I'm as Mad as Hell...



America's healthcare slogan: "Don't Get Sick."


I really hope that Michael Moore's new movie, "Sicko", will arm the American people to do something about the state of health care in this country. Don't get sick, get mad.

In U.S. News and World Report, Moore mentions Congressman John Conyers' HR 676 bill in Congress: affordable health care for all. It seems to be the only concrete plan we have going for us now. Support it.

My favorite name ever

Tikki tikki tembo-no sa rembo-chari bari ruchi-pip peri pembo

Isn't it amazing that I can remember the name of the main character in this children's book after 20 years?

Reasons Why Gay Marriage is Wrong

01) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.

02) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

03) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

04) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

05) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britany Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

06) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.

07) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.

08) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.

09) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.

10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life span.

Bodies for Oil


Let's see, it might take about one republican and half a skinhead to run my little Neon. Not a bad idea!

Let's Make Oil

Back from Italy


I'm back from beautiful Italy. Rome was crazy, crowded and unfriendly, but a lot to see. Florence is on the list as one of my favorite cities. I saw Anthony Bordaine of No Reservations filming in Pisa and the Cinque Terre is one of the most beautiful places on earth. Here is just a taste of little Vernazza.
