Halloween 2006.

I dressed as...

THE PATRIOT ACT!

Halloween 2006

Harassing librarians!


Halloween 2006 2

Taking that important illegal wiretap call!


The book is just some research I'm doing for my cousin, H.R. 6166.

You know, the "Torture Bill."  Those liberals and their crazy nicknames!

Oh, and the cash in my pocket is from a money laundering scheme I broke up. It's not a bribe. It doesn't belong to me. Be quiet.

Must dash, children. No worries, though, I'll be watching.

And listening.

I wrote a big thing about why New Year’s is my second favorite holiday, Halloween being the first.

But I’ve decided, fuck that, people always say the same things about New Years: big changes, the year I finally do (insert thing here), wiping the slate clean.

The slate is not clean.
The world is not clean.
Most of us will not lose weight and shape-up.

But, goddamn it, you have a fucking OBLIGATION to make the world a better place. Why? Because I said so.

2005: has a nice science-fiction ring to it, yes?
Try making it the year where you make a difference. To the world, to yourself, to somebody else.

Arbitrary date? Yes.
Resolutions for shit? Yes.
Bills and worries gone? No.
A WAY TO FEEL THAT SOMETHING NEW IS HERE, AND THAT YOU WILL HELP MAKE IT SOMETHING IMPORTANT? You know the answer.

On that note, maybe this year when I promise you a story, I’ll actually deliver.

I have one for tomorrow night, I hope.

CURRENT BOOK: THE GOD OF SMALL THINGS, Arundhati Roy
LAST MOVIE: Bits of RAISING HELEN that Sara’s family was watching
CURRENT MUSIC: “Gooby Mass” – Lou Reed
LAST THING I SAW THAT MADE ME WANT TO CRY AND HIT THINGS AT THE SAME TIME: http://www.ogrish.com *WARNING* this is not a site for the faint of heart. This is a site for people who want to see what a suicide bombing REALLY looks like. What an execution of Iraqi cops REALLY looks like. Why I am so fucking opposed to the war it makes me sick. Damn, but I am bitter tonight. I gotta go kiss my wife.

Oh, and special thanks to [livejournal.com profile] man_size for reminding me that this site exists...
