Diversity

Diversity is okay in small amounts. Cultures should keep to their place of origin, and not be forced onto other people when an immigrant comes to town.
If I want to put up easter decorations, I will, and none of this politically correct "celebrate diversity" bullshit is gonna stop me.

Cliffs of Dover

Cliffs of Dover is a song by instrumental Rock artist Eric Johnson (Johnson does sing in some of his other songs but Cliffs of Dover is instrumental.

Cliffs of Dover was first released on Johnson's "Ah Via Musicom" in 1990 and won a Grammy for Johnson for Best Instrumental Rock Performance in 1991.

Several versions of the song exist however since Johnson almost never plays the song the same way twice, commonly the intro or outro will have distinct variations in it which distinguish the version from others.

The song is also noted as one of the last songs played on the Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock video game. The version on the game is a cover though and was not performed by Johnson himself. "Cliffs of Dover" has done for Eric Johnson what "Through the Fire and Flames" has done for DragonForce.
We went to the Steve Miller show and I didn't know the opening act but Dan went wild when this song he says is called Cliffs of Dover came on.

Dover, MA

Dover MA is an extremely small town with a population of about 6000. It is prominently white; the percentage of white people in Dover is over 95%. Dover is one of the most expensive places to live in MA, if not in the country. The average price of houses sold in 2007 is over 1.1 million. Although many people say that this is a nice, small town with liberal, accepting people; this couldn't be any further from the truth. Dover is filled with an overwhelming number of Republican preps who have more money than they know what to do with. Dover-Sherborn Regional High School is also filled with many Republican preps. Not that all people whom are preppy and Republican are bad, but at Dover-Sherborn this is the case 9 times out of 10. There is a certain image to fit, and if you don't fit it you're life is going to be filled with torment at DS. Although there is not much physical violence, the amount of talking behind others backs is immense. Many say that people at DS buy a lot of drugs when really they wouldn't know good headies from okay middies if they saw them. The drug culture at DS is a joke. Kids pay for over-priced, low quality drugs and think that they're all that. Many of them are afraid to go into the city and afraid of blacks, because of what little exposure they've had to life outside of DS. The schools may be very good academically, but that's what private (liberal) schools are for. Not to mention Dover is in the middle of NO WHERE.
Non Dover Resident, "Hey, where do you live?"
Dover Resident, "Dover, MA
Non Dover Resident, "Man, I'm sorry. You can stay here whenever you'd like"

Non Dover Resident, "So, where are you from?"
Dover Resident, "Dover"
Non Dover Resident, "Where?"
Dover Resident, "East Bum Fxck"

Kid from other High School, "So how are the sports at Dover-Sherborn?"
Dover-Sherborn Kid, "They suck, but people are really good at making others feel unwelcome and excluded"
Kid from other High School, "Damn. Bet you can't wait to graduate."

diversity

(Cultural) Originally, diversity of ideas and viewpoints were recognized as important to many different endeavors such as learning and decision-making - the idea being that the over time the best ideas and/or viewpoints would win out in fair competition. Unfortunately, once this concept was generally embraced as a good thing, it was subsequently perverted and has become a euphemism for quota preferences given to politically favored minority groups in such areas as hiring, promotion, granting of federal contracts and admission into educational systems.
Genuine diversity would imply that someone from Greenland or New Zealand would be a welcome addition to increase the diversity of a university culture. Instead, administrators believe their university somehow becomes more diverse by adding one more black from down the road, increasing black % enrollment from 7.23% to 7.24%. Odd how administrators never seem to notice that blacks don't really contribute to diversity anyway since blacks usually restrict their company to that of other blacks in the student union, classroom, fraternity, university clubs, etc.
