Swine Flu

Anyone else out there concerned about a little pandemic affectionately referred to as the swine flu?  Anything with the word swine in it can't be good.  I don't know about you guys, but I am a little concerned about the judgement of the lady that is in charge of the homeland security bureau.  Wasn't that designed to protect people?  Naw, we should wait till everyone here has it and then close the borders.

The Right to Free Speech....

Okay, let me be the first to say that I hate beauty pagaents.  I think they are completely ridiculous, but I know some people who truly enjoy them and see them as entertaining and even educational.  Now, this is not a blog to bash beauty pagaents.  I just have to say that this whole deal with Miss California and her completely honest answer to Perez-Hilton's question has gotten me worked up.  What a set-up.  What kind of question is that to ask a contestant?  And why would you not want to hear the honest answer?  The poor girl answered in a politically correct way and then added her opinion.  In pre-Obama days, it used to be okay to give your opinion after making a statement.  Now however, not so much.  You are welcome to your opinion as long as it doesn't reflect that of any right wing terrorist extremist view point.  In other words, you are entitled to your opinion as long as it is the left wing (see socialist) liberalist opinion.  Otherwise, keep your mouth shut or we will penalize you.  Welcome to the Obama police state!  

Been Too Long...

I'm baaaaaack!

Later...

Every few months I go through this phase of time where I stay up until all hours of the night.

For the past few nights, I have gone to bed anywhere from 2:30 to 4 or so.

I need to go to bed earlier, but some things I like....

right now I am listening.  Can you hear it?  That's right it is silence punctuated by more silence.  I love that.

I like to sometimes just sit and reflect, this is the only time that I really get to do that, but tonight I am too tired to think about too much ( and thus this completely ridiculous post).  

Anyway, going to bed now...it's almost 2.  Early.
