dilletantism, romanticism, charlatanism
Several years ago a friend of mine was dating this cute li’l Jehovah’s Witness girl.
This song came on the radio one day, and he said it’s her favorite song.
I said, “Of course it is.”
It took him a minute, but he got it. You get it too.
Heaven Is a Place on Earth
It’s about this time every summer that I’m done. I totally retreat indoors with the following mantra:
KILL ALL THE MOSQUITOES!
What can I say? They love me. I must be terribly tasty to them. And sensitive. Damned bites take two weeks to go away... if they don’t scar.
Today, I caught a glimpse of a headline... warning that Zika is now in the area. Thank you, media, for that. Is fear the only thing left to sell, now that the social justice warriors have won their war on sex?
Sadly, I know the answer to that...
What all of these “enlightened” souls don’t seem to get is that people are the plague on this world. If you look back at history—at all—all people have ever done is destroy this planet we live on.
Why shouldn’t the world fight back? Going beyond weather patterns, which are the planet’s best line of defense, why wouldn’t the world come up with such biological delights as plague, pneumonia, smallpox, polio, AIDS, bird flu, brain-eating amoeba, and Zika?
People are stubborn though. In the past, we’ve found many cures for these problems... but for how much longer? Curing disease doesn’t make real money. Treating disease does. But treating disease may be all those li’l germs need to maintain their foothold.
Plus, with no cure, the media can continue to sell the fear... more real money.
We should have killed all the mosquitoes. Now, maybe they’ll kill all of us.
You're No Good
birthday, to my favourite of the girls who got away.
Had I had my shit together, we would have truly had something special. I’m just grateful to have had you in my life... to know that someone like you exists.
Happy birthday, baby.
If I Could Turn Back Time
Finally tried the “grade school” special today at a local eatery.
I still don’t get it.
Private Eyes
You know your local government is broke when they’re charging you fees to take your tax money.
Costs me five dollars to order a ten dollar title in this state, so fifteen total. Costs me three dollars to pay my eighty dollars in taxes.
So, I’m paying fees just for the privilege of giving them my money... which I'll be fined (with more fees) if I do not.
Will there ever be competence in government?
