So, I had this whole thing planned out to write tonight, but I forgot all of it when some random chick at the bar I was at walked over to me, said something unintelligible and kissed me. It wasn't an on-the-lips kiss, it was on the cheek, but still random and startling enough that it's still forefront in my mind. I was in
Shock & Awe (we all need to use that expression as much as we can before it's trademarked and we have to pay Fox News Channel a fee every time we say it). That kind of thing needs to happen more often to me.
Anyways. There's a bunch of fuckwads out there in the world, and I have to tell you all how stupid you're being. First of all, to the anti-war protestors here in L.A.: If you're trying to make the point that violence is bad and there shouldn't be blood spilled for oil, then you shouldn't be marching on the local police station here in West L.A. and provoking the cops -- even though I cannot comprehend why you'd equate the police with war on Iraq -- and beating on parked cars and lying down in front of cars trying to make it down Santa Monica Boulevard. Second of all, to the anti-war protestors in New Mexico: If you're trying to make the point that this war is "illegal" and that violence is bad, then you shouldn't be
trespassing on Donald Rumsfeld's private territory and trashing his house.
My other comment about the war tonight? Well, Iraq did the one thing that made them look utterly stupid: they launched Scud missiles against our forces. Aren't these the same weapons they've been denying they had, and didn't they keep saying that the U.S. didn't need to invade because they'd gotten rid of all their weapons? Well, where the hell did these come from?
There was more, but it's late, and I'm tired and in
Shock & Awe. But before I go, I invite you to
check out this headline. (Link blatantly pilfered from the very cute and intelligent
