Coffee Blogging

Excuse me while I clean up all the coffee

That just came out my nose... because of this.


Here we are in the glamorous 21st century...

Welcome to the Bush economy. Is this what we have to look forward to?


Yes, more Joe... (is it Joeicide?)

From This Modern World
When WILL it end? Where? CT!


Answering the questions of a previous post...

That WAS Ali G singing the notorious rendition of the Natl. anthem at the rodeo...


Terror, terror, & more terror...

I just read this article today - The UK Terror Plot: What's Really Going On? I find it fascinating that once again we've been given the big "Ooga Booga" and are supposed to run squealing, back into the arms of the GOP... our brave protectors! Only, wait, just a minute, hold on... It seems that many airports are taking any "unsealed" items - toothpaste, toiletries, etc. and donating them to the needy. I don't mind that. Throwing stuff away is senseless. But wait! This is the same stuff that's SO DANGEROUS you don't DARE take on a plane! So... you can take the same possibly dangerous items (unopened, mind you) and give them to the needy??
Then I saw a photo of the "repository" where travelers are instructed to dump all open beverages, etc. It's just a large trash bin!! Now, mind you, I performed miserably in chemistry all the way through school, well, until college anyway. Yet, even I would know that if you are REALLY suspicious that some liquid thing could be dangerous, the LAST thing you would do is have everyone dump the contents in the same container! Passenger 1 has a coffee cup full of bleach. Here comes passenger 2 with a coffee cup full of ammonia. Presto! EVACUATE THE AIRPORT! TERRORIST ATTACK!! Well, duh. Anyone with ANY common sense is going to see through this (yet another) convenient event for the Bushco regime. Now here's the rub: the "plot" consists of an interrogat-ee in Pakistan - let's not use the 'torture' word here - but, needless to say, torture victims are much more likely to say what is wanted to be heard than the truth. And the rest of the "plotters" were all under surveillance in the U.K. because of the color of their skin more than anything else.
How many more of these "terror alerts" can be pulled out of the hat until every American finally figures out how the magic trick is done, and that we've seen it all before?
