Weapons of Mass Destruction
500 WMD.
Take that Moveon.org!
Take that Michael Moore!
Take that KOS and the DU -
and shove those WMD where the sun don't shine - in your brains!
And at least some of my cotillian friends agree!

Where is the outrage?
Where are the leaders of the Muslim World? Why are they not condemning the torture and murder of American Soldiers?
Where are the leaders of Europe? Why are they not condemning the torture and murder of American Soldiers?
They are all still accussing America of 'torturing' terrorists by holding them prisoner in Guantanamo Bay.
Let's see, we "embarrass" terrorists when questioning them.
The terrorists just cut off body parts of our soldiers and kill them and booby trap bodies.
So . . . the leaders of the world don't say a thing about al Quaida being barbaric, committing torture, ignoring the Geneva Convention. But they are all over the US and want us to bow to the Islamofascists so as not to hurt their feelings..
I say fuck them all.
I want us to do whatever it takes to destroy the Islamofascist thugs in Iraq. We need to stop worrying about the damned collateral damage and just fight them all.
I am pissed.

Shouldn't this be considered treason?
Sheehan Supports U.S. Deserters in CanadaSourceBy CAROLYN THOMPSON
The Associated Press
Saturday, June 17, 2006; 9:44 PMFORT ERIE, Ontario -- A group of American military deserters publicly embraced their new lives in Canada on Saturday with the support of "peace mom" Cindy Sheehan, who said she wished the son she lost in Iraq was among them.
"I begged him not to go to Iraq," the anti-war activist said through tears at a rally in support of the former soldiers, who wore black T-shirts emblazoned with "AWOL." "And I wish he was standing up here with these people because he didn't want to go."

This is a test
This is a test to see how long it takes for Debbie Schlussel to send me yet another threat via email.
My hope is that she has the same IP address that she did when I banned her from my site and she can't get here.
If she can get her, I'll be able to capture her current IP and ban that one, too.

ack!
I don't *ever* want to hear about the "violent" American Society after reading this:
Two football fans have been shot dead in Thailand for cheering too loudly during the World Cup.sourceThe pair were watching Italy's 2-0 win over Ghana on Monday at a restaurant at the Thai beach resort town of Pattaya.
They roared when Italy scored their first goal and a man at a nearby table asked them to quieten down.
A heated argument followed and the man pulled out a handgun and shot the football fans at point blank range.

One more thing
I just love the current crop of Tractor Supply commercials. They really crack me up. Click here and pick the commercial you want to watch.
The timing is great.

Beware the Ides of June!
It's June 15th. I have no idea if the Ides of June have ever resulted in backstabbing, but just watch out.
Actually, I am just hiding from the world right now. Don't feel like doing anything after or before work. Work is kind of getting me down. Every so often, I get in a work funk. It takes me a few months to start liking it again. I'm just really tired of people expecting me to be available 24x7 when I'm putting in 50 to 60 hour work weeks to begin with.
So I'm grumpy, and beware the ides of June!

Alberto
I'm in Florida this week, about 35 miles East of Tampa. Big storm -Alberto.
I didn't sleep worth diddly last night! The stupid air conditioner vibrates like crazy when the condenser switches on and makes a terrible noise! around 3 am I finally figured out that pushing a chair against it kept it from vibrating.
At the moment, the weather is not bad. However, the tv news is crazy. They are actually showing pictures of grass that is bending over in the wind - grass - because no trees are bending yet.
It's not going to be a hurricane, but a tropical storm.
I need some coffee.

Still remodeling
Okay, so the kitchen floor, walls, crown molding, baseboards and quarter round have been replaced. I bought a pot rack to hang on the wall, and John felt that the black wrought iron would be too dark, so I spray painted it navy blue, and then I stenciled some designs and dry brushed it. It looks very unique now - very folk arty, and as soon as John hangs it on the wall, I'll take a picture.
Anyway, we were both in the kitchen this morning, and John had finished painting a small curio box for me and hung it up. He suggested that perhaps we should paint more of the kitchen red (parts of the cabinets). I had to laugh, because I had been thinking that would unify everything a lot more, so I guess I'll go to Home Depot and get another gallon of Cherry Cobler Red and mask off the molding and other parts we don't want to paint, and this time I'll use a *dark* base coat in hopes that I won't have to put coats on it.
I have been really focused on work and on the house, so I have not really been blogging much at all. I have been IM'ing and emailing, but that's about it.
So, Tregonese - please send me the link to that quiz you mentioned. And yes, I'm not quite normal, but who it?!
Okay, back to work now.

Heh
| You Are Oscar the Grouch |
 You are usually feeling: Unhappy. Unless it's rainy outside, and even then you know the foul weather won't last. You are famous for: Being mean yet loveable. And you hate the loveable part. How you life your life: As a slob. But it's not repelling as many people as you'd like! |
