To some extent, if you don't accept that the Qur'an is the true word of God as delivered by Gabriel to Muhammad, then you consider Islam a "false religion". Maybe it's a matter of context.

I'm guessing it is. People who say Islam is a "false religion" are almost always rightwing Christians who believe the US was founded on Christian principles.

What's even scarier is if you break down the numbers not by party affiliation, but by region:

I have got to get the FUCK OUT OF HERE. Please, fates, send a wonderful job opportunity to my husband. I won't even bitch about moving, I swear!

I don't know where to send them, though - just somewhere ELSE, on the other side of a nice WALL (like in Rucker's SCIFI, we could exile them to Florida) and leave them there to stew in their own hypocrisy and madness.

For the love of all that's good and puppies, NOT UNTIL I LEAVE THIS GODFORSAKEN PIT OF DESPAIR!

Air New Zealand safety video...with body paint. (Safe for work!)

The conspiracy theory that is bugging me right now is that government health care for the elderly means that the elderly won't get health care and die. Ack! They almost all already have government health care. Health care reform is supported by the AARP. Geez.

Jon Stewart showed amazing footage last night about Obama getting asked crazy-ass questions about health care reform.

What are people doing this weekend?

First tournament of the fencing season. Which is gonna suck.

weekend - same stuff as normal, but with a Zipcar on Saturday so I can do a Home Depot run. I am hoping a friend and his father will take mac to the pklayground for a few hours on Sat so I can do some of the heavy work in the house.

IF that happens, then Sun mac and I will go to the movies and maybe Ethiopian food.

other possibilities: a metric ton of laundry, farmer's market, ebay listing.

Mandatory suicide counseling. "Are you sure your family wouldn't be better off with you gone? Really?"

No, seriously, I'm not making that up. There are Congressmen claiming this is part of the draft bill.
