10 soldiers die in the last two days, 27 wounded, and all I hear about is how Bush gains a bunch of latino votes? Sad that this whole thing goes on and it's already forgotten by the press. You know what mainstream news is?
Brittany Spears marriage/anullment
Pete Rose trying to get into the baseball hall of fame
and some guy in Washingtion who got his apartment covered in tin foil...
They've really got a hold on things, on us, or do they?

I guess the honeymoon for the capture of Saddam Hussein is over.
Who would marry Brittny Spears, even for one day? She hasn't been good looking since she was 16.
Pete Rose was one of the best and almost all sports people I know love to gamble. The man isn;t too bright... so let's just forgive and forget, right?
Let's cover GW in barbecue sauce and tin foil and feed him to starving people in Baltimore who would have been a better use for the 87 billion dollars we are wasting in Iraq.

Yeah, frighteningly enough, I HAVE noticed (although I'm obviously not supposed to) that the local paper here, after having the death of U.S. soldiers in Iraq on the front page for several months, suddenly stopped doing that as soon as Saddam was captured.
I actually had a nightmare last night. Scarier than any I've ever had and I've said before here I don't have them often. It started out innocently enough, a man was trying to warn me and a few others huddled in an empty house, but he was doing it in a kind of coded, innuendo language, and then we all scattered to different rooms of the building, and I was alone in my empty room, no furniture, nothing. Someone started knocking very loudly on the outside wall, and I was confused and started to go get the leader to tell him about it, since I didn't know what it meant, but eventually I realized what the leader had been trying to tell us in code, and that the people knocking on the wall wanted to kill us, and the wall was fairly near my particular room. That's honestly the first taste I've ever had of what it might feel like to be in a war zone situation. I thought back to that guy I met on the bus who had come back from Iraq, and I was a little more understanding of what had gone wrong with his brain.
I also want to say I hadn't been on any drugs or alcohol last night at all, and hadn't had a bad day or been sick or anything like that. I just don't get it.
