Last day of spring
Just the kind of day requested. Perfect in every way, except for the bit about our governor, Christine Gregoire, expressing her worries over North Korea maybe aiming a big old missile our way. She was talking about the big cut in Homeland Security funding - I hate writing that title, it sounds so damned much like Orwell - that Seattle took this year. Governor Gregoire was telling us Seattle folks to be vigilant with our personal security, to report anything suspicious.
Oh what the bloody hell, woman?!! What good will that do if a big old bomb comes our way from North Korea? Stop, drop, and roll under our school desks, shall we? Will that help us as we all vaporize? Bush & Co. could give a flying fuck if Seattle goes up in smoke. They'll aim for a nice PR bounce like they got from the 9/11 attack on NYC. Of course if North Korea don't aim so good and it hits Alaska, Bush&Co. will lose some supporters and that little bit of oil they've been jonesin' for...and don't get too comfy, San Fran or LA, they could hit you, too, ya know.
Frankly, I don't believe anything about this North Korea threat. How can you possibly believe anything Condi or W. or which ever GOP barbarian tells us this fear-mongering drivel? It's propaganda. More and more of their spew. I'm about ready to haul out the biggest monkey wrench I can find and head out for very specific parts...
Meanwhile, off to our nearest Drinking Liberally, to see what's on for this evening.

WMD? North Korea? Say it isn't so! I thought they are clustered around the fuckers in iraq?
Really, there's no cheating death, now is there. Once you get over your fear of that, terrorists have no hold on you whatsoever - no matter how large or small. What is more fearsome, is the vigor with which the W, Rove and Co goes after our liberties, that were paid for in blood by many Americans.
The missile may come our way, but you better believe I will be out and about enjoying the day just before it hits. I most certainly won't be narkin' on my neighbors.
Stop, drop, and roll under our school desks, shall we? I would try to make it out to the hallway to crouch against the wall.
When the news mysteriously begins to focus on North Korean nukes and home-grown terrorists (as in tonight's news in Florida), I wince and wonder what W and his thugs are planning next...which rights will they yank off the plate, blaming "post 911 imperatives" but offering comfort that they would NEVER usurp our rights if not ABSOLUTELY necessary.
