Stoking The Fires

I had one of my meltdowns this weekend. After I do, my tendency is to slink away from the blog for a while and get my shit together. That's kind of where I'm at now. I've got nothing for you guys. But rather than walk away without saying a word, I thought I light up your RSS feeds and let loose with some terrorist fist jabs.

I'm quite weary of all the Sarah Palin posts and the "stick-to-the-issues" bullshit that followed. Hey, she's a politician. Personal scrutiny is fair game. Just ask Bill Clinton.



By the same token, let's not forget that Barack Obama is no fucking saint either. Yes, I'm a Democrat and I will vote for him, but the man is not beyond reproach. After all, this is the same guy who voted for the re-vamped FISA bill which grants the giant telcos retroactive immunity for cooperating with Bush's warrantless surveillance program. He's also the same guy who wants to expand faith-based government programs.

No. I'm not up for any of that shit. I'd rather let Danny Wilson do my talking tonight...

Mary's Prayer

Song For Today....

Maybe it's because I'm just not with it today....

Or, maybe it's for no damn good reason at all...

Heaven 17 - Let Me Go

Once there was a day
We were together all the way
An endless path unbroken
But now there is a time
A torture less sublime
Our souls are locked and frozen

Once we were years ahead but now those thoughts are dead
Let me go
All hopeless fantasies are making fools of me
Let me go
I walk alone and yet I never say goodbye
Let me go
A change of heart a change of mind and heaven fell that night
Let me go

I tried but could not bring
The best of everything
Too breathless then to wonder
I died a thousand times
Found guilty of no crime
Now everything is thunder

Daytime all I want is
Nighttime I don't need the
Daytime all I want is
Nighttime I don't need the

The best years of our lives
The hope of it survives
The facts of life unspoken
The only game in town
I'll turn the last card down
And now the bank is broken

Found guilty of no crime
They were the best years of our lives
I'll turn the last card down
