And now for the birthday unwrap-up... get it unwrap... presents...get it? Punny.$100 from gramma, $75 from mom and dad,and the best of all a bottle of Capt. Morgan's Parrot Bay and a cake from Girl. Hells yeah.
Alright, soapbox time:
You gotta love it when the news media states in a very damning tone the fact that very few people even knew a space shuttle was landing until it blew up. Like they're pointing fingers at the US public, NASA, and/or the government. But, hello, you're the fucking press. We only know whatever the hell you people make a big deal out of. Gee, wonder where the blame lays for that one, eh?
National tragedies seem to always follow the same story arc (allowing for slight overlap):
Day 1-2: Facts and speculation...mostly speculation
Day 2-4: Cryings relatives.
Day 4-infinity: What agency or organization is to blame, and how many people can we get fired.
That's what it's all about, ya know? Ever since Woodward and Bernstein brought down a president, every reporter's dream has been to do the same. And if they can't get a president, well, by god they're gonna get someone.
Where the hell am I going with this? I don't know, I give up.
I saw a sign somewhere about some charity funding organ transplants, and they had a liver recipient and a heart recipient...but then they had this hot blonde woman and underneath her picture was, "Bone Recipient." Gotta love that subliminal advertising. Along the same lines, the liver recipient was a girl of twelve or so, thus signaling that her liver was in no way destroyed by alcohol.
Anyway, gotta work tomorrow, but then I'm off the next day. Perhaps I can break into that Capt. Morgans. if all goes well.
