Crap that I'm Sick Of...
Because there's crap...then there's crap that I'm sick of...
1. And they can't find Nessie, either: US weapons inspectors need more time to find the weapons of mass destruction (WoMD) that were part of the case for going to war against Iraq. They have found evidence of a weapons program, but so far there is no evidence of the actual weapons, but there is evidence of the hope for weapons. Maybe the White House can turn the desire for weapons into a weapons program.
2. The object is to win the playoff games with pitching and defense: the Red Sox are down two games to none in their best of five playoff series thanks to, among other things a lack of pitching and defense. Pedro Martinez throws 130 pitches Wednesday night and has nothing to show for it other than a sore arm and brass cojones that are being placed on the back burner until Game 5 of the series, by which time Sox fans may have been put out of our misery.
3. If you think the media pumped up that "black" QB, I've got an escaped gorilla on a Metco bus to show you: While the nation still debates whether Rush Limbaugh is racist or a conspiracy theorist media critic or both, Boston area sports radio host, John Dennis, has been suspended for comparing an escaped gorilla to a Metco student. For two whole days (shocking! I know) Dennis will have to sit and think very hard about his insensitive comments. For those who may not know: Metco students are those voluntarily bussed from urban areas in Boston to suburban schools. In other words, Dennis was trying to make a funny, if one can consider the comparison of African-Americans to gorillas funny, but who am I to judge the sense of humor of the ignorant? What these episodes really prove is that we still have a way to go in race relations. Dennis will return to the airwaves and Limbaugh will return to the cocoon of his radio show and unchallenged viewpoints.
4. I am just trying to tell if those breasts are ripe: Just in time for the California Recall Election the LA Times reports that Arnold Schwarzeneggeris a serial groper with very little respect for women, but, hey, California, this is your next governor. Republicans are up in arms about the double standard: "What about Teddy Kennedy?" they cry. "What about Bill Clinton?" they moan. The real issue should be: what about Arnold's lack of political experience, I mean, even down to the level of voting?
5. Oooohhh, I'm telling...:Now, is giving away secrets (oh, such as the fact that the wife of a political rival, who called you out for not telling the truth about a little tiny thing like WoMD mentioned in item #1, is a CIA operative, thereby blowing her cover) any way to earn the trust of the American people?
6. BONUS: Wedding Drama: The people that the S.O. and I surround ourselves with are certifiable. Let's leave it at that.
