Bush is skidding

Since the wheels are coming off his presidency. And typical of this administration, lets call our enemies or critics un american for disagreeing with whatever the President says. If all of this does not smack of McCarthyism to you, please do some history research.

NBC10.com - News - Councilman Mariano Safe After City Hall Incident

NBC10.com - News - Councilman Mariano Safe After City Hall Incident well if this is not at least some sort of admission of some guilt I dont know what is. Though, two other thoughts, first, major shock that Philadelphia has more corruption, and second, it was a good plan for the Councilman, hard to be indicted when you are under medical observation. Bravo!

I predicted this

Though honestly I think it could be a major mistake, going into Syria. Well, at one point it probably was not a mistake, it would have worked out alot better if we put the Syrians on real notice after 9/11. Now to go into Syria, whether they truly assasinated the president of Lebanon or not, will just look like the angry Americans going into another muslim country. Plus the Syrians are nothing if not in with the terrorists of the world. Not a good enemy to get with, especially if you are on your own, which the United States surely would be. Hold on for a wild ride...

U2 in Philly

I believe I have found a new god, and they are named Larry, Adam, Edge and Bono.

Saw the boys for the first time ever last night at the Wachovia Center in good ole Philadelphia. It was a near perfect concert. They played everysong I wanted to hear except for Bad, but you cant have anything. The one drawback was the drunk twentysomethings dancing around right in front of us, especially during songs that really arent jump around like an idiot songs. But, that also goes to show that my friends and I are just getting a bit old, because we were 20somethings once too.

Favorite songs:
One
40
Sunday Bloody Sunday
Sometimes you cant Make it on your own

I really want to hear the Miss Sarajevo track sometime with Pavorotti.

Worse songs:
well there really arent any but if I had to pick
Fast Cars

Soaked

I was just wondering if anyone else thought it might ya know stop raining anytime soon?? I think its been wet or grey for the last 7 days here, its bordering on getting just a bit ridiculous.

A line of the week from last week that I did not get to. Or at least a paraphrase from John Stewart on the Late Show with David Letterman. "Tom Delay's face says bring it on, his body language says I am innocent, and his hair says What do I have to do to put you in this Cutlass today?" And it looks like Tom Frist might get Martha'd!
