"We fucked it up so much it's broke and there ain't no fixin' er up."

-Reality

(Picture: moments after car bomb explodes in Baghdad)

Baghdad was lost long ago. It was over when the Mongols sacked it.

Ha!

The Reality of life in Baghdad. It isn't a success story.

We've really fixed them up good, haven't we?
This is the kind of de evolution that will take generations just to get back to the way they were before we "helped them out". Who are we going to help next?

Syria and Iran. With friends like ranchboy, who needs enemies?

We should be able to set them back several hundred years just by showing up.

The human species is no more civilized today than it was 5,000 years ago.

True but we have much more powerful weapons.

Yeah, Makes me feel like kikin' some ass in the name of freedom.

I hear that it is a lot of fun.

"We should be able to set them back several hundred years just by showing up."

agenda complete.

Makes me feel like finding a place in the mountains and staying high. The older I get the more mysanthropic I feel.

And look.

Who cares about any of it? Not me. There's nothing you can do...

Sure there is. Blogging about it and complaining about it on absinthe forums helps a lot. I've probably saved at least 50 Iraqis' lives by my posts here and at FV.

Ha!

Your're both right and a keen awareness of the horror only makes that worse. I've been avoiding the news lately. I am writhing about it and participating in demonstrations, doing what little meaningless crap I can so at least when I look in the mirror I'll know I did all I could.





I'm also drinking more



I'm drunk now





gotta pick up CG since he's on the wagon.

Can you hire him as a ghost writer? I need to laugh more.

The only thing one can do is overthrow the government. Pussies.

The government has already overthrown us.

... that's precisely why I like you Porkio!

You just saved 3 right there. I was about to kill 3 hostages I had in my basement, but you made me laugh so I decided to let them live.

Are you feeding them grappa and peas?

Ha!

It just keeps getting worse.

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.....


















..I fear.

Isn't it just amazing that Iraq has been dumped to page 6 material...
