How to Transfix Your Enemies
Mood:

mischievious
Now Playing: Siouxsie & the Banshees-Nicotine Stain
Topic: Three on a Spike

Someone is giving me the evil eye.

Ah, good day, chaps. How does this Hump Day find you? It has found me sleepless. Just completely wiped out. I don't know why either. I was pretty medicated last night, you know, cold and flu season. However, that rascally old sandman did not visit me last night. I suppose worse things could happen, like not having a place to sleep, or better still, having to share a bed with the likes of Ralphie May or William Hung. GAG!

I would like to suggest that evreyone see Van Helsing. It was a really good movie. I learned a few interesting things from that movie, rather from behind the scenes. Such as, Dr. Van Helsing was created by author Bram Stoker. Abraham Van Helsing, which was also Bram's first name was created as a character that represented him, or so it is thought. Dr. Van Helsing made his first appearance in Stoker's novel Dracula. In the movie, Van Helsing he is monster hunter rather than just a vampire hunter/anthropology professor. And not just any hunter, he is refered to as "the left hand of God." But I shant continue to give it all away. Just see it.

? Bram Stoker's Dracula is the biggest selling novel in the world and is only outsold by the Bible. ?

What is often believed about vampires

According to tradition, a vampire is a person who does not die, an "un-dead," whose corpse rises from the grave at night and seeks to suck the blood of the living. The vampire must return to the grave at dawn.

Vampires dislike mirrors and silver, so silver crosses or icons were frequently displayed in houses for protection.

Excommunicated people, unbaptized children, criminals, babies born with teeth, witches, magicians, and the seventh son of a seventh son can all become vampires.

Various methods have been used to protect against vampires. Driving a stake of ash or aspen wood through the heart during the daylight hours will kill one. Until 1823, when it was made illegal, it was common practice in England to drive a stake through the heart of suicides. In Romania, red-hot bars were often used. The body would then be burned or reburied at a crossroads.

The Real Dracula

Vlad III Dracula (Also known as Vlad Tepes /tse'pesh/ or Vlad the Impaler), lived November/December, 1431 - December, 1476, reigned as Prince of Wallachia 1448, 1456-1462 and 1476. He was born in Sighisoara, Transylvania. Thanks to his rule, Wallachia preserved its independence in relation with the Ottoman threat. He is known in Turkish as Kaziglu Bey, or "the Impaler Prince", and is a popular folk hero in Romania and Moldova even today. However, he was a savage ruler - his enemies were impaled, hence his nickname.

In 1431 King Sigismund made Vlad Dracul governor of Transylvania and it was here that his second son, also named Vlad was born. Vlad would be known as "Son of the Dragon" or "Dracula".

In 1436, Vlad Dracul's ambitions lead him to gather supporters for an attempt to seize the throne of Wallachia. This he did, killing the incumbent king, a Danesti, named Alexandru I, and crowned himself Vlad II.

Soon after gaining his throne, Vlad invited the Boyars to his castle in Targoviste. After a day of festivities, Vlad impaled everyone to avenge the death of his father.

During his reign, Vlad was called Tepes (although he called himself Dracula or the son of the leader of the Dracul order) by his people and his enemies. Tepes, or impaler in Romanian languages, was used because of Vlad's habit of impaling people and then supposedly drinking their blood.

Relative Vocabulary

aceldama, n. - site or scene of violence or bloodshed

cruentation, v. - leaking or oozing of blood from dead body

dormition, v. - falling asleep; death

emptysis, v. - spitting up of blood

funest, adj. - deadly; lamentable

? Elizabeth Bathory was said to be a vampire, however, she bathed in the blood of young virgin girls to keep from growing old. ?

My Enfeebled Incapacity for the Redundant
Mood:

irritated
Now Playing: The Used-Bulimic
Topic: No Peanutbutter & Jelly

Sure, you have freedom of choice.

