Got my census form today - Vanity

[JustaDumbBlonde]

I answered the first two questions only. First one was how many people live at this address and the second was about any other people “staying” here. I answered “2” and “no”. They are not entitled to any other info as far as I’m concerned.

Use a red or green ink pen... If you have look every where you could and are unable to find a black or blue ink pen! (Wink-wink..)

Dark humor. We need an unsigned type for the census. Perhaps a simple #FU would work.

[I still care]

No, but I am descended from a whole bunch of Vikings with cool names like Halvdan the Black, Ivar the Boneless and Sigurd the SnakeEye....

Also a whole bunch of kings a lot here would know, but they don’t have cool names like the Vikings. I do have a famous ancestor called Richard de Lucy, but that’s about it!

"Doesn’t it SICKEN you that all of the adverts and letters state that the census data is to be used to make sure “your community gets its fair shair of government programs”, and not ONE WORD about apportionment for representation in the House?"

I was on a rant about that very thing, in almost the same words, yesterday. The commercials they are running on FoxNews had me hopping mad!

I'm going to tell them the truth. I'm a meat popsicle.

I consider myself a Native American because both sides of my family have been in this country since the 1640’s, over 130 years before the United States of America was formed

Please note in the message from the Director US census Bureau on the back of the page that came with the form “Federal Law protects your privacy (sure it does) and keeps your answers confidential. The answers you give on the census form cannot be obtained by law enforcement or tax collection agencies. Your answers can not be used in court”.... I’m gonna remind them of this when the come get me for my answers on the form.

Residents of colonias will be counted first in census push

In 2000, the Census Bureau studied colonias along the United States-Mexico border, including the Cotton Valley Estates colonia in El Paso. The bureau found cluttered, hard-to-access neighborhoods, people with little or no knowledge of English and concerns over privacy. All of this made it difficult to get an accurate count of the thousands living in these communities.

At least they added the third box to list your sex...........

My wife filled ours out. Number of people, ages race-American.

We kind of lied on ours too. I’ve been living in another state due to Obama, Pelosi, Reid, Levin and Granholm destroying the way of life I had worked toward. But my official residency is Michigan until my family moves so the census has me there.

I’ve been at my new job 4 1/2 months. In two weeks, I’ll be moving to my fourth residence. Everything fits in my car though. My roommate’s getting married but I’m able to rent a place next door. The Lord came through with a great deal.

Are the following statements true?:

• In 1864, Gen. W.T. Sherman used census data to forage Southern states during his “March to the Sea”;

• In 1942, the U.S. government used census data to round up Japanese Americans;

• In 1983, the IRS tried (largely unsuccessfully) to match census data and mailing lists to identify tax cheats;

• In 2003, Homeland Security received census data on U.S. Arab population centers;

• And, in 2006, the Census Bureau discovered it had lost 1,137 laptops since 2001, 246 with some personal data.

“Questions You May Have
Have a question about the census form?”

[sheikdetailfeather]

How many people live in this house? “This is a mobile home and it all depends on whether we can pay the rent that month.”

Were there any additional people staying in this house on April 1, 2010? “Well...they come and go. I do not remember the name of the last guy I shacked up with.”

What is your phone number? “We can barely afford the rent! What phone?”

What is person 1’s sex? “Transvestite”

What is your name? “Why?”

Is person 1 Hispanic Latino or Spanish? “Get Real!!!”

What is person 1’s race? “This is 2010. Come on!!”

So even on Free Republic, the whole world has to look and think like you, eh?

And the truth of it is, I know what my IQ is. It’s not 70 which you claim when you call me a naive idiot. Your ignorance is showing.
