There are just times that I must write, but I can't, either because I'm in pain or because getting to the computer is just to much of a hassel. Hopefully that will change when I buy my birthday present to me, my brandnew laptop. (I was thinking a Dell, but then reading Consumer Reports I've decided to lean more towards an IBM. I'd go Apple, especially because they are challenging the Beatles {BOO YAAA!} but those babies are spendy.) So hopefully in the next few months/weeks my blogging will get more regular.
These are some of the things I've been thinking about:
1. FIFA's stupidity, re: censuring the Israeli's for bombing an empty soccer field (No injuries) and NOT censuring the Palestinian's bombing of an UNempty soccer field (WITH injuries). WTH? So much for not being political. It's a good thing, they really could have embarrased Pinochet, the Taliban and Uday Hussien had they chosen to do anything political. Phew!
2. The link between freedom, logic, liberty and political clarity.
3. The French and their silly lifetime contracts. Their 23% unemployment rate, the general sorry state of their ecomony, everything.
4. Defining Censorship and Banning. They aren't what Hollywood thinks they are.
5. Bad Drivers - How they make me lose my religion. (Okay, not really, but it's still their fault.)
6. Iraq: the casualties, ours and theirs and how it compares to other wars. (2300 + after 3 years in IRAQ, 6000 on Day 1 of the invasion of Okinawa during WWII)
7. The crappiness of network news. I will blog on this, I will have examples. Like a reporter the other day saying "The tornado utterly destroyed the church, you can see hymnals, boards, pews, etc., lying all around." No, go back to the Tsunami of December 2004 and look again at the before and after pictures of Banda Aceh, that is UTTER destruction. That was a slate wiper. There were things left after the tornado, like hymnals. It might be nitpicky, but I don't think so.
So, hopefully, I'll be back to expand on this.
Oh, and did anyone else notice that we (The USA) are at a 4.7% unemployment rate? Nice, very nice.