The sickness has finally hit me. 9 months without a single cold virus and now it's here and wants to kick
my ass. We'll see. I would just like to send a shout out to all the germ enablers, virus hosts and the like.
Without you, this illness would not be possible. Did I say, "Thanks?" Oh well, probably because I am not
all that greatful for it. Fuck all. But I will be covering the facts about germ/virus spreading today. Hope it
informs you people of what not to do when you're sick, namely, going around other people to spread the
joy. It's HELL. And I have people to take care and no, I don't get paid time off, or time off at all for that
matter. The resentment slowly sets in and all I can do it spread it back, pay it forward. Dumb asses.

? Contrary to popular belief, cold weather neither increases your susceptibility nor alters the course of a cold. ?

The Cold Hard Facts:
> Once outside the nasal passages, the cold virus can survive up to three hours on inanimate objects and skin.
> The flu is an acute respiratory infection caused by a virus. The virus is spread through airborne droplets of
respiratory fluids when a person coughs or sneezes.
> Colds can occur year-round, but are most common during the fall and winter.
> Children under 17 years of age catch an average of five to 12 colds per year

How to prevent your nasty disease from spreading:

Since colds are caused by so many different viruses, the immunities you develop to one virus won't
protect you against other cold viruses. While there are no sure ways to prevent a cold, the following
precautions may help you to avoid catching a cold.

Wash your hands frequently; this is the best defense.

Stay away from people who have colds, especially when they sneeze or cough. Most colds are picked
up either by hand-to-hand contact, or by inhaling the infected droplets from a cough or sneeze.

Sick Words:

germicide, n. - substance that kills germs

hydropathy, n. - treating diseases with water

iatraliptic, adj. - relating to the curing of diseases by means of unguents

klendusic, adj. - able to withstand disease due to protective mechanis

lazar, n. - leper or person with similar pestilential disease

So, as you can see, I am full of resentment and HATE HATE HATE it when people get me sick! I am absolutely
dreadful when this happens. I believe I shalln't go any further on this matter as I feel I have made my case.

Happy thoughts for today... just to sort of make up for my hostility.
Be happy while you're living, for you're a long time dead.
Save the whales. Collect the whole set.
A day without sunshine is like......night.
On the other hand....you have different fingers.

Ho Ho Holiday Madness
Mood:

a-ok
Now Playing: Amazingly, I am not listening to anything right now!!!
Topic: This aint no tree!

The world is black
And hearts are cold...

Another week and that much closer to Christmas. Oh, joy... the power of spending. A great money
holiday with all the trimmings. It is not even about Christmas anymore, it's about buying crap for
people who don't need any more crap to begin with. Maybe socks are necessary, and just maybe
new underwear, but do we need a holiday to buy that? No... you were going to buy it anyway, so
church it up with a fancy title?

The tradition of the Christmas tree was started in Germany. But do you know why? Well, In the 7th
century a monk from Crediton, Devonshire, went to Germany to teach the Word of God. He did many
good works there, and spent much time in Thuringia, an area which was to become the cradle of the
Christmas Decoration Industry.

? In 1836, Alabama is the first state in the USA to declare Christmas a legal holiday. ?

Legend has it that he used the triangular shape of the Fir Tree to describe the Holy Trinity of God,
the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The converted people began to revere the Fir tree as God's Tree,
as they had previously revered the Oak. By the 12th century it was being hung, upside-down, from
ceilings at Christmas time in Central Europe, as a symbol of Christianity.

The first decorated tree was at Riga in Latvia, in 1510. In the early 16th century, Martin Luther is
said to have decorated a small Christmas Tree with candles, to show his children how the stars
twinkled through the dark night.

? Most artificial trees are manufactured in Korea, Taiwan, or Hong Kong. ?

In the mid 16th century, Christmas markets were set up in German towns, to provide everything
from gifts, food and more practical things such as a knife grinder to sharpen the knife to carve the
Christmas Goose! At these fairs, bakers made shaped gingerbreads and wax ornaments for people
to buy as souvenirs of the fair, and take home to hang on their Christmas Trees.

