That NIN show must be hittin' pretty hard!
Over on my other blog, art is the new religion, I just posted a bit about semantics, and how two of my long-held assumptions have recently been proven wrong. Topics include whiskey and ponies.
I need to ask y'all a question though. (Quoting from my other post):
What do you call the disgusting and desperate concoction you and/or your high school college classmates made from any stealthily-procured liquor (Everclear, for instance), combined with various amounts of fruit-flavored beverages and/or soda?
This morning my friends referred to this as "jungle juice", a term which I've never heard before. I always heard it, back in the day, in Texas, called "trashcan punch". Have we stumbled upon a new colloquialism?
No idea how it tasted, it wasn't mine.
It is hard to see him hooked up to all of this.
It doesn't do the one handed out the car window on Devil's Slide while driving shot that well. I can't believe they didn't design for that.
I got news this morning.
The Vasospams I was talking about later are probably in full swing now. He
had a terrible night according to my mother. He is no longer responsive and
so they are taking him for some scans and they are going to try and help him
out as best as they can.
My mother is freaking out, however I calmly reminded her that this is what
was expected. They told us this would happen. So I calmed her down... we
cannot panic and worry until there is really something to worry about. At
least that is what I told her to keep her calm....
Truth be told...
I am scared shitless.
John,
We are abundantly aware that you were a war hero. I think you have told us this enough. Please don't continue to remind us. While I am truly impressed that you endured so much all of those years ago, I just don't see how it qualifies you to be our national leader. In fact, there is the possibility that you snapped and are no longer mentally capable of performing the strenuous job that could lie ahead of you.
Thru the corruption of your own party and an inept predecessor leading us for much of the last 8 years, there is a lot of work to do and it is going to be hard. Between your age and your war trauma, I don't know that you are fit to run this country. We need someone that can be a soft and cunning diplomat. You come across as a chest thumping agitator that could launch the last great war.
You see, I had a neighbor that was an ex-POW like yourself. To the naked eye, he seemed to be your run of the mill blue collar worker. The problem was that every time a loud noise startled him, he would come flying out of his house with gun in hand. He even shot at all of us kids on the 4th of July because he had flashbacks as we were shooting fireworks in the street.
I just don't want to see the type of flashback that you could have in a stressful situation. I fear for this country if you are elected. Hell, I fear for it if Obama is elected too but in a more subtle way. Obama will just coninue our ride down the road to serfdom, you have the potential to get us all nuked. When it comes down to it, you down right scare me.
