What happened last week?

Someone blew up the UN building in Iraq.
Al-Quaida is massing in Iraq.
Israel attacked Lebanon.
Blackouts in New York City
The Internet Spam meter is above 50%
Afghanistan is almost 100% Anti-USA now
People's computers are spontaneously rebooting alll over the world

But the wierdest thing is that Zsa Zsa Hussein is making her debut in Tikrit. Folks, this smells of desperation:

It's not all bad though.

I went to the library and got a free Green Velvet CD. Maybe there is hope after all.

I have to say I don't agree with these photo shopped pictures of Saddam showing up. I think by posting these pictures over in Iraq, it's only going to make things worse. They already hate us by being there, why shove it in their face?

That is Bullshit. And it smells. I don't want the troops to die. But I'm not too sure anymore I want them to think. Can't they bring in that hot chick from No Doubt to boost morale? I mean she is much better looking than Bob Hope. Especially lately, since he is dead and all that.

I don't know whether to laugh or be disgusted. Zsa Zsa Saddam? I'm doing a double take. It's not April Fool's Day, so...you're serious about this right Sloth? Well of course it will only make them hate us more, if they don't hate us completely already. Still I can't believe it...and did they really mention Billy Idol?? No, surely this is a headline out of the Onion, not CNN.

Anyone seen the footage of Marilyn Monroe in front of U.S. Troops? That was some of the best footage I ever saw of her. No better morale booster than that...

No...I looked at the picture again, but I just can't believe it. Please god let this not be true. Please. It's impossible. They're banning gay marriage at home and yet...I do not understand. Please help me. Zsa Zsa Hussein?

More proof of impending doom (as if we needed any)

"For everyone who thought the 'blackout of 2003' was bad, how about this, according to an article at SecurityFocus, and another article at The Register, 'The Slammer worm penetrated a private computer network at Ohio's Davis-Besse nuclear power plant in January and disabled a safety monitoring system for nearly five hours.'"

If nuclear power plants are running nuclear power plants on Windows 2000 without adequate firewalls then I am scared to be without a fucking radiation suit!

My God I have a home office and we have never been hit by any worms. What are these people...

STOOPIT?

My roomate was watching the news, and I observed a local man on the television explain why he likes Bush: "I just like the things he's done. I think he's a very moral person and I appreciate that."

Moral? Ha....ha...haha...hahahahahahahahHA! Moral!! Hey, I hear Stevie Wonder's white, too, but you know...it's really enough to send one into hysterics isn't it? Moral?

They're having a demonstration tomorrow at noon near the waterfront...I'm thinking of going...but he's already left town hasn't he?

I'm so tired. I've had next to no proper sleep at all this week, just couldn't seem to fall asleep no matter how hard I tried, and when I finally did sleep, I had nightmares two nights in a row - one nightmare would be very atypical for me, but two is unheard of. I was pretty skeptical about feeling the closeness of Mars before, but now I'm certain I've been feeling it this week. It's in my sign after all, and what the horoscopes have been saying has actually come true. I've come to terms with some things in my life I NEVER ever thought I'd come to terms with. The planets are fucking wild.

BTW, Sloth, did you know the Dandy Warhols are playing Bumbershoot next Saturday night? I almost bought a ticket but I've just spent a buttload of money on music and then sold a large amount of CD's in order to alleviate my guilt at the amount of money I spent. I'm determined to have a good amount of money saved by the time school starts.

Oh no! Not Cher! I had a roomate once who was plumb crazy over Cher...didn't she dye her hair blonde at some point? Ugh...I don't mind her as an actress but her voice gets on my nerves...