The best record we have is that of a visitor to Strasbourg in 1601. He records a tree
decorated with "wafers and golden sugar-twists (Barleysugar) and paper flowers of
all colours". The early trees were biblically symbolic of the Paradise Tree in the Garden
of Eden. The many food items were symbols of Plenty, the flowers, originally only red
(for Knowledge) and White (for Innocence).

Ok, now that we have covered that, let's move onto other things, shall we?

Religiously Speaking

? agape, n. -

selfless Christian love; a feast in celebration of such love

? baetyl, n. -

magical or holy meteoric stone

? cacaesthesia, n. -

morbid sensation

? diamante, adj. -

glittering; decoration using glitter

? epiclesis, v. -

calling on the Holy Spirit to consecrate the Eucharist

It's A Fact!!!

The Puritans in America tried to make Thanksgiving Day the most important annual festival
instead of Christmas.

In 1643, the British Parliament officially abolishes the celebration of Christmas.

6 December is St Nicholas's Day - the first of the gift giving days, especially in Holland and
Belgium.

The sharply pointed leaves were to symbolize the thorns in Christ's crown and the red berries
drops of his blood. Holly became a nativity tradition

That is all for today. Yeah, I am lazy... so!?!?!

Double the creepy, double the freak.

Oh joy! The day is fine and mostly perfect. I am starting today of with a seperate page for you to check out. It
is a hilarious illustration on the horoscope, whether or not you believe in that sort of thing, it is pretty funny by
the makers of "Toothpaste For Dinner." The link is below. The song that I am listening to right now is one which
always reminds me of this time of year, I feel a chill when I hear it, and most appropriately it is cold. Yes, Peter
Murphy rocks!

Horoscope People

Funeral homes are actually banned by federal law from embalming your beloved departed without your
permission. This will save you hundreds or thousands of dollars in costs, and it actually isn't likely to stink
up the funeral too much. There is no legal requirement for embalming (except under extraordinary circum-
stances related to the condition of the corpse or cause of death). Your tax dollars at work!

The Ever Controversial SpongeBob HomoPants

In 2002, homosexual rumors persisted as SpongeBob reached the upper echelon of status in the gay com-
munity. In numerous episodes, he's observed holding hands and promenading (yes, actually skipping and
prancing) around the town square with his best friend and neighbor Patrick Star. Not even Squidward Ten-
tacles escaped the controversy, as mounting anecdotal evidence pointed toward his fondness for classical
music, practicing the clarinet, and taking long bubblebaths. As a result, novelty shops catering to gay clien-
tele in New York and Atlanta regularly experience difficulty keeping SpongeBob memorabilia in stock.

Tom Kenny skirted the issue on Late Night with Conan O'Brien: "Whether [SpongeBob]
is intended to be a gay character or not, it's never been addressed by us on the show."
He went on to add that all the main characters are hiding "horrible secrets" of their own.
Meanwhile, a different (but equally horrific) urban legend swept elementary schools
across the nation: that a retarded child drowned while trying to reach SpongeBob's
pineapple-shaped house under the sea. Rumor? Or no?

In January 2004, a single-sphered SpongeBob SquarePants balloon traveled over 800
miles at a height of 10,000 feet from Central Mexico to southeast Texas, thirty miles
southwest of Houston. There was a note attached, wishing the recipient a merry Christmas.
Fort Bend County Office of Emergency Management Staff Meteorologist Ron Stagno
announced the balloon probably made the journey in two days.

With that I leave you with your morning NickToons. Good Day.

Now Playing: A Perfect Circle-eMOTIVE (the whole cd)
Topic: A state of alarm or dread

There'a a hole in my soul
and it's filled with dope.

The weather is great outside today. Finally. I will leave it at that. It's a glorious Saturday and I have no plans. Besides not having any plans, I have NO kiddos either. Woo Hoo. So, maybe I will make a plan or two. I am so indecisive.

? An individual blood cell takes about 60 seconds to make a complete circuit of the body. ?

