Destroy them all, God knows his children

God bless our great president.

In all seriousness how can you fucking sleep at night knowing that you are personally responsible for over 50,000 deaths? OK, I guess you have to sleep since your body demands that you do. I guess the real question is how can you stand in front of people while smirking like a third-grader with a snowball and claim the world is safer. When this dink is defeated this coming Twosday and he finally slinks out of the Whitehouse in early 2005 he is going to disappear from the national scene like no president ever has.

One of my favorite bands

Right now I am listening to a bootleg concert of the Butthole Surfers recorded in 1985 in Germany. It's so cool, I can't believe how clear this audience recording is. It's a pretty hot show. In fact throughout the whole show so far there is a constant, and unobtrusive, buzz from the crowd. Lots of "whoos" and various other vocal appreciations. I found it at this site. I highly recommend browsing this site if you like unedited concert recordings. Maybe you'll get lucky and find a show by one of your favorite bands. Just don't expect any real big names except for the Grateful Dead. If you are a Mike Watt or a Minutemen fan the site is a friggin' goldmine.

I also found a few Waco Brothers' show. God bless the internet.

The spin! Oh, the spin is out of control!

The news crew was based just south of Al Qaqaa, and drove two or three miles north of there with soldiers on April 18, 2003.

Comedy for the ages

Is it just me or is it hard for everyone to not bust a gut laughing when you see an AOL commericial hyping their customer service?

Look at all dem peoples

For the last ten working days here at my library branch there has been a constant line of people waiting to get in for early voting. Can you imagine that? Americans standing in line to vote! Wow.

You know after bashing our dingbat president for the last couple of years on this blog I have been trying to find something positive to say about the worthless turd and I think I found it. He is such a shitty and divisive president that he may directly cause the biggest turnout of voters in the last 100 years. God bless our crappy president!

I voted today and it felt really good to push that button on the machine marked "John Kerry." I have a recommendation to any undecided voters out there. If you are still undecided when you walk up to that voting machine go ahead and press the John Kerry button and take a gander at it. It'll feel so good I think you'll leave it that way and go on with the rest your ballot.

This is not political

I looked over my blog today and found that most of my entries for the last two weeks have been political in nature. Ill-informed diatribes and callous fearmongering on my part but still political. I apologize. I just write whatever is on my mind and then log off and let the world come and be entertained.

New Music

The other day I saw that Megadeth had released a new album. I went through a little metal phaze back in the early 90's. I tried to like it but most of it was shit. Megadeth rose above the genre for a while and recorded some darn good music. I do remember some people scoffed at their name as childish hyperbole but we live in a world where megadeath caused by weapons of mass kaplooey is a real concern and the band is of this world...you know what I mean. The new album is called "The System has Failed" and it's not bad. I say not bad because half of it is incredible and half of it is radio-friendly crap. But when it's good, boy oh boy, they haven't pouned stuff like that out for years. It's enough to cause you to make the devil horn sign with your hand and bite your lip and sneer for a second. I guess we can thank the shitty political climate created by George and his boys for one positive occurance, they managed to make Dave Mustaine angry again.

Holy Cow

I just got watching the new and obscene campaign commercial that was approved by our beloved president. Is this the same guy that accused Kerry of using fear in his campaign? Someone who is this irresponsible with his advertisements doesn't deserve his job or our respect.

George Bush: Full of shit

"With Tuesday’s attacks, Abu Musab Zarqawi, a Jordanian militant with ties to al-Qaida, is now blamed for more than 700 terrorist killings in Iraq...Military officials insist their case for attacking Zarqawi’s operation was airtight, but the administration feared destroying the terrorist camp in Iraq could undercut its case for war against Saddam...And despite the Bush administration’s tough talk about hitting the terrorists before they strike, Zarqawi’s killing streak continues today."

Baseball Heaven

I don't watch must baseball on TV during the regular season for various reasons but over the last three days I have watched some fantastic baseball being played by the Redsox and the Yankees during the American League Championship series. To me nothing beats playoff baseball.

Baseball creates a tension that cannot be matched by football. If your favorite football team has the ball on the one-yard line and they are down by five and need a touchdown and there is enough time left for one last play generally the team is going to run their play and they will either win or lose. In a baseball game a similar situation can last for two seconds or ten minutes as a batter and a pitcher duel each other. You don't know at the exact moment that final out or big hit will occur. It's an anticipation that cannot be equalled by sports that are timed.

I only wish baseball would cut a week off their regular season so the division series could be a best of seven and snow in the north would not be a threat during the world series.

Skeered enuff yet?

Ladies and gentleman, your vice president: "The biggest threat we face now as a nation is the possibility of terrorists ending up in the middle of one of our cities with deadlier weapons than have ever before been used against us - biological agents or a nuclear weapon or a chemical weapon of some kind - to be able to threaten the lives of hundreds of thousands of Americans. You have to get your mind around that concept."

Oh my god

This is one of the coolest videos I have ever seen. I don't remember ever seeing someone appear on a show just so he can tell the hosts how much their show sucks. John Stewart just might save America.

You gots to be in awe of how the hosts of a supposed debate show refused to debate John Stewart's accusations of non-debate on the show.
