Desperately playing catch-up here...
Oy, oy, oy, what a day. That software thingie kicked my ass, Air America's streaming sucked today, and around 6:00, i started petting one of my cats and very nearly fell asleep altogether. Anyway... a lot of people are pretty pissed off today.
Military families are pissed at Rummy's stop-loss. Woodward's book preview came out, and no doubt the White House is pissed (more on this in a bit). Today is Poop for Peace Day, which has got to piss off somebody. Karl Rove is pissed over the 'Mission: Accomplished' banner.
Don't go to the airport if you're pissed, because someone may decide you're a terrorist. The CIA is apparently pissed that they're being scapegoated by the 9/11 Commission, so they released proof to the contrary.
Okay, I'll stop now, before I piss you off.
Replies: 5 people speak up
yea, well, at least it's them folks who are pissed for once.
Great site, just found you today...

It's really hard to follow something like Poop for Peace Day, and this is probably not the best item to use all things considered, but I just found out that tomorrow is MoveOn's Bake Sale for Democracy event.
The link is for sites in LA but you can put your own zipcode in to see if there's a bake sale near you. If you're into the low-carb thing buy something anyway, you can always use it for constructive bribery of peace officers on civil-disobedience occasions. :)

Xan, carb schmarb, after the last couple of weeks I can really use a cake high this weekend. :-P (What a great idea from MoveOn.)
"I wish the banner was not up there," said White House political strategist Karl Rove. "I'll acknowledge the fact that it has become one of those convenient symbols."
Oh, Turd BLossom doesn't know the half of it. Just wait till the anniversary ... I can hear the PhotoShop/PSP engines revving up already.

Peanut, my apologies, that should have been the "No CARB (Cheney, Ashcroft, Rumsfeld, Bush) Bake Sale"
(Shamelessly stolen from the actual name being used for this project by the fine folks in Seattle, WA)
And there is apparently NO truth to the rumor that somebody named Rice has donated a truckload full of yellowcakes to this event...
Hee hee. :)

Long hours of being pissed can make you sick. No really. I suggest drinking while you blog on occasion to get your perspectives straightend out.