I have had the opportunity to listen to the new cd , eMOTIVE by A Perfect Circle in it's entirety. At about track 3, I realize I have heard these songs, not in this fashion, but I definitely know these songs. I was listening to a very different take on "(What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love and Understanding?" which I have only ever heard by Elvis Costello. So, I decide, what the heck! I will look it up and see the playlist. Sure enough. An entire cd with cover versions of protest songs spanning three generations. At the moment, the song that is ringing in my ears was originally done by Marvin Gaye, "What's Going On?" Here is the tagline straight from the official APC site:

With "eMOTIVe," A Perfect Circle restore rock `n' roll to its revolutionary roots by throwing a 12-megaton musical bomb in the face of the ruling class. Described by APC's Maynard James Keenan as "a collection of songs about war, peace, love and greed," the astonishing set blends all-new original material with a provocative selection of cover versions. The tracks chosen bridge three decades of protest songs, spanning an array of genres - hardcore punk and heavy metal, new wave and Delta blues, folk rock and rhythm & blues. Among the insurgent classics reinterpreted on "eMOTIVe" are John Lennon's "Imagine," Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On," Memphis Minnie's blues stomper, "When The Levee Breaks" (made famous by Led Zeppelin), Depeche Mode's "People Are People," Devo's "Freedom Of Choice," Black Flag's "Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie," Fear's "Let's Have A War," Joni Mitchell's "Fiddle And The Drum," and the Nick Lowe (by way of Elvis Costello) anti-anthem, "(What's So Funny `Bout) Peace, Love And Understanding." The album kicks off with an explosive take on "Annihilation," originally recorded by Berkeley aggro-punk legends, Crucifix. The eMOTIVe release is a limited edition special package that includes a lenticular cover.

ciplinarian, n. - one who teaches disorder

flagellantism, n. - the practice of whipping oneself or another

bibliotaph, n. - one who hoards or hides books

? |Chocolate contains phenylethylamine (PEA), a natural substance that is reputed to stimulate the same reaction in the body as falling in love.
? |Beethoven who was a coffee lover, was so particular about his coffee that he always counted 60 beans each cup when he prepared his brew.
? |In 1938 Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel sold all rights to the comic-strip character Superman to their publishers for $130.
? |The chemical n-acetyl-cysteine found in raw eggs is proven to help hangovers.( But I would never try it, because of salmonella.)
? |For two years, during the 1970s, Mattel marketed a doll called "Growing Up Skipper." Her breasts grew when her arm was turned.

Fancy seeing you here.

I did no morning blog today. Had an endoscopy done to see the extent of the damage that lie in my stomach.
The Images are frightening yet very explanitory as I now know why I am feeling the way I have been for the
past 6 + months. The doctor promises to "fix me" and make it better. Only time will tell. I am not in pain now
for the narcotics they used to put me out whilst under the scope are still in effect, and I have slept much.

My kiddo hooked me up with the two most righteous cds I could want, The Used (debut) and The Used Maybe
Memories which came with a dvd. Most excellent. I am a very happy girl.

Topic: Incoherent Laugh Track

This may hurt a little, but it's
something you'll get used to.

I know the blog has been pretty sucky lately. I am painfully aware of that fact, so I would like to thank each of you for
NOT saying it. Honestly. Today promises to offer a better entry. We swears it. Oh, if you find the above image to be a
distraction (or even a scoach disturbing) just click the stop button up there on your browser. It works every time.

? If the sun stopped shining suddenly, it would take eight minutes for people on earth to be aware of the fact. ?

What exactly is Kosher?

The laws of Kashrut, "keeping kosher" are the Jewish dietary laws. Food in accord with Jewish law is termed kosher, from the Hebrew term kasher, meaning "fit" (fit for human consumption). Food not in accord with Jewish law is termed treifah or treif, "torn"; the term originally referred to animals which had been slaughtered after being mortally wounded by wild beasts and therefore were not fit for human consumption.

The basic laws of kashrut are in the Biblical book of Leviticus, their details explicated in the oral law (the Mishnah and the Talmud) and codified by the later rabbinical authorities.

