GET THAT CORN OUTTA MY FACE!

Well its about fucking time. The American people have finally found their voice. Thousands of people turned out this weekend for anti war protests all over the country. its quite gratifying. I'm not even bitter about the fact it took 7 years of bigotry and hate. 7 years of our civil rights being violated. 7 years of pain and death, as we watched our brothers and sisters die needlessly in the desert as our environment crumbled at our feet. Well maybe a little bitter.

I cant contain my adulation about ex white press Secretary Ari Fleischer and his testimony today. Never mind the fact that the Bush/ Cheney regime is going down in flames (I cant wait until those fuckers are put on trial for war crimes). We knew this testimony was going to be dirty (in a delicious seedy way) when Ari demanded immunity before he testified. Here is to hoping his testimony contributes to Cheney's former chief of staff inevitable prison sentence wherein he will be gang raped repeatedly by large hairy black men.

Do you hate your boss? How about an ex lover? I found this delectable site today where you can send scathing anonymous letters for the low low price of 3 bucks. It says anonymity is guaranteed- but what do they give you if your privacy is breeched? Your 3 dollars back? Although the CEO of the company I work for is first on my list to receive the funny how shit rises to the top card, I'll be verifying that guarantee before it actually gets sent.


Lastly, Tool is touring stateside again, which will be followed by a DVD/ CD release of the live show. Say goodbye kids, this is surely Maynard's last hurrah.

Priorities?

Being 25 is extraordinarily stressful.

I feel the need to work with people right now. As in the last year. Not the typical charity stuff I USED to have time for, but a career change. Its just not moving fast enough, compounded by my indecisiveness. Behavioral health is such a vast field... its simply a matter of narrowing it down and finding where I fit. As always, this only a step. Up up and away.

And yet, there is the California pull. You would think one would grow out of this. I feel no shame or remorse in regards to my addiction to music. 10 years?

Now I have to go cancel a romantic weekend trip to Napa. Im sure he will understand. Really. THE SCREENING has been announced and shall not be missed.

Dee Dee Dee

Fun in Democrat land!

Thanks to my Maria for the heads up on John Edwards Internet news. Edwards website is fantastic full of scathing documentary about today's political catastrophe. I mean seriously guys, pay attention. Politics is better than television! Anyway, my favorite candidate even has blog that will now be added to my favorites on the list you probably ignore (stop it, there is some important shit over there).

If nothing else, please take the time to sign a very important petition which urges congress to stop being babies and pull the plug on Iraq. The only criminal here is the smirking chimp, who blatantly insists on killing innocent people without the support of the American people. It will only take a moment, and it will make your day, I promise.

One more thing- if you need to resize photos for whatever reason, my bro found this really cool site that doesnt require you to download anything. Pretty fucking sweet!

Dems will pwn teh primaries

FER SHUR.

Finally, the fucking fantastic John Edwards has announced he will be running for pres in '08. My liberal heart is filled with joy at the thought of a president who has a legitimate college education.

Okay, this is bigger than a degree.

Edwards is not afraid. He put his bid in early. His intentions are painfully clear. There can be no question about his potential domestic and foreign policy.

I'm still waiting for word from the Wesley camp. Oh, how I love politics.

Its that time of the month again!

Yay! And I still haven't figured out what I am going to about it. My estrogen rich ovaries continue to drop eggs into my pesky uterus. Perhaps one of the two readers of my blog would like to harvest this awful organ? I have no need of it and its in tip top shape.

Ah the looming presidential primaries. Such an exciting and important time. Truth be told, I'll vote for whatever democrat makes it through the primaries on top. Even it is the queen of "lets appeal to the moderates" Hillary Clinton. Republicans have one thing right- establish you're ideas, and stick to them. This fair lady is even loved by the neo-cons...

I would love to see Wesley Clark run this time. With John Edwards at his side they could navigate the sweeping change that must take place in this country. By the way naysayer, its not because Wes is dead sexy. He is a millitary genius and is a rogue scholar. What better person to guide us out a civil war WE created? Thats going to be tough.

Avast! People are trying to organize in a sensible manner to cure the ills of the planet and solve the problem of Global Warming. So far, so good. Its seems we have an agenda, and a clever little list (that made me cry for a good hour) to delineate what needs to be done. See the report on BBC world news United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Take it from there if you care. If not, go and drive that gas guzzling monstrosity while I enjoy my constitutional liberties. Whatever makes you happy.

Speeaking of happy! wooo hoooo! I shoiuldnt have taken that second pill. Fallling out of my chair and what not. Im going to finish off this gallon of H2O and hope you wont have to build a bridge over my ass in the morning.

I WANT MY TELEVISION BACK

In case you are living in an ignorant cave aka the Midwest, ALJAZEERA has launched a kick ass English news network. Its been in the works for quite some time, and I was obviously fired up about it. Being a victim of American television, spin, and one sided information has left me badly bruised and in desperate need of legitimate information. My only source for good info on the tube is BBC (of course) and Mosaic on the link channel. Yummy. In Aljazeera's case, the bias will be a refreshing slap in the face. Wake up America, people are suffering while you are blissfully oblivious.

But, of course, Americans don't get to watch Aljazeera. There aren't any networks or cable providers, other than a french satellite service that nobody gives a shit about that have the guts to carry it. Fuck the religious right and their insistence that we stay ignorant and uninformed. Yeah that's your personal decision to suspend all reason and rationality in order to pursue a blind faith in you re country. How UN- American. Go fuck your sister and leave my civil rights alone.

Point- I need help. Not the psychological kind, but I want answers and ACTION. Please please please if you know of any organizations that are backing Aljazeera in the states send me a message or leave a comment. If you have any tid bits of info in regards to WHY it isn't available, please drop a line.

Unexpected Breathtaking Happiness

Three words you probably never thought you would hear coming from me. There it is regardless, every letter of it true and heartfelt.

The dems have claimed the house and senate, restoring a long forgotten checks and balances of the 3 branches of government. Namely, the executive branch, which will no longer have the capacity to assault the American people signing away our lives in the middle of the night. Yay! The world community joins us in celebration, as we can once again dare to hope. Hope... what a strange and fascinating emotion. Its so refreshing. For so long I have been filled with sorrow, hate, and hopelessness as the Republicans ran a rampant psychotic agenda to drive us all into the ground. I'm not alone in this optimism. Democrats will find their strength and challenge the atrocities that have taken place in the last decade. We are prepared to face the devastation, because now we know it can be repaired.

My reaction to the overwhelming good news post election day were to first run to the restroom and cry joyously, then spread the excitement to everyone around me. This was before Donald Ayatollah Rumsfeld resigned! Imagine my glee when checking on the very tight race for senate control only to fin the smirking chimp gasping for air through stutters and excuses.

It was quite unexpected for most of us, but most likely planned by the Bush cabinet. Its a strong game plan- obviously Rummy will be seen as the orchestrator of the devastation in Iraq. Just what the Repubs need- a scapegoat. He made it easy with the torturing with no conscience bit. He went so far as to excuse the atrocities at Abu Ghraib and even defended water boarding as a 'humane' interrogation technique. He should have been charged with crimes against humanity, while his boss was impeached and charged for the same crimes. I'll be patient, because George's day will come. Just as Rummy's did.

There is plenty of time to speak of voting fraud, the complexities of pulling out of Iraq, the fact we still have a retarded movie star as a governor, and the tragic failure of proposition 87. Right now, this moment, we rejoice and make plans for the future no longer afraid of a fascist state.

What a fucking relief.
