Totally crap day... rain like mad and chilly.
I walked the boys up to their bus stop this morning... got soaked. Short old guy hair... that hasn't totally give'en up yet... tends to stand up and take weird shapes when it gets rained on. :)
Last night was fucking blast!!!
We watched the chicks on Desperate ... and concluded that they could replace Hatcher with almost anyone and I wouldn't give a care... but everybody else is just perfect for their roles. :) (and ps. Zack is gonna flip out... you know it... oh oh oh ... and the mini-chick... screaming for the bathroom at the pharmacy... hahahahahaha... I love the way she deals with her priest. :D)
... ok and the "blast" part... was spending like three hours working on about 40 seconds of video ... haha... gah! I wish I could get paid to work on video.
I'm totally in a groove vibe working on a way to present the several moments of crummy digi cam video and stills that I capped at the Garbage concert. It will prol'y be a few minutes long (only) but I'm having ridiculous amounts of fun working on every second of it. (and trying to figure out Adobe Premiere... in glorious detail).
Random, but true: I wish I could speak portuguese and spanish... I wish ... as in ... The Matrix... "Link... I need to be a pilot of an apache b-12 helicopter..."...
and... I keep sneezing. Big head smashing star seeing face grabbing sneezes... sigh.
wearing
~ black ftls
~ new deep green (????) new wrinkle proof, stain resis dockers... and dude... at least I didn't let the kids talk me into the "adjustable waist" pants... Those bad boys are the ultimate cave-in.

Yesterday was the anniversary of Georgie Boy standing on that ship and saying "Mission Accomplished".
To those americans that still hold fast to the notion that a) There was no choice... we had to do it to protect the world! b) The Iraqui people love us... we're doing a lot of good and c) It was and continues to be reasonable pay back for the World Trade Center attacks.... I have to say a) bull shit... b) they do not and you are not and c) Are you on crack?
I want to ask... I want to ask you one question!
When will it be enough?
George was just telling the press the other day that "we wont leave until the we get the job done".... I mean... seriously... what is that job? What are the key measurements of success? How many of your citizens have to sit and stair at the pictures of their now dead children before you come around? What the hell is it going to take to get you to turn from the god dammed dark side and see the fricking light?
Forget that your leader is a pin head of proportions that defy definition...
Forget that the current administration is corrupt beyond the measurement of popular wisdom...
And forget that your country will be on a panic run within 40 years about oil shortages and will be squashed economically by China...
Forget all that...
Your soldiers are dying... and they aren't actually doing anything remotely related to peace and harmony let alone to protect the United States... why???
Why the fuck are you letting this happen?
I met people whom I suspect are actual george loving republicans... and they are not, generally speaking, stupid people... So what gives?

Dear Stephen Harper;
You are a flip-chart. You talk with one side of your mouth and act with the other... You are a megalomaniac flip-chart and you are about to spend $300 million of my money - well, ok... of Canadians tax dollars ... because you can taste blood. Not because you have actually listened to your constituents... not because canadians actually want an election... but only because you can taste blood. Personally... if tasting blood is such a big deal for you, you moron, maybe someone will punch you in the mouth and you can suck your own blood for a while.
Canadians elected a minority government because they were sick of the way a majority government was working. We asked for conciliatory governance... we asked for some honesty... sober second thought and an effort to find middle ground on the many moral and social issues that are facing us this decade. We wont quickly trade that in so we can become ruled by our anger over a political scandal from ten years ago.
Today ... you and your punk (please put this guy in jail) leader-of-the-block-quebecois buddy will force the government to fall... (and if not today... than one day this week) and I will hate you forever. The thing is... I guarantee you that I am not alone.

K... time for all kinds of work.
See ya.