There are actually varying degrees of Kashrut, with the ultimate degree shading into behavior more than just the food itself. For instance, meat which is not Kosher may be sold to the general public or used for pet food; however, milk and meat may not be combined together, even if the resulting mixture is to be discarded, let alone sold or fed to a pet. Pork, not matter how it is slaughtered is not kosher and cannot be consumed by people of the Jewish faith.

Jewish law states that kosher mammals and birds must be slaughtered according

to a strict set of guidelines, the slaughter (shechita) being designed to minimize the pain inflicted. This necessarily eliminates the practice of hunting wild game for food, unless it can be captured alive and ritually slaughtered.

It is forbidden to mix dairy and meat, either while cooking or serving. Therefore, one would not been able to have milk with their dinner if it contained meat and would require a waiting period of 1-6 hours to ingest either of the two following the other.

All vegetables are considered kosher.

OH, The feel of Corduroy
Corduroy is often reported to be a French fabric, literally "fabric of the king". This appears to be an erroneous report. Corduroy instead appears to be a late-18th century English invention and initially worn by people of humble circumst- ances. Cotton corduroy was widely used by workers in the 19th century and became a popular children's fabric by the early 20th century because of its warmth and durability. American boys commonly wore cord knickers to school in the fall and winter. British and French boys more commonly wore cord shorts. Some schools adopted school uniforms. The German Wandervogel often wore cord shorts as French Scouts did later. Corduroy was eclipsed by denim after World War II, but is still popular for children's clothing. And quite "retro."

Development
All too many poorly reserached clothing texts will repeat the common misunderstanding that the term corduroy is a corruption of the French "corde du roi", corde or fabric of the king. This certainly sounds plausible as "corde du roi" does indeed look a great deal like "corduroy". It was supposedly a material used as the hunting livery for the King of France's attendants on the Royal hunt. The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) has researched word origins and development through inumerable period quotations over time. For corduroy, the OED reports, "a name apparently of English invention; either originally intended, or soon after assumed, to represent a supposed French 'corde du roi' (the King's cord), it being a kind of corded fustian." Fustian is a stout fabric made of cotton or wool or even low-quality wool.

I may not be a smart man, but I do know what nuculer is!

As anti-american as this sounds, (as if I ever cared anyway,) DISSENT does not mean unpatriotic, however, I feel that if I were "patriotic" I would only be supporting terrorism. Specifically the ~~war~~ not "war," the terror in Iraq where we have been killing and terrorizing the country for too long and it looks like it is just going to continue. I would not be surprised if this was the downfall of our government. There goes the world, right down the fucking drain. He's fucked it up for too long and now... fuck... he's anti-everything and he may not last much longer. So, let's look to the good book of CENTURIES by Nostradamus.

"Nothing is certain but the unforeseen." ~ An ancient Chinese Philosopher

Century X
Quatrain 10
Stained with murder and enormous adulteries,
Great enemy of the entire human race:
One who will be worse than his grandfathers, uncles or fathers,
In steel, fire, waters, bloody and inhuman.

Quatrain 32
The great empire, everyone would be of it,
One will come to obtain it over the others:
But his realm and state will be of short duration,
Two years will he be able to maintain himself on the sea.

Quatrain 36
Upon the King of the stump speaking of wars,
The United Isle will hold him in contempt:
For several good years one gnawing and pillaging,
Through tyranny in the isle esteem changing.

What do you make of these? They were originally written in French, so I know there will be variations from the translation. But they were not translated by me. If you think you can decipher these riddling predictions, please post them. There are no right or wrong answers. It's all in how one perceives them.

"Woe is to you who cannot read the signs of the times..." ~ Saint Luke

I watched the biography of Jeffery Dahmer last night. Weird stuff, I tell ya. I think I will profile him, astrologically, and other "forbidden" ways, i.e., numerogoly, chinese astro, etc.

