Wha ... Blog? What Blog?

Oh gosh.  I have a blog.  I wonder if I shouldn't outsource this to someone in India.

Seriously, every time I hear or read something outrageous and decide to write about it, something twice as unbelievable comes along and just flummoxes me.  What the f....??  I've been thinking that a lot lately.


What about that Shirley Sherrod business?  Wasn't that bizarre?  Did she take the job that Vilsack offered her, to make up for the slam-dunk bitch slap?  If I were her, I'd demand about $200,000 dollars, do that job for a while, then retire with a big fat monthly check.  And I wouldn't do any work; I'd play golf like the white guys do when they're supposed to be at work.

I love how all the rich folks are squawking about the horror of letting the bush tax cuts for the wealthy expire.  But what about job creation, they wimper.  Oh my god, does anyone still fall for that scam?  Please tell me no.

The oil spill.   Shocking news ... are you sitting down:  BP lied about ... everything.  And is still lying.  And hasn't put a cent into the 20 billion fund.  You remember that fund, the one that the socialist in the white house extorted (with Chicago style politics) out of those poor BP executives.  Does this lack of payment mean that the Obama haters will like him better now?  Or will they gloat over his apparent fecklessness?

So what's with Jim Webb and his call for ending affirmative action cause it is mean to white people? I've not noticed any lack of white people running the world.  Am I missing something?  Is he worried about poor people?  Cause poor people tend to stay poor with or without affirmative action.  I'd say that the lack of jobs, unions, health care, mobility, and education do a lot more harm to whites than affirmative action.  But I could be wrong.  After all, I'm not a white male senator.  

This just in:  the war in Afghanistan is a hopeless muddle.  American forces kill civilians.  Sorry to be the one to break this to you.  Every time we kill one of the "bad guys", a dozen other bad guys step up to take his place.   Doesn't anyone who got us into these 2 wars ever read any history books?  I am ashamed of the immorality of these wars.  I believe the founding fathers (wholly owned by the right wing) would be appalled and ashamed by these actions.

That's all I've got for now.  I have to go put a cold cloth on my forehead.

More of My Handiwork

I grew these:



And I am indirectly responsible for this:



I'd say my time here on earth has been well-spent.

The nectarines are quite good, considering that I have made no effort other than watering.  Georgia Grace is quite the peach, isn't she!
