D.C. is a lovely place to visit, as long as the traffic is ignored. The FDR memorial was overly extravagant.

Working at Hollister is the (second) easiest job ever. Save for Josh's stop/go Budweiser quality control job, folding clothes is the activity utilizing the minimum brain activity.

I finished Lies on the trip, so now I can return it to Phil ( Read more... )

Well see when I went to that Concord Book Award thing they gave me Lies My Teacher Told Me (too lazy to do all that stuff you gotta do to underline), so I was wondering if you meant that book. It's also a very interesting read.

I am sure you would like it. I didn't agree with anything he said, but it was very funny.

Excerpts:
Nine months after Bush took office, we went to war against the Taliban regime in Afghanistan. The Soviets couldn't conquer Afghanistan. Neither could the British in 1919. But somehow, we did it in a few weeks. With no new funding, Donald Rumsfeld had taken our "gutted" military and, with a little string and baling wire, turned it into the greatest fighting force in the history of the planet. The man is a fucking genius.

Remember the fleet of manned and unmanned aerial vehicles Saddam was building? Bush told us, "We are concerned that Iraq is exploring ways of using these UAV's for missions targeting the United States." This turned out to be about as plausible as the Malawi space program, which consists of a bucket and one man's dreams.

Thanks for visiting me at Hollister yesterday. I looked in Aero on my way out but didn't see you.