Jeffrey Lionel Dahmer b. 4:34pm on 5-21-1960 in Milwaukee, WI

NAME ANALYSIS
Words that embodied his presence were "Misadventure, Retribution".

Words that embodied things that may have been a part of him were "Abandon, Demon, Falcon, Feline, Forge, Libido, Limbo, Mars, Metal, Silk, Urge, Wave, Wine".

Words that embodied people or things in his periphery were "Ballet, Bliss, Cage, Community, Devil, Door, Earth, Ebony, Elegance, Fame, Fertility, Finance, Flood, Funk, Gem, Giraffe, Heart, Immunity, Infinity, Ingenuity, Kaleidoscope, Linguistics, Magenta, Mist, Monolith, Pearl, Platinum, Pope, Pride, Profanity, Pursuit, Puzzle, Rabbit, Riddle, Rum, Sculptor, Sea, Ship, Staff, Stage, Steel, Strategy, Technology, Temptation, Trance, Ugliness, Virility, Voyeur".

In His Spiritual Life...

Words that embodied things that may have been a part of him were "Black, Car".

Words that embodied people or things in his periphery were "Danger, Enigma,
Garden, Green, Harmony, Indulgence, Juxtaposition, Lord, Pattern, Pledge, Poem, Puppet, Speed, Terror, Thirst".

BIRTH DATE ANAYLSIS
The Sun was found in his eighth house at the time of birth. This inclines his individuality to be oriented, in one way or another, to the deeper sides of life. His sexual feelings are long-lasting, intense, and vital. His inner self seems attracted to unusual matters related to the termination of life-death and its mysteries.

Some restlessness, changeability and lack of persistence is noted in his life. His main feature is that of constantly favoring the fusing of two things or people together.

Saturn here represents duties that he must comply with and which are of an intellectual nature. It also points to tests of character occurring at critical points of human relationship, which can only be successfully "passed" by developing an altruistic and compassionate nature that will make pardon and forgiveness feasible. He want to be loved, and he would constantly dwell on this fact. He hated being alone.

If his inner growth was such that his vital energies were oriented toward spiritual rather than material pleasures, then he would arrive at gratification and happiness through inquiry into the mysteries of life and death.

Now we can look at his life and where it lead him.

Jeffrey's childhood started like any other he had two parents who loved and adored there son dearly giving him what ever his heart desired. Joyce Dahmer started a scrap book on her son recording events that happened in his life, his first step, his first accident, his first tooth, his first haircut and even his first scolding.

The carrying of Jeffrey had been hard on Joyce Dahmer and every little thing seemed to annoy her. So Lionel being the husband that he was and wanting the best for his wife they moved to his mothers house, but the crack's in the marriage started to show early. There were constant fights between Joyce and Lionel Dahmer and Jeffrey took each of these fights to heart. Little did they realise that there constant fighting would be the one of the reasons for Jeffrey's downfall.

A short time before Jeffrey's fourth birthday, he was diagnosed with a double hernia that needed to be operated on. This operation left Jeffrey feeling open and exposed nobody explained to Dahmer what was going on. He felt scared by the operation, complete strangers coming up to him and exploring his body. This experience is said to have marked his subconscious forever.

But like every little boy of Jeffrey's age he was just like anybody else climbing apple trees, riding his bike and playing in coal dust and coming home dirty. Though he was painfully shy while growing up he over came this in time.

By the time Jeffrey turned six his mother gave birth to a second son who she allowed Jeffery to name David. Though this did not have a dramatic effect on Dahmer's life he stayed pretty much neutral to his brothers existence and they never became close.

By the time of his second son's birth Lionel Dahmer and his family moved into there own house at 4480 West Bath Road, surrounded by open forest where Jeffrey could lose himself in a world of make believe. He would collect roadkill and return to his back yard to thoroughly examine their insides as this seemed to fascinate him and he wanted to know more.

As Jeffrey grew towards puberty, his sinking isolation and shyness was confirmed once again. An early sexual experiment with a another boy proved to be disappointing and joyless.

