AMERICA! FUCK YEAH!
george bush was in fort bragg tonight. i live about fifteen minutes away from there. there was a protest in downtown fayetteville, but i didn't go. it was raining, and also they were a bunch of hippies anyway, congregating around the markethouse, the single landmark fayetteville has. the word markethouse, funnily enough, comes from the fact that it was the markethouse where they sold slaves back when slavery was in vogue. i laugh.
anyway. it seems like everything he said was not only vague platitudes, it was also the same thing he's been saying since this thing started. hunt down terrorists, spread freedom, unity in iraq, free elections blahblahblah, and that we're totally gonna win this war guys, swear to god.
did the u.s. just sort of bully all those other countries into sending their own soldiers to help? last i heard, the god damned ukraine was not the wealthiest nation in the world, and probably would be better off reducing their unemployment rates and shit. i don't know, the fact that he brought up the fact that the ukraine was one of the u.s.'s allies in this whole thing just sort of stuck with me. the ukraine: the kansas of europe. aren't they the wheat country? yeah, i think so. it's been a while since sixth grade social studies, so you'll have to excuse me.
i am watching scarface, and i can't say i'm impressed. really, my dad's watching it. i'm seeing a guy get torn to pieces by a chainsaw. awesome. i've not seen this before, and i don't think i'll be paying much attention. i'd rather read the zombie survival guide, which pirates and lumberjacks would agree is awesome.
billy graham has, apparently, just finished his last american crusade. hopefully he'll die soon. christians, man. does anyone else remember where the word 'crusade' came from? christian soldiers slaughtering thousands of people to spread christianity and also take over the world? calling yourself a crusader or the missions you go on crusades isn't really a good idea. you know, if you want to enamor yourself to the intelligent people. and who the fuck goes to these 'crusades' anyway? do they actually think the heathen devils are going to be at these things, just salivating at the prospect of their salvation? pssh.
anyway. america. fuck yeah.
ALSO! i have fixed this layout. it now works in firefox. the problem was a misplaced comma. css is the devil.
A Wee Edit by Michelle: At our school...mine and Katie's (because we go to the same school incidentally)...there is this club called the Campus Crusade for Christ. It makes me want to start some sort of club with Inquisition included in the name, and keep in mind folks, I am the girl with a cross tattoed very close to her crotch.
