls were all over me ‘cause of my nice, smooth skin, my mad computer skills and wispy peach fuzz, I’d ride that white stallion to all glory.
But since I’m 6’2”, 200 lbs. with 4% body fat and a PhD, I guess I’ll have to settle for one of our more racist Asian sistahs.

Bonney Lake dog found after missing 6 months in Montana
A 7-year-old golden retriever named Buck, startled by a train whistle last summer and lost for six months in north-central Montana, is back home in Washington state thanks to the efforts of several Chester residents.
By AMY BETH HANSON
The Associated Press
HELENA, Mont. — A 7-year-old golden retriever named Buck, startled by a train whistle last summer and lost for six months in north-central Montana, is back home in Washington state thanks to the efforts of several Chester residents.
"I've never had a miracle happen to me, so I don't really know what to think," said Kim Halter of Bonney Lake.
Halter said she, her husband and two of their sons were on a family trip to Montana in August when they stopped at a rest stop along U.S. Highway 2 in the small town of Chester.
"The dog was normally never on a leash. Big mistake," Halter said Thursday. "But he was always next to my son. He never left his side, so we never really had a problem.
"We were under the trestle when the horn blew. When Buck heard the whistle, he took off like a shot. None of us even saw him."
Halter said Maxine Woods, who lives across the highway, was waving her arms and trying to tell them that their dog ran away.
"He just basically disappeared," Woods said Friday. "He was just going faster than any dog I've seen run."
Woods joined the search for the dog.
"She got in her car and then she started calling people and before you knew it everybody around there was looking for our dog," Halter said. After two days of unsuccessful searching, the Halters, brokenhearted, resumed their travels.
"We went to the library and the librarian in Chester made us posters and wouldn't charge us a dime for them," Halter said. The family put up posters in banks and post offices in the small towns around the area.
"That was about all we could do," she said.
After a few false sightings, the family didn't hear anything for six months.
As fall turned into winter, heavy snow fell in the Chester area and temperatures occasionally fell into the 20-below-zero range.
"Every time we'd hear about the weather we would just cringe," Halter said. "I would just cry even harder, thinking 'Where is my Buck?' And of course I couldn't let my son (17-year-old Jason) know. I never let him see me cry because he kept the faith and kept the hope.
"He would tell me all the time that Buck's coming home," she said of her son, who had had the dog since it was a puppy. "He actually thought he was going to walk home like in (the movie) 'Homeward Bound.' "
It was about 27 degrees below zero early on Jan. 25, the day Jason Wanken spotted a stray dog on his family farm just north of Chester.
"We spotted this dog out here on the farm, just on and off, going through the creek and whatnot," Wanken said. "We just never had a prime opportunity to go over and get him."
Later in the week, Wanken used a snowmobile to bring some food to the dog, which had taken up residence under a collapsed building.
Wanken's mother had remembered the name of the golden retriever that had gone missing last summer and told Wanken to see if the dog would answer to the name Buck.
"The next day, I took the boys out with me and I had a full bag of food with me and I just rattled that bag," he said. "I started to feed it and could actually pet it then."
Wanken and his wife were able to use food to lure the dog into a kennel.
They took the dog to Woods' house.
"I thought it couldn't be this dog, though, it's been too long," Wanken said.
Woods called Halter on Saturday, Jan. 31.
"She e-mailed me three pictures and when I was on the phone with her I received the pictures, and we both started crying and I said that was him," Halter said.
Confirmation that the dog had an underbite sent the Halters on a 750-mile trip. "We drove all night," she said, arriving in Chester Sunday afternoon.
"When we got to the Wankens, he ran right up to us and it was absolutely without a doubt him," Halter said. "It was a miracle. He looked at us, and we looked at him and we were all crying. It was beyond amazing."
No one seems to know where Buck had been between Aug. 13 and Jan. 25.
"From the time he left us until the time Jason Wanken found him, there is no clue where he's been or what he's done," Halter said. "Only he knows. I almost feel like taking him to a pet psychic to see if they could tell me. Only he knows his secret and he's keeping it to himself.
"I tell ya one thing, he hasn't stopped smiling since he got home and neither have we." link

URGENT - STILL NEED A HOME FOR CHOMPS AND KEEDA
KEEDA
CHOMPS
Due to economic struggles the owners have to move this weekend on the 7th and they need to find the dogs a home by Thursday or else they will be forced to take them to the shelter. If you know anyone who would like to adopt one or both of these beautiful kids, please contact Christina at 360-513-8943 or Banfield (see bottom of this message)
Chomps is a Black Lab/Golden Retreiver mix- he is all mostly black with some brindle and is about 75 pounds. He thinks he is a lap dog. He is fixed and inside/outside dog. While we are at work, he is outside. Love kids of all ages! Chomps is about 4 years old. We got him December 2005 as a puppy. Chomps will like the room to run, but he is the lazy one. He likes to lay in the sun/shade, sleep at the foot of your bed. He does love to fetch rocks! Yes, rocks! He finds them all over the yard and will play with them on our deck.
Keeda is a Lab/Aussie Shepard Mix - she is fixed as well. Blue eyes and about 45 -50 pounds. She needs room to run or a dog run. She does well with older kids - Not so much with little kids. She tends to have to know where all her "people" are when she is in the house - this would be the shepard in her! She is tan and white. Keeda is about 6 years old. She was given to us, so I am not positive on her age. Keeda is the one that really needs the room to run. She is a TOTAL watch dog as well! She will let you know if someone is around! However, she does not bite.
