You Want What?

I love this country. I swear, we've become such a bunch of pansy whiners ever since some idiot poured a cup of coffee in her lap. Take for example a doctor who lost his daughter 12 years ago when his son rushed through a train crossing and didn't make it. Very sad, not a joking matter. But now listen to this. He's asking Pixar to remove a scene from the movie Cars for the DVD release. He thinks that a cartoon racecar narrowly speeding across a railroad grade undoes years of work for railroad safety. Hmmm... Chief, don't you think maybe you're just a little more sensitive about this than the rest of us? Its ok though, I've got a solution and we don't need to delete anything. They'll just make an alternate ending where "Lightning McQueen" doesn't just barely make it. He gets hit by the train at full speed and tiny pieces of car go flying everywhere. Add in a very sad funeral where they bury what pieces they can find and bam, end of movie. Granted that'd make the movie like 30 mins long, but hey, that's the message we're trying to convey, right? While we're at it we should add in scenes without the redneck truck. Or the italian named Guido. Re-write that romance scene where they go racing through windy roads, that's not safe. The tractor tipping scene should go too; make it a friendly came of checkers. Actually now that I think of it, they should just release two versions, one with the movie, and the other a very nice picture of a car for all those parents who need to shelter their kids from the harshness of animated fun.
