I myself am more than annoyed by the fact that certain religious/military groups constantly want to drag the 21st Century into their Thousands of Years of Warfare and Hatred. Other than new weapons technologies supplied by outside countries, (or new innocents to kill) nothing much new is here. The Lust for natural resources has most national attentions pinned like a butterfly in a glass box as refugees run hither and yon. So if you feel like justifying the actions on one group versus another group, then have at it my friend.
As for me, my attention tends to wander about like a drunken sailor on the docks, heading for the buildings where singing can be heard, or maybe for that little place where the incredible aromas of freshly-made food drifts away on invisible breezes.
And here on the internet tubes in the ever-expanding world of blogging writers and readers, the newest study says the average writer/reader is a 14 year old girl posting OMG!!! and other horrible shorthands and misspellings as they unravel the mysteries of the latest American Idol machinatons or the problematic nature of cell phones and downloading ringtones. Or maybe you're just a political hack preaching the victories of Your Candidate/Pundit and the evils of The Other Candidate/Pundit.
And then there are those bloggers whose activities defy categories.
Which brings you and me to the point of this post:
Some thieves have hauled off a 14-foot inflatable sheep and the authorities say they can't find it:
"I can't figure out what someone would do with a 14-foot sheep," Sather said. "It can't go in your basement and if it's in your back yard, your neighbor will notice. If it's target practice, it only lasts once.'
All the thief or thieves left was a handwritten note at the scene of the crime that read: "For the sheep, bring peace to the earth."
I'm done. Are you still reading? Well, stop. And leave your comments
I'd rather have inflatable pigs. Three different ones.

ReplyDeleteThat just doesn't read/sound right at all....
ReplyDeleteI stumbled across a quote that kind of applies to
ReplyDelete"certain religious/military groups constantly want to drag the 21st Century into their Thousands of Years of Warfare and Hatred. Other than new weapons technologies supplied by outside countries, (or new innocents to kill) nothing much new is here."
It goes: "When the only tool in your box is a hammer, every problem begins to look like a nail."
Our current leaders are the product of the military/industrial powers Eisenhower referred to. When you have a problem there is an enemy in there somewhere, so wake up the eavesdroppers and send in the stormtroopers.
The sheep is very safe but it takes up the whole damn living room and pisses off my wife and frightens my cats. Also,youcannot change a fanatics mind.
