Desperate Housewives

This morning I heard a report on CNN headline news about how given current economic conditions there are a lot more marriages on the rocks (given that financial reasons are the number one cause of relationship problems). However, a growing number of these couples can't afford to move out, and thus are staying together, this according to the national court lawyers somethin' or other. To be honest... this story made me laugh out loud, and maybe that makes me a bad person. But if we can't find humor in our struggles than all we'd do is cry.

Workin' for Obama...?

So I filled out my job application today to work for the new Obama administration. As I was in the process of filling it out, I was getting the overwhelming sense that I might not get a call back on this one. It started when I saw the note that says some positions will require you to go through a congressional hearing, and public disclosure of your assets and other monetary gains. I don't think it will take them too long to go through all my assets. As I went on there was a question that asked, what is the largest budget you have had direct oversight on? The lowest option was 2 million. I checked off N/A.

Ridin Dirty

I dunno about anyone else, but I'm hoping that Obama holds way back on going negative. I was pretty sure I was voting for him a long time ago, and he's not going to lose me by going gonzo apeshit on McCain or Palin, but I'd kinda hoped he was better than that.

I know its hard to hold back when the hockey mom says you are "pal-in" around with terrorists, but we kind of expect that from the fundamentalists. Playing the fear card has been their Modus Operandi for too many years to count. We don't have to become them to beat them.

I'm also getting tired of the McCain is Bush shit. And fuck anyone who calls me naieve... you assholes should know better. McCain ain't Bush, and everybody knows it. Anyone who saw what happened to McCain in South Carolina in 2000 know that McCain isn't Bush. But you don't have to be Bush to be a machochistic irritable power hungry little bastard. I'm just saying... different monsters, different names.

I expected McCain to turn into the political monster he is now as soon as he won the primaries, and he certainly didn't let me down. But lets be honest, he was the one saying NO to torture when everyone else was avoiding looking anyone in the eyes.

To Tell You The Absolute Truth I think McCain/Palin would have a better chance going negative on Bush at this point. The 15% of Americans who still support the president sure as hell weren't leaning for McCain anyway.

John McCain Poops in the Tub!

I'm really just curious to see if that title were to draw an unusual amount of traffic here. How many people a day are googling "McCain + poop + tub." I usually check it on a daily basis just to make sure that he's retaining his mental faculties. As soon as he starts pooping in the tub... I'm gonna know about. So check back here... you're source for Presidential BM news.

You've Been Screened!!

.... I think we were more virtuous people before the advent of caller ID.

Big Bang Part Due

So yesterday I was discussing the particle accelerator thing in Switzerland and how there is supposedly a couple of crackpot theories about how doing this could be the end of the world as we know it (fade in that REM song). One possibility is that when the particles collide they actually create a black hole that will suck about half of the earth in on itself. The way that I see it... with Switzerland being nearly halfway across the globe from me, I'm probably ok. I mean, maybe I'll lose a toe, or get my leg stuck in it, but I think a black hole has nothing on me. Option B is that it somehow converts normal matter into some sort of anti-matter because the quarks are flipped around somehow. Apparently this type of matter has the amazing christian ability to convert other molecules into this altered form of matter when they come in contact, and then pretty soon the whole world becomes.... something else. I could imagine worse things happening... like accidentally drinking rancid milk. So when it really comes down to it, either it happens or it doesn't... it's a 50/50 chance that the world survives this experiment. I'm a gambling man, I say we go for it.

The Truth Is Here...

No worries... I'm here to publish the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.... so help me Sarah Palin.
