let's all go to the lobby and get ourselves a treat...
like the invariable rising and setting of the sun, my summer break is upon me... please forgive the lack of posts for the next two fun-filled weeks, as i will be transported from this herniated dustbowl to the soft beaches of Santa Cruz/Monterey and deep blue expanse of the Pacific for a highly needed yet marginally earned paid vacation... my thoughts will be with you, puercitos...
so, until my return, whack a penguin... (my personal best is 1239)
enjoy, friends.

ponderous (continued)
as proof, here's the direct contradiction - more evidence of the dishonest nature of the bush gang...

i guess this administration is under the assumption that if you repeat the same lie over and over, it suddenly becomes true.

christianity is stupid
ya know, the really pathetic part of this is that they could probably cure bush's speech impediment for the word "nuclear"...
i wonder if the god that bush believes wants him in power (which would roughly correspond to hitler's belief in "providence") is the same god that anti-abortionists who blow up clinics pray to...

a fool's fable
what?!? the government says they released inaccurate data?? couldn't be... i mean, they wouldn't try to pass on fictitious information to the american public AGAIN, right?
let's look at it this way.
let's say you make a major mistake at your job... something that, if your boss discovers it, will string your little ass up... just inexcusably wrong... and then the hammer drops... yeah, he/she is pissed, and probably rightly so... i mean, they hired you to do a job, right, and they understand that accidents happen and all, but what you did was... well, pretty fucked up... your boss, being the understanding lout he/she is, lets you off the hook but gives you a pretty stiff warning about paying attention to what you're doing... instance forgotten.
now do you really think you're gonna fuck up AGAIN the same way? of course you're not, unless you're incredibly addled or just didn't give a shit.
or maybe your mistake wasn't really an accident... maybe you had ulterior motives, like, say... you had a general election coming in a few months and needed your hardcore foreign policy stance to look good to the populace... i don't know, something silly like that... and maybe you thought you could just slide it by the old man/woman one more time...
you know you're busted... so what do you do? you hang on and you wait... keep your error covered up, even when people start asking questions... and then, by a sheer stroke of luck, the break you've been waiting for: a retired and much-beloved CEO for the company you work for passes away... suddenly, your mistake, even though your boss is still none-too-thrilled about your LAST celebrated fuck-up, seems less than important when compared to the "sad tragedy of a fallen warrior"...
but there's just one problem...

adios
my good friend ian's boy, elric by name, has departed to live with his pop in the NW... granted the limited time i was able to see him, reno'll be a much grayer place in his absence...
in other farewells, ronnie reagan finally bought the farm his administration was able to swindle from rural folk in the eighties... and khadafi has decided to bury the hatchet in the corpse's back...
jello biafra would just plotz.

break
seein' as how there isn't much going on that wasn't expected (cheney and his haliburton ties, dubya "bucking up" the populace, etc.), i thought it would be nice to share a little of what i've been listening to...
first off - kick yerself repeatedly if you haven't heard Yeah Yeah Yeahs... incredible lyrics and attitude, and Karen O is just cute as all hell...
secondly (and maybe more importantly, though my wife may beg to differ), are the Dresden Dolls (thanks for sharing, zen)... wonderfully full sound from a two piece band (piano and drums)... be sure to check out the video on their site for "Girl Anachronism"...
that's all for now.
