random stuff ; )

i LOVE ron paul
i LOVE al gore

hillary… too polarizing.. she’ll never win which is why the bushies are pushing her
obama… nice smile.. good message.. not enough experience at this particular time
guiliani.. how is he the ‘front runner’?? ooooh…. maybe it’s because he doesn’t read, either.

it occurred to me the other day that maybe bush + friends are fucking everything up quite deliberately and strategically. perhaps this is all an actually well-executed grand plan to bankrupt, rape, pillage, plunder, over-extend and break everything he can get his hands on, including the constitution. the beginning of the end, perhaps?… something to think about, anyway.

i am trying to see how long i can go without turning the ac on. admittedly, this morning i thought i might cave today… but i can definitely say that i am going to make it at least until june 1st. i feel like kramer and the car salesman when they were driving the demo car on an empty tank.. i just wanna see how far i can go!!

things at work are ramping up for me… as everyone else has been sucked into the black hole of a project which is the SAP integration…. intranet, internet and extranet development are becoming all mine ; ) [insert evil laugh here]

hey.. i heard that TB guy’s father-in-law works at the CDC actually WITH the TB bacteria TB is infected with??!!?!? if i were TB guy… i’d be really scared on holidays and family visits.

the new world bank dude…: i have an overwhelming urge to push his glasses up his nose.

boeing/jeppesen.. on leasing planes to the cia knowing they were being used for torture, or at least transporting people against their will to places OF torture: boeing is saying that they are not responsible for what their customers use their planes for.. and yet we hold liable restaurants/bars for serving copious amounts of alcohol when injury or death is a result. hmmm…

the wrong stuff

npr interview with nasa administrator, michael griffen

i heard this interview this morning as i was doing my hair… the context of the interview was to provide nasa an opportunity to rebutt an interview that aired the previous morning with gregg easterbrook which was admittedly quite critical of nasa and, among other things, their apparent complete lack of interest in the issue of global warming. i think one of the quotes from the npr interview with mr easterbrook was something about ‘nasa scientists having given up their first amendment right to free speech.’ (scorching!) but then again… leave it to the leader to confirm even more emphatically that, at least on this issue, nasa has sold out science in favor of toeing the party line.

homework from therapy:

a: try to be an inspiration to tori
b: work on creativity
c: exercise spirituality.. try this ‘church‘
d: think about and visualize how i will be and what my life will be like when i am my best self.. and report back (not that easy….)

… she is sooo the right person at the right time for me ; )

conspiracy theory or reality??

greg palast is saying that he is in possession of the karl rove’s “missing” emails and that the real story here is not manipulation of the justice department merely for a political agenda.. but rather it’s the tip of the iceberg, the meat of which is the manipulation of past, current and future elections through various methods of lower income (Black and Hispanic) voter disenfranchisement.. ie., a ‘class war’.

maybe this explains the expressed attitude of the administration that the ‘american people’ to whom they are responsible are only those people who actually voted for them.
