Bullet Points and an Angry Ape

Only time for bullet points – I used to have time to write were the hell did it go?

Well things are not looking up much in the economic sphere – or cube or whatever.

I notice one of the things the GOP is trying to do is blame Obama for the shitty economy and the fall in the market. Which is rich in a lot of ways. I remember that these same people worked tirelessly to deflect blame from W for 9-11 even though that was some 7 ½ months into his administration and he had been warned. Using the same standard these folks have no right to talk until August at least. Until then it’s all Bush’s fault.

Which it is anyway but if we are going to have these rules let’s make sure they are equally applied.

We’ll have to nationalize the banks. We might as well admit it and give the job to the FDIC who has done this sort of thing in the past. After that it will be important to make sure that no bank is allowed to get ‘too big to fail”

It’s been too busy to even think much. I saw a film that was awful and I haven’t even had time to write a word about it. Frankenstein’s Castle of Freaks – with a dwarf no less – the guy who played Dr. Loveless on Wild Wild West. He was if memory serves a pretty good actor but you can’t tell that from his work in Frankenstein’s Castle of Freaks – but I have to imagine being a dwarf actor means that even more than a normal starving actor you take what you get. There were no dwarfs in Citizen Cane, or All About Eve to name just a couple of films off the top of my head.

Haven’t been able to fix the computer yet – waiting for tomorrow to do that – need a clear head and a less stressed one.

Hate day light savings – the first week anyway always lagged.

I like the world baseball classic – especially the crowds – it sounds like everybody’s got a cow bell or some noise making device and is just having a blast.

One of the problems with having a big band like we do is making sure we can all be at one place at one time – the last few weeks it’s been hard – and doesn’t look to get better until May.

A combination of the most intriguing headline of the day and another indication that monkeys are going to kill us is “Angry Rock Throwing Chimp Proves Apes Make plans”
Somewhere in Germany a 31 year old chimp gathered rocks together before the opening of the zoo and then when a crowd gathered at the ape compound started hurling them at people – he didn’t hurt anybody because his aim was bad but it wasn’t for lack of trying.

And there is the strange poetry of the phrase “Angry Rock Throwing Chimp” Honestly if he wasn’t angry would he be tossing rocks in the first place? Probably not.

Well that’s all – I’ll try to do more as days go on.

Peace, Love, Angry Rock Throwing Chimps.
