New Laptop=New Blog Entry

We have a new laptop. Dude, we got a Dell. It’s shiny & pretty with a big screen and most importantly it’s wireless which means more blogging in the bathroom! Oh, crap!

There’s a part of me which thinks the apocalypse is upon us. I haven’t voiced it out loud but certainly with the market circling the drain, wars on two fronts (nothing new there really) and rampant corruption everywhere, I have to say I’m a little disheartened about the future of the country. The left wants us to believe Barack Obama can fix the world, and the right is trying to convince us he’s a terrorist, and since we can’t have a terrorist leading the country, well, you better pick John McCain. Except, God forbid we elect him and he kicks the bucket, and we end up with a hockey mom playing el presidente (La Presidenta?). Hoenstly, does anyone outside of Alaska, left or right, think she can lead this country? If you’re reading this, and you do, well, I dunno what to say.

Did you know there’s actually four other candidates? Ralph Nader is one of them — and he’s not even the green candidate! (Made that mistake before on live television, oops) There’s even a woman among them! Not that we’d be allowed to tell you because while anyone can run for president, only democrats and republicans can “become” president.

Following the whole apocalypse thing — Did you know Barack Obama appears to not only be distantly related to Dick Cheney but also he and the President are distant cousins? Did you also know some people believed that had it not been for the Bush Adminstration’s bungling in the White House… the GOP nominee would probably be Jeb Bush? (Incidentally, Sarah Palin is a tenth cousin of Princess Diana, ALLEGEDLY). Conspiracy theorists would say Obama’s pending presidency is being orchestrated by a group of shadowy individuals trying to bring us into a “new world order.” I can’t help but think this Global Economic Crisis only proves how dependent the major developing countries of the Earth are dependent on each other. In other news, NASA is considering sending an SUV to Mars to see if it once supported life. I know a certain hockey mom who I bet those crafty rocket scientists could convince to drive it (“A hockey game on Mars? Sure, I can getcha there, you betcha!”)

Also, as I learned today, apparently there is “Life on Mars” – and it strangely resembles New York City circa 1973.

And the friggin’ Dodgers lost Game 1. However, nothing changes. They still have to win four games. One better be tomorrow.

As for my apocalyptic concerns… Dad, when China invades… maybe then I’ll believe it. Until then, yay cynicism!

Anyway, I’m going to throw back a few advils and attempt to conk out. Hopefully, the shadow bad guy will stay away from me tonight. Seriously, I had night terrors last night. I literally screamed myself awake in my dream because I was being attacked by a shadow, after it attacked my fiancee as I could only watch, frozen stiff with absolute terror. Scariest nightmare I’ve had in a long, long time. Ugh.
