Sometimes, you just need to get the hell out of Dodge. I did just that, heading to San Diego with friends to visit friends for a Big Chill weekend, and returned Sunday afternoon on the train. It’s nice to clear the head, occasionally.
Once again, I forgot to pack my cell phone recharger for the trip (I think this was subconsciously intentional), so I made it a point of not using the phone all weekend, which is fine by me. I hate talking on the damn thing. It puts a dent in the side of my face, heats up my ear and is growing a tumor in my brain the size of a grapefruit, I’m sure.
Checking email upon my return, I noticed my brother had sent me this image and caption:
The United States announced, today, that it is changing the national emblem to better reflect our government’s political stance, both home and abroad. So, instead of the great American eagle, the U.S. Truth in Advertising Department unveils our nation’s new emblem . . .
America - We've got you covered!
The Rings of Condomnation – A condom stands up to inflation, halts production, destroys the next generation, protects a bunch of pricks and gives you a sense of security while you’re being screwed.
And you didn’t think our government had a sense of humor.
Speaking of a sense of humor, I’ve yet to read in history where any great wit started a war. You never hear of clowns up in arms. Fools, yes, but clowns?
Do we need another study showing the benefits of chocolate? Of course, kissing someone with chocolate on their tongue will make your head explode.
I’ve discovered that it’s easier to eat your sandwich if you remove the deli paper separators between the cheese slices, first.
Are you noticing how every single member of the Neo-Con artists behind the Bush Cabal are self-destructing? Here’s a Wolfowitz in sheep’s clothing who still doesn’t get it. He’s only sorry that people are not letting him off the hook.
Though many tout the immense reach and interconnectivity of the world-wide-web, it will be all for naught, if the global warming and fossil fuel crises quickly send us back to the Dark Ages. Then, you’ll find that handwritten pamphlets and books will become as valuable as gold, again, for communicating with what’s left of mankind, unless we make clean, sustainable energy priority one, NOW.
Using the Pullout Method when you’re fucking a country is only one way of attempting not to sow seeds of ill will, but in the case of rape the perpetrator doesn’t care if he leaves behind residue from his thoughtless and selfish act of violence? What’s a little jism when the rest of the panties are bloody?
The Powers That Be never intended to pull out. Their intention from day one was to create a new empire in the Middle East where they could control the flow of oil and use the long-reaching arms of military firepower to exert foreign policy across the region. Too bad the little people, amidst all the bloody chaos and confusion, don’t agree with this scenario.
When are we going to take the billions poured into the bottomless pit called the Middle East and apply it to our own internal problems?
Thirty-one are confirmed dead at Virginia Tech shooting rampage, today, and I wonder why all schools do not have armed guards and metal detectors, just like airports? When will parents and leaders demand better security for their own, prior to sending the same children off to fight for oil halfway ’round the world?
This world is unraveling, quickly. If you do not see the signs, then you are blind or a fool. If you do not take action, today, then you may not have the luxury of disagreeing with me, tomorrow. Wake up, people.
