Nonspecific Thoughts

Twenty-four hour news channels remind me of high school gossips. It's funny, and sad, mostly sad.

I wonder who is going to run for President in 2008. I'm only going Republican if it's John McCain. He's the only public figure in the Republican Party who really seems like a traditional Republican rather than a religious zealot.

The $800 katana I ordered five months...

I'm envious! That sounds like so much fun.

I used to play tennis, too. I miss it.

I want to see Madagascar.

I wanted to volunteer at the zoo before, and still do, but I never have the time. I can't wait to see the new dolphin adventure. I also want to participate in the one on one experience, once they have it, come September (if I'm still living here and if I can afford it).

The news can be sad. I hate how everyone seems to focus on all the celebrity bullshit, like that's actually news. Like I give a shit about who was seen with whom, who's fucking whom, who's having whose baby...blah, blah, blah. It's all mindless drivel, yet the American public eats it up like it's Ben and Jerry's. I also think it's sad that the news so often forgets to focus on the positve side of humanity. It's all death and destruction, and so many people forget that there is beauty in the world because of all the negativity. I'm saddened and pissed off at the same time, so I mostly just watch the weather channel, because I feel like that's all I need to know on the news front most of the time...

I really want to see Madagascar. It looks like such a fun movie.

You should post a pic of your katana. Hand weapons rock. biggrin

Well, take care, doll. *hugs*

**Something for Memorial Day**

Once upon a time people cared about proper grammar and eloquence coming from their nation's leader. You should know what this is, if you don't, then find out and remember.

Fellow-Countrymen:

AT this second appearing to take the oath of the Presidential office there is less occasion for an extended address than there was at the first. Then a statement somewhat...

The Lost season finale was probably the best two hours of television I've seen in a looong time. In other news, my little sister's high school graduation is tomorrow. It's not as weird as I thought it'd be. We've gotten along better recently, sadly I think it has mostly to do with the fact that we both look fairly "Arab"-I don't like using that term,...

People are too sure of themselves and their opinions. Sometimes I feel very childlike because I still allow myself to make up fantasies about life or rather allow myself to believe there's still wonder in the universe that doesn't need explaining or classification or whatever system people impose on nature in order to feel safer. Other times I feel like I've found the key to...
