Sorry...

... for the unannounced outage. I get very ill very quickly and like lots of guys, I brushed it off and wished it away. Got too much there and I had to take some time off.

I am feeling lots better now, but it is hard to get going again. So far behind that it makes task lists look almost like a joke.

And all of this during the most heinous crime of the century... some goofy asshole with no audience makes a stupid comment (and it aint like he hasn't said this kind of vile shit before... that's what he does) and the world came to an end. And women who tell us they are tough and want to be leaders now tell us that their world crashed down when they heard the stupid comment. What? Are they serious? Or are they politically sucking up to a mantra of victimhood? My daughters would hopefully have responded with a few chosen expletives and a laugh. I hope.

It is really tough to back up shit when you don't know what you really believe and are only reacting to hysteria. I hope these young ladies who were so devastated by a barely literate cretin never go into, you know, business, law, politics... where words can have, you know... real consequences. Wouldn't it have been so much better for them to stand up as one voice and say..."Who gives a shit about what a 10th rate DJ thinks... we just won. Screw him. We are something. He is so far out the door he wont hear it slam." Or something. Victimhood is ugly and even uglier when it is embraced as a banner. Shame on all of them.... jerkjock, players, coach and the ever-stupid press.

Then we had the school shootings and I wonder if the perspective of real crime versus bullshit crime was discernable to most folks. I hope so, but now I hear that we have to "understand", and "forgive" the slimeball who kills our friends but no forgiveness for the asshole who mutters words. Sorry, don't really care about the Imus creep, but he didn't, you know, kill anyone. If this distinction is lost on anyone, I can only imagine how proud they must be of their ability to breathe.

A major network falls into its own quagmire of "ethically challenged positions' when it states that they do not show guys running on the field of baseball games cause it may encourage others to do the same, but show the video of asswipe with his guns and totally unfathomable crap with the statement that they don't think it will encourage others to do the same. What?

Yeah. That's what passes for critical thinking these days.

I know. I must still be in a fever. Where's my medication?

End of rant... back to other, lighter endeavors. Soon.
