It should NOT take the National Guard FIVE FUCKING DAYS to reach a city devastated by a hurricane that we KNEW was going to hit and we KNEW was going to be a disaster of epic proportions and Bush CANNOT somehow make it all better by flying down there and hugging a couple hurricane victims for the camera. There should've been buses packed full of ( Read more... )

Went to some bizarre concert at House of Bricks Sunday night with Deano and Jess... didn't care for The Offering or the other band too much, but House of Heroes was great. I also bought this strange Oriental sandwich at a grocery store that didn't taste like anything I've ever eaten before, and I got checked out when we walked by the Blazing Saddle ( Read more... )
