Wish I'd Said That
If for whatever reason you value my opinions occasionally, believe me when I tell you you won't regret reading All The Rage by Paul Waldman. I found it on Common Dreams, and have no idea where it came from originally. Just... go read it. It's not that long, to be honest it's not long enough. He could have gone on longer, I think. But it's exactly right, and I'm going to memorize it for the next time some asshole accuses me of "Bush Derangement Syndrome".

Hey, you....
Thanks. "All The Rage" is worthy of being memorized. It sure the hell beats the pathetic crap out of "Hey, hey! Ho, ho! George Bush has got to go!"
Because I am succumbing to not-exactly-premature decrepitude, I take seriously the recommendations for brain games, to preserve the gray stuff. Like doing crossword puzzles. (I enjoy, but do not love, crossword puzzles.)
Other brainiac exercises include memorizing stuff, like poems, or (for me, of late) Aimee Mann lyrics. Someone should totally vid "How Am I Different" from the Bachelor No. 2 CD, someone who is not me, since I don't have the skillz. But damn, I can picture a de-saturated slo-mo of Bush, Cheney, Rice, Rumsfeld, et al., doing their power walk to a helicopter, while Aimee's singing, "Just one question before I pack - When you fuck it up later, do I get my money back?"
Ya know? Okay, so I should print out "All The Rage" and get going.
D. Sidhe, I am glad you are in the world and on the net(s).

Yes, excellent. Thanks.
