I know I’ve sworn off interest in national politics and the presidential election, but I must admit that now it’s getting kind of interesting. It took me a while to finally watch the whole Barack Obama speech at the DNC, but dammit, I was inspired. He really does have a message of hope that I’ve [...]

So far I’ve refused to fall into the trap of Olympic jingoism, but this time I think those godless communists have gone too far. This is just one human rights abuse too many. It seems they found the cherubic voice they needed to sing their national anthem, but the angel’s face didn’t quite meet comintern [...]

This whole thing going on in Georgia is being completely misfed to the press by the government. Most of what I’ve read from any mainstream American press goes along with Bush’s line of bullshit delivered a couple days ago. He said “Such an action is unacceptable in the 21st century.” Ummm, George, you did something [...]

I was just reading a Rollingstone.Com article about John Mellencamp’s new album, which I can’t wait to get, about the bleak times in America. I’ve gone back and forth about Mellencamp, but I think I’m going to like this CD. Anyway, one of the comments was a rewrite of the classic Mellencamp song Pink Houses, [...]

It’s been a long, long time since I changed the bumper stickers on the Ass of the Tiger. Many of the stickers have faded, and over the past few months I’ve collected bumper stickers but have been too lazy to put them on. Last night, as I was ruminating, the Queen of My Universe suggested [...]

The Queen of my Universe was pondering the other day why the EU so desparately wanted Karadzic and why they’re making such a big deal of it. I couldn’t think of any reason. It’s not like he’s the worst person the West has ever done business with, and George Bush is responsible for a lot [...]

My ex-brother-in-law Dave did sarcasm great. When the family was in an argument he’d interject at something slightly lower than a yell, “the important thing is that we assign blame….. not SOLVE the problem. “ And that’s what both sides of the aisle are doing with the collapse of the banking system and peak oil.
