(no subject)

I am embarrassed that I rarely comment on anything other people write.

I felt awful, but somehow, oatmeal cookie ice cream made me feel better. However, I still have this question: how do I learn something when I am afraid I am wasting my time learning it for a job that may not be there and is something that I do not enjoy?

I am reading more than writing. I also wonder if other people want me to cover other songs in phone posts.

A rant by links

Dear religious folks voting for Bush:

Abortion actually increased during his term, he doesn't really heal the sick, and er, he's a heretic. Plus scary. I just don't want to return to the 19th century. Or rather, this weird Calvinist feudalism that has little compassion or sense.

I do not consider myself a Christian, but I do think one thing Jesus said is important: 'by their fruits, you will know them.'

"This is why George W. Bush is so clear-eyed about Al Qaeda and the Islamic fundamentalist enemy. He believes you have to kill them all. They can't be persuaded, that they're extremists, driven by a dark vision. He understands them, because he's just like them. . ."
