Jacks Told Interrogators She Expected Girls' Resurrection


I'm no shrink, but I think it's pretty clear the woman was completely bat-shit crazy... I don't even know why they're going through this nonsense. I remember going on a field trip with O around the time that it happened, and mentioned to a couple of mothers that if there was ever a case of inocent by reason of insanity, this was it... they looked at me like I'd torn off my son's arm and offered it as an snack.

WTF is wrong with people?

It's sort of amazing, the trasition of my friends list. back in the day, there'd be 20-30 posts from you people a day... now a good day has maybe four. Now granted I haven't been active, and I haven't been replacing people who fade out (as I myself am fading out due to time constraints of fatherhood), but I'm just curious how many of you are gone, or just started using FB because you cold easier keep in touch with people you actually know (as I have to some extent)?

For the record, I do not think the lovely and talented marieroumania is a moron, or in any way inept, stupid or incompetent... Quite the contrary, actually, please make a note of it.

I'm sorry, but media coverage of MJ's death is so !@#$ing overblown.

Inspired by the lovely and talented marieroumania's theories on Iran, I'm convinced that MJ was at the nexus of a plot by the GOP to take the heat off for Sanford's dalliances. I mean the dude was only fifty, and skinny and he dies of a HEART ATTACK?! I mean how fishy is that? As for his motive, the dude always wanted to be white, I'm guessing the GOP offered him a piece of legislation when they return to power to 'make' him finally be a honky... If it wasn't that, then he was in league with Obama (you know how all those people of color stick together), to distract the media while he cracks some skulls on the energy bill, or health care...

Whichever it is, it can't be the simplest explanation that the dude just dropped dead, there's GOT to be a reason.

I don't want to sound like an ungrateful ass, give how close we've been to having an actual drought the last few years, but I've had it up to here with the !@#$ing rain...

I mean it's the perfect kind: 1" over three days, long soakers, with an occasional spot of sun or torrential downpour... But honestly enough is enough.

I just finished a 40 minute meeting with a deputy commissioner. While not entirely unpleasant, it was remarkably draining.

Yesterday, I was busting Big O's hump for slowing the family down by not putting his shoes on. The exchange:

BO: I'm trying dad...
BB: There is no try, only do or not do... DO
BO: That ridiculous.
BB: Actually no --cut off--
BO: If you are trying, it's implied you are doing... it just hasn't happened yet.
BB: ::blink:: you know, you've got a point...

Whole interchange, maybe 10 seconds.

During my ranting today WRT to Uly getting dismissed from school, I dug up this recording H made for the BBC when the DC sniper was running amok a couple of years ago... It seemed sort of appropriate, and if that !@#$ing church and posted that !@#$ing minister's email I would have sent it to him.

for those who may have forgotten... or never knew about it... enjoy

They've actually closed O's school through Thursday of next week.

I swear to God, it's like people for two, three generations were trained to live in fear during the cold war. In the nineties, we didn't know what to do with ourselves... Then 9/11 happened, and we got back to the same old shtick. It's like we can't get the fuck away from it.

H just got back from taking O to school, and apparently the school had been taken OVER by crazy circus clowns impersonating the press, cops and politicians, All (I'm told) looking out for the best interests of the kids... who are wondering WTF as the fucking kid who MAY have swine flu didn't even come to school after he'd gotten sick.

Un fucking believable.

How I spent my day:



What are they? I cut up a set of old shelves into 'trophy sheilds' and mounted the heads we'd been saving from the boy's birthday pinatas.

Big O is struggling with government.

Yesterday, he said he'd read in a book that George Washington BEGGED to be king, but the people, in their wisdom forced him to only be President.

I didn't push on which book, but I gave him my interpretation which is that G.W. took the initiative to define what it meant to be a leader that wasn't a king... this is what he did that was so great. We went on to talk about kings, despots, US government (specifically how the three branches of government a like scissor,paper,rock each of the three can trump one of the others)... He then stopped, and asked how it was G.W.Bush could have been a dictator... I pointed out that he wasn't actually, it's just that he did his best to push the envelope... He actually imprisoned people for nearly as long as O'd been alive for no other reason than he said they were 'terrorists' he hid them from the other branches so they couldn't 'trump' them...

He then said, 'well Obama's going to put him in for jail for this, right?'

It was at this point, I got to do my first bullshit parenting dance... Trying to explain why Obama wasn't going to push for prosecutions... While he could see my point, I'm pretty sure he's having none of it.

It's all really part of a comedy act that Glenn Beck calls "poor man's Seinfeld" and which the rest of the world refers to as "John Birch Society pamphlets shrieked aloud by a bipolar jackass."

Man. that's funny.

I tried watching foxnews once a couple of years ago, and gave up as the constant stream of crap, the crawler, the ranting, the pictures, was just too annoying to focus on. I could imagine wingnuts I know going for it, as the very act of focusing on 20 banal things at once would make them feel 'smart.'

I want to try to watch Glenn Beck, I want to try to see what all the fuss is about, but I suspect in the end, I'll end up bored, and sort of let down. Seriously, how could real life ever compare to "John Birch Society pamphlets shrieked aloud by a bipolar jackass?" My imagination is reeling with the possibilities.

Heh.

My first post to LJ. Made April 17, 2000. Pretty much says it all.
