I'm extrememly angry at the whole ball of wax.
Burma. China. Tornadoes. Droughts. Starvation. Floods. Starvation. Medical bills. Iraq debacle. Ribbon magnets. Giving up golf. Politics. Rising food costs. Fears of Iran. Fears of a draft. The environmental damage. Bigotry. Narrowmindeness. Hatred and Fear.

JCOATH, on and on and on and on and on. (jesus christ on a trailer hitch)

I've been saying, for yrs, that it is not bad enough yet for people to want to change. Enough people must suffer enough for others to actually change, to demand change, to change. We have peaked, in so many ways. We MUST pull together, help each other, work together, or it will all dissolve into chaos again.

I'm tired. Off to read a book. Good night all.

3. The middle class has to feel it. REALLY feel it.

More people in bankruptcy, more out of their homes. Even higher gas prices. A draft.

2004 shouldn't have been even close enough to steal. Not even. We aren't there yet.

A draft would probably change all that in a day.

5. most people are selfish and will not work for change until something directly affects their bottom $
or their family

as long as whatever the problem of the day, week, year, decade affects someone else most are not willing to take the time and energy to set things right

as long as this admin continues to lie about how bad things really are and covers up the dismal, devastating direction this world is headed people will not work for change or change their habits

either everyone works at saving this planet or there will be nothing left for our kids and their kids

the velocity (rate of change) is increasing almost too fast for us to get back on course....

6. I hear ya.
It seems like the whole damned world is going to hell in hand basket, and fast. And I don't have much faith in our willingness to pull together and fix it.

Some days I feel like it's not even worth getting out of bed.

8. That's diversity and evolution for you
They're both quite fickle.
