That is both awesome and terrifying.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Isn't it, though? We have difficulty comprehending the mass of, say, a mountain. The mass of the sun is so beyond our comprehension (except in the abstract, number-in-scientific-notation sense).

So today President Bush offered more details on a thwarted 9/11-type attack against Los Angeles' tallest building.

The funny thing about that LA terrorism story is that I heard it reported this morning as if it was a big new story. In actuality, Bush first talked about it last October, when he was trying to divert attention from the continuing Katrina debacle and other assorted failures of his adminstration.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
And let me tell you, as an employee of the owner of the tallest buildings NEXT to the Library Tower, we ain't heard shit.

I can't help but feel sometimes that his repeated namedropping of that thwarted attack is his veiled way of saying "I can blow up Los Angeles any time I want!"

I checked Zillow for my house and neighborhood. According to it, my house has appreciated 129% since I bought it six years ago. That's some investment return.

I'm sure right now the message is supposed to be "Look what would have happened without warrentless domestic spying".

Bush'll probably keep on using it. Once he's out of office he'll probably be using it for commercials: "Look what would have happened with visible panty lines."