Jeffery should have come to a time in his life where he wanted to experience the joys of life and the companionship of friends, but Jeffrey withdrew into himself and kept his life somewhat of a secret.

Jeffrey's Dahmer's life conditioned him for the hard struggle that lay ahead, little did he know that in just over 16 years he would become one of America's most famous serial killers having murdered 17 people, dismembering them and sleeping with there corpses and keeping parts of his victims for trophy's.

He had also attempted to keep his lovers alive, yet submissive, by drilling a hole into their skull, while alive, and injecting an acid that would inhibit their brain, but keep them alive so he could "keep" them. The victims never lived longer than 1 day after having this done. In looking at his victims, he seemed to prefer men that where not causcasian. The discovery of his crimes threw the black community into a whirl.

Assimilate. Good Day.

DISSENT!

Election day... man, election day. I will spend this time covering some facts about the Bush Administration today.
Although I am not trying to persuade anyone in either direction, I think if I shared with you what I know, I would
be passing along more than just unimportant vocabulary words that you may never use or remember after this
day, but these facts will stay with you. This is not opinion based. My opinion is in red.

In 2001, the Bush administration announced the proposed sale of 5.9 million acres in the eastern Gulf of Mexico
(which by any common sense definition means off the coast of Florida) for oil and gas exploration and develop-
ment. This original proposal would have allowed drilling within 30 miles of the Florida Coast. This section of the
Gulf is called Area 181. Under intense pressure from Senator Bob Graham and others in Florida, the original Bush
proposal was scaled back to 1.47 million acres. Nonetheless, this sale went forward -- on George W. Bush's watch.
256 blocks were up for sale and 95 leases were sold. That's environmental concern?!?!

In May 2003, President Bush landed on an aircraft carrier in a flight suit, stood under a banner proclaiming "Mission
Accomplished," and triumphantly announced that major combat operations were over in Iraq. Asked if he had any
regrets about the stunt, Bush said he would do it all over again. Uh, insert joke here.

Vice President Cheney told voters that unless they elect George Bush in November, "we'll get hit again" by terrorists.
And who has our missing weapons now? Bush or no Bush, we will get hit again anyway.

The Bush Administration awarded a multibillion-dollar no-bid contract to Halliburton--a company that still pays Vice
President Cheney hundreds of thousands of dollars in deferred compensation each year (Cheney also has Halliburton
stock options). The company then repeatedly overcharged the military for services, accepted kickbacks from subcon-
tractors and served troops dirty food. WTF!?! Send our troops off to die and give them substandard food that wouldn't
even be dropped over Afghanistan!?!?

In violation of international law, the Bush Administration hid prisoners from the Red Cross so the organization couldn't
monitor their treatment. Why do Georgie got so much to hide?

If you are sitting there shaking your head in disbelief, I suggest you check the facts. If you are shaking your head in
disgust, remember, that's not all, there is so much more, enough to keep this blog alive and kicking for the next year.
But I do not feel I should devote my time or energy to bashing [the administration]. The facts speak for themselves &
I am not trying to advocate anyone. My opinion is we should get Bush the fuck out of office. Let him go on about living
his right-wing Christian lifestyle in the public eye. He is a cancer. He is a liar. He is starting a Holocaust.

The Idiots Are Taking Over

The hands that cling and feet that follow.

November 1? Today is a few different holidays, really, which include All Saints Day, La Samhna (the traditional first day
of Winter in modern Ireland,) The Day of the Dead, World Vegan Day. World Vegan Day means I am going to have eggs.
bacon and choclate milk for breakfast. Just kidding. I am sure there are more holidays celebrated elsewhere, if you care,
you can look it up for yourself.

Lovely is the day outside today. Rain everywhere, not really hot (as of yet!) and it will be dark in less than 12 hours. How
awesome is that? Tomorrow is election day, and the whole point now is to get Bush out of office before he has us all killed
with some sort of "nuculer" bomb.

Riddles in Rhyme

This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays kings, ruins town,
And beats high mountains down.
