Tomdispatch.com is one of my favorite morning reads. It makes you think. The last three days have covered things I have been thinking about since September 11, 2001. I don't have a green thumb, but after the attacks I tried gardening. I had some romantic idea that what I was doing was like the WWII "victory gardens" or some shit. I was completely and utterly defeated by these rotten little fuckers. They defeated me with all of the petroleum products necessary for gardening in this area, and piped in water readily available.
Life is funny that way isn't it? How free are we, I mean, really? Are we free to change the lives of millions of people like "Bechtel Corporation, Bank of America, Standard Oil of California, Pacific Gas and Electric, Southern Pacific, U.S. Steel, and American Trust Company." and GM do?
*** On a more positive note, the Programmer who alleged plot to steal Florida election runs for Congress in spite of the fact that "his former employer was found dead in a cheap motel room.."
Good thing that there are people who deal with rodents better than I do, eh?
Unbelievable.
