It's hard to believe the Yankees are really eliminated. I thought they were a lot better than the Tigers.

City of Townsville, and its raining.

I'm so fucking miserable I want to die.

Bush again remarked that it seems "like an eternity" since December elections in Iraq but predicted that "when this chapter of history will be written . . . it's going to be a comma -- the Iraqis voted, comma, and the United States of America understood that Iraq was a central front in the war on terror and helped this young democracy flourish."

COMMA? 2700 American and tens of thousands of Iraqis dead is a comma?

You bastard. You lying, hypocritical, insensitive, cruel, rotten, evil son of a bitch.

If you dare support this man, and this party...I don't even know if you are human.

It's like this...

Either you're with the protectors of child predators...or you're with the humans.
You're with the murderers of innocent Iraqis...or you're with the humans.
You're with the "Let New Orleans Drown" people...or you're with the humans.
You're with the war profiteers...or you're with the humans.
You're with the torturers...or you're with the humans.
You're with the reckless spenders...or you're with the humans.
You're with the Bill of Rights Destroyers...or you're with the humans.

I don't understand how any thinking person can support any Republican. Anywhere.

Well, the baseball season is over. 12th in my fantasy league, out of 19. Mediocre, like much of my life.

Quick Playoff Picks:

Yankees over Tigers
Twins over A's

Yankees over Twins

Mets over Dodgers
Padres over Cardinals

Padres over Mets (this is the shocker!)

Yankees over Mets


Hate to say it, but I don't see anyone beating the Yankees this year. Robinson Cano batting ninth? Come on.

I think this is original, too:

The RNC is apparently going to have the 2008 Convention in Minneapolis.

Huh.

I didn't know they had a prison big enough to hold 10000+ Republicans at the same time.

Republican Liberal-someone who gives their tax break to charity.


That's original, I think.

"From keeping our country safe from terrorists to securing our borders to reforming the tax code to make it fairer and cutting wasteful government spending, Republicans are working for a better future for America."

From a Republican fund raising email.

Seriously, now-have they done even one of those things?

Tell me again how we're winning the war?

"Who's gonna love ya when your looks are gone?"

The President of the United States says that Article 3 of the Geneva Convention, which states that signatories will not participate in “outrages against human decency”, is “vague”. He says it is “open to interpretation.”

The continued existence of George W. Bush is an outrage against human decency.

The fact that this man claims to be a Christian nauseates me.

“Ye have heard that it hath been said, an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.
But I say unto you, that ye resist not evil;but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek,
turn to him the other also.” (Matthew 5:38-39)

You know when you make a jerk of yourself at a counter? When you’re rude, uncouth, insulting or arrogant? Do you ever wonder if the employees are talking about you?

They are. They’re probably insulting you scatologically, too.

From The New Republic this week: “Incompetence is something they (military retirees) [have] been conditioned to measure in lost lives.”

Exactly. No military person, active or retired, should vote for a Republican for exactly that reason. The current administration has shown, time and time again, that competence is no longer the test for government employment.

I didn't know he was a Kids In The Hall fan.

What's with the obscure AC/DC tunes? First, there's "Have A Drink On Me" for the movie Beerfest, and now there's "Give The Dog A Bone" on AFV?

Currently offline. I don’t know when I’m going to get this posted, but c’est le guerre.

It is really frustrating the way that big companies like Verizon and Comcast can just shit all over you, give you crappy service and treat you like nothing, and there’s not a damn thing you can do about it. I have had Verizon DSL, sort of, since Thursday, and it hasn’t worked for 24 hours yet. It is really frustrating. Of course, I can’t fail to pay-but they can fail to deliver the service, and that’s just fine.

I’ve been reading a lot of fiction, and thinking, and wanting to write. I’m not sure if I’m ever going to do it. I don’t know if I’m ever going to be the person I wanted to be.

I feel lost, trapped, alone, and bereft. Hopeless.

Cable doesn’t work either, so I can’t even watch football.

I don’t want to be this person, yet I don’t see any way to change.
