Notes From The Uninformed...

-Yep so another Summer begins to grow smaller in the rear view and what's that right in front of us? Ah yes, another fun filled, alcohol lubricated, spleen rupturing football season. My favorite time of the year. Like Christmas. Only without Christmas.

-So it's hurricane season which can only mean one thing. Random tool bags from the weather channel will dress up in goretex, stand out in driving rain storms and tell everyone how dangerous it all is. I actually watched as some inbred bunny stood out in the surf as the surge rolled in and knocked her on her ass. Funniest thing was all the effort she put into saving her microphone. What was it going to come out of her paycheck or something? And the hype. OMG. There's this one guy standing at some street corner in some place nobody's ever heard of and he's talking about all the standing water and there's this puddle behind him. Meanwhile Vermont is going through a flood of Biblical proportion and all they call all talk about is the standing water (puddles) in Slapdick NJ.

-You know, Michelle Bachman, as easy as she is on the eyes she sure is skeery.

-Speaking of the media, anybody wonder why we never hear anything about what's going on at Fukushima? It sure ain't because the problems all better now is it. This is truly a sad, sad song. Radiation readings in Tokyo that on occasion exceed those found in the exclusion zone of Chernobyl. You know those pretty azaleas they have growing all over along the streets there? They're dying. Along with all other manner of flora. Fissures in the earth spewing cesium. And still she glows. You know, for all the ham handedness of the Soviet response to the Chernobyl disaster at least they put the friggin thing out. And so now we have a fair percentage of the western peninsula of Japan rendered uninhabitable for man & beast for oh i don't know say 10,000 years or so. Damn shame.

-2012 is just around the corner. Joy. This has the makings of a real barn burner folks. Romney, Bachman, Newt, and what's the guy from Texas? The one that decided to run because God told him to do it. Oh wait, that was Newt. No wait I'm pretty sure it was Michelle. Well you do have Ron Paul although he kind of comes across like Ross Perot without the personality. So what's the over & under on number of days before the most candidate like non-candidate Sarah Palin enters the fray? All for the chance to take the job from the current occupant that looks like he's aged 30 years since taking office. Long live the Republic.

-My plumeria bush is about to bloom. I think. Hopefully. There's always hope.

-My wife just asked me what I had written about her. I told her not a word. I don't know how she puts up with me. Probably my ongoing witty and insightful commentary on the events of the day.

-Happy Birthday Patsy.









So...

what did I miss?
