1. Hate to be a bringer of bad news

But there's gonna be a lot more pictures of that. It's just going to be coming out of Middle East instead in 2005.

3. but they don't show the Middle East children

they simply do not exist in the minds of our corporate media

2. four more days of who knows what. I know what you mean. Is

there a sadder image this year than that? All those people floating in the water and can't get out. It makes me sick and ashamed. What the hell is going to happen to this world?

[Skittles]

5. all the money spent on war in this world

and no warning for those poor people and their children; it is nothing less than OBSCENE.

4. I was at a company dinner the other night

We have a small branch here so it was only 3 of us and our significant others. It was the day that the mess hall massacre happened and this cold front had blew through with snow and ice.. it was a surreal day. In anycase, at dinner I mentioned how sorry I was for those families. I mean, Im in Texas.. real soldier supporters. One of the women was like, uh.. dont talk about that, its bad enough that it happened.

We need to see these things or else it is so easy to be apathetic.

6. I know all about Texas, been here almost 30 years

ignorance is bliss is the rule of law in these parts
