Huh?

I just now forgot how old I was. Sometimes it's kinda scary when I forget shit like that. For the past few years, since I started college or at the end of highscool, my memory has been out of sync. It's like having trouble finding files you've saved on your computer. I don't know why the memory is like this, but I have a hunch it may have been the side effects of the couple of blackouts I had from drinking too much. You live and you learn.

G.O.P.

The moderate Republican Senator from Pennsylvania has taken leave of his party of many decades to join the Democratic party earlier yesterday. Specter said that he felt the Party pushed him away because of its move to the hard right and lack of inclusiveness which would result in him losing in an upcoming Republican primary. In their quest to purify the Party they inevitably ostracize many of their members. The Republicans are not looking good following the leave of George W. Bush. They have crazies like Bachmann talking nonsense, are defending the use of torture when it is illegal, and calling for small gov't and leaving the Union due to gov't interference. At the same time Texas needs Federal aid for their floods, and they need gov't troops to patrol their border because of violence in Mexico.

Rain Storm

Looks like a bolt of lightning appeared close by as I was browsing blogs. I did not see it, but peripherally the light flashed brightly and the thunder followed seconds later which sort of confirms how close it is. I guess I should step away from the computer right now. I'm sitting right by the window, butt ass naked as it's raining outside.

Don't Hold that Grudge

After Rama killed Ravana in a viscious battle the brother of the dead Raksasa did not want to bury him because of the evil Ravana instigated. Rama was like, "Dude, the best thing you can do is to put aside your hate and do the responsible thing by performing the burial rights". I think when everything is aired out between two or more opposing factions you've got to be reasonable and wipe the chip off your shoulder.
