stupid poem

roses are red
violets are blue
i did a lot of work today
and the day before, too

….. sucks no one notices.

on replacing fema with some other gov’t agency…….

remember the pulp fiction line:
“A lotta the same shit we got here, they got there, but there they’re a little different.”

i think changing the name of something that’s admittedly broken and likely just a symptom of a much larger problem (over-sized red-tapped to death out-of-touch grossly ethically compromised beaurocratic gov’t) is a waste of money to just slap a new name on it and print the letterhead.

Psst. Wanna save the world? The latest front in the Pentagon’s struggle against terrorism is . . . a writing competition. “The Army absolutely needs to understand more about counterinsurgency,” began the published request for submissions to the “Countering Insurgency” contest. “Nothing less than the future of the civilized world might depend on it.” Col. Bill Darley, editor in chief of Military Review-which will publish the winning submissions-says that entries for the contest have been “fresh and innovative.” The first-place winner gets $1,000. Sorry, entries were due by April 1.
