Wandering the web, and look what I found.

I lost my son to a war I oppose. We were both doing our duty. The idea that saying anything against the war is a crime against the troops, well that’s just a tactic our government uses to get us to shut the fuck up. This is a beautifully written piece. And it’s illuminating.

And I won’t shut up anymore.

Speaking of war.. I found this via Digg. I am amazed by the moronic comments made by the talking heads we call newscasters. She needs to go back to that morning show she had and let the real newsmen and newswomen take the news back from ignorance and entertainment. Gah!

Another Digg find. …but I am embarrassed to say that I know a lot less than I should. And I’m headed to grad school! For shame!

Are you aggressive? Yes? then you shall get laid!

What happened on the day you were born?

    Holy hell. I like to believe that I have a pretty good command of the English language, but I am quite sure I have never seen some of the words on that list. Although there are some, like tautology, that I look up ALL THE TIME because I am part idiot and can’t ever remember what the word means. (I looked it up last night and have already forgot)

    Oh I share my bday with Caligula and Van Morrison. Oh yeah, two gods…well one in his own mind and the other in mine.

    There were about 5-6 words I was iffy on so that made me feel… less than a good English student!

    My kid sister, is 22 and USMC. This month, she goes to Iraq. It was her choice to enlist, her duty to go. It is mine to bitch, scream, vote and educate. If we never spoke out…we’d still be drinking tea at high noon and probably have VERY unfortunate teeth.
