boy o'boy!! auld eire!

and awaaaaaay we go!!

hey! sign this

the letter from Rep. Conyers to Bush declaring intent to try to pass a motion to censure he and Cheney.

please sign.

Damn!! David Brooks gets apocalyptical!

!

and apoplectic!!

will it lead to apoptosis??

I don't even know what to say

except that I'm very happy that this shit is going down.

I'm talking about all the shit about Bush that's coming down now.
He said a year ago that he doesn't wiretap without a warrant, and now he said that he does.

I know, I know, it's no big shocker that this administration lies like all-get-out,
but hopefully, this'll be the straw that finally gets stuck in the camels eye and then it gets
infected and then they have to amputate at the neck.

bring it, bitch.

i love this essay by Kristof in the New York Times.


war-on-christmas-o'reilly-bullshit.

read it.

cold. so cold.

so very cold.

I guess if it gets much colder,
I may have to take shelter in my freshly killed Ton-ton.


no big deal, though.

I've got a lightsaber.

yes, I remembered I can post pictures

hey - you'd be in the spotlight too, if you had a name like that.

damn she's cute

we start 'em young,
and we start 'em on macs.


oh yeah - she's my niece

what'd you say? I'm what?

much too cool for you?

oh.
that's what I thought you said.

mmmm...summmmmmer

I miss it.

A Conversation in Context (Philadelphia, 2005)

< Con

and when those days come, the days of the apocolypse
- not the jesus one, just regular worldwide catastrophe, I truly feel like I will be among the useful.

but listen to me well,
those of you with skills only useful in this 'advanced' society of ours,
if you try to fuck around (cover YOUR back?? why should I cover YOUR back?? maybe I won't!)

then I won't hesitate.
I won't be able to.

sorry.

the write stuff

So you know how when you’re in a bad relationship with some guy, he’s totally going out, being beligerant. He had come into the whole relationship seeming like a good guy, really compassionate. Like he wanted to help you clean yourself up, stop hanging out with those guys, put on some nice clothing and get your hair and nails done.
So you go for it, and he seems relatively harmless for a bit.
Then some bad shit happens that affects a lot of people and all of a sudden he seems to get some kind of hero complex; like he’s supposed to go and help all these people. But weird-like, not in a red cross kinda way, but more jesus-on-a-cross kinda way, you know? So he’s getting all strange and and negative and stuff, and after all kinds of different shit happens,

you meet a new guy.
He seems like a pretty good, upstanding guy. Really couldn’t say much bad about him. You know a lot of people who’ve been friends with him for a long time, and they all have nice things to say. So you start hanging out with him and it turns out you like what he has to say. Turns out he says a lot of the same things that you think would be good for you – and he wants to be with you real bad.

So he starts wooing you, flowers, dinners, concerts, the whole deal and you’re thinking about this new guy. But
then the old guy comes back into your life. He just wants to keep you safe, he says; that’s all he was trying to do before, he swears. And you know what?, he says, that other guy just won’t be able to keep you safe when it comes down to it. He just won’t. When you go to the other guy, he just doesn’t seem to be able to find the words to say that it’ll be ok with him, that he’ll be able to keep you just as safe – even though you have a feeling it’s true.

What’s a body to do? You gotta trust words, and so you go with mr safe. Hey, at least you can always say, you said you would; I trusted you.


Sigh.


I guess in the end, that’s what it came down to. The guy with the right stuff on the inside was pushed away for the guy with the writers staff on his side.


But you know what makes me smile? That even though I rejected him, he still sends me emails. Little notes to let me know that he’s still around, still cares, still hopes for our future together, and still needs money.

God bless John Kerry.

hey, here's a thought

who gets up in the morning on a frigid winter day, shivers as they get out from underneath their nice warm down comforter,
looks out the window at the snow on the ground, sees the breath billowing out of bypassers mouths and

PUTS ON SHORTS!!

maybe it's 'cause I spends my whole day on a college campus, and it's just another one of those crazy college kid fads, but honestly, what the fuck.

jeopardy

have I ever mentioned that I watch this show every day?
or if I don't watch it, I record it and watch it later.

I love jeopardy and there's a decent chance that I'll kick your ass at it.

thank you Alex.
