Bad Attitude Friday Night
Anyone reading this evening's blog may wonder what my problem is--but I am in a bad mood tonight. Maybe it is due to the warm humid sticky weather we have been having, or the misery in the world the last week (but in 10,000 BC someone in a cave somewhere probably said "Everything has Sucked all week and I'm pissed.") Maybe the problem with the Georgia crisis is that western liberals and conservs can't decide what their official positions should be. Should we tell Putin that we will go to war if he does not pull his army out of Georgia, or should we sit on the side and say that the Russians are just doing what Bush did in Iraq? All these sides were discussed tonight on Hannity and Colmes. Hurricane Fay hit Florida the other day and turned into a massive rain storm all across the state. Pt. St. Lucia is under water with about 6, 000 houses under water. Sounds like the flood in June in Cedar Rapids. but that was from winter snow water coming down the Cedar River. A passenger plane crashed the other day at the Madrid Spain airport and killed 153 people--many of them kids, it turned out. Mussharaf was driven from power in Pakistan, and the country has had a wave of suicide bombings, as has been happening in Afghanistan recently. All today the cable news people have been waiting for Obama to name his VP choice. It may be Biden (a guy I despise, but no one called me asking my opinion.) The Olympics were a mess last night, when the US men and women relay teams both dropped the baton. The US men and women beach volleyball teams won their games, and I found out from the web that the American guy Emmons fell apart in the skeet shooting by screwing up his last shot, as he did four years ago. I have not checked out the weightlifting results, and need to. A professor at the U of Iowa who was accused of 4 charges of sex harrasment has vanished from his home and took a rifle with him and made out his will. It is assumed he killed himself, but his body has not been found. This is really a cheerful blog entry, aint it? And all this is just a small account of what has happened violent in the last several days. A couple of big financial outfits in Des Moines are laying off about 200 people, but Microsoft is going to build a huge server setup on the far west side of town. This is interesting because a year or so ago some local lawyers brought a big antitrust case against Micrsoft, which turned into a shakedown against the company. Getting back to what it is I am Mad about this evening; I am mad at lawyers, liberals, intellectuals, agnostics, Putin, yuppies, Obama. That is enough for right now I suppose. This is going to be all for right now. I will get Happy if I get some sleep tonight, so this will be all for right now. You take care. Di di mau!
