october surprise 

Well, there's only two days left until the Saints come marching in and this cursed month is over. Ain't a game changer happened just yet.

Personally, I tend to believe that personally, like all Americans, or all like Americans, or whatever, that the October surprise will arrive four days late in the guise of a giant cluster-fuck that makes 2000 look like your frackin' junior high student council elections.

Or sump'in like that.

Never forget my dear reader, and always remember. . .

The Boogie-Man is dead. (And man, do we ever miss him.)

So is Guy Fawkes. (A penny for the old guy.)

So um, trick or treat?

Choose wisely.

in celebrity news. . . 

'cuz really, does it matter my dear reader? The global economy is tanking and the frackin' army is out there somewhere getting ready for something?

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

Besides, we have no more ability to influence the course of those affairs than do a school of fish to alter the current in the ocean as it pushes them ever closer to the nets.

And we all know that all that really matters is what the rich and the beautiful are up to nowadays.

So. . .

Beyonce is changing her persona and her name.

Sasha Fierce.

Hmmm. . . Sounds hardcore, tough, perhaps a little, well um. . . forgive my honesty, but I calls 'em like I sees' em. . . perhaps a little bitchy.

She's married to Jay-Z, right?

You think now he's got a hundred problems?

fnord 

A set-up?

We better watch out, man. They are coming for us.

Oh shit, they're already here.

Who are they goin' after first?

That one?

Oh, I see.

Oh, Sweet Blessed Mother of Irony, I pray save us now.

Then what happens?

Probably something like this.

These guys gotta be getting ready for something.

Hey, hey!
Ooh!
The kingdom is ransacked
the jewels all taken back
and the chopper descends
they're hidden in the back
with a message on a half-baked tape
with the spool going round
saying I'm back here in this place
and I could cry
and there's smoke you could click on

What are we gonna do now?
Taking off his turban, they said, is this man a Jew?
'Cause they're working for the clampdown
They put up a poster saying we earn more than you!
When we're working for the clampdown
We will teach our twisted speech
To the young believers
We will train our blue-eyed men
To be young believers

cool 

Okay, so it's been what, like twenty-some years since I first read the words that caused the ground beneath my feet began to slowly shift towards the virtual.

I read the first sentence and something clicked.

The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.

This is almost as cool and really fuckin' scary if you think too much about it:

divide et impera 

Okay. I get it.

And I have little doubt that you do also, my dear reader.

But let's take a step back and look at the bigger picture for just a moment.

I, for one, find it somewhat curious that for at least the past eight years in this country, We The People as a nation find ourselves somewhat evenly split in our allegiances to our political views. This trend continues to this day. Here's a link to the polls if you don't believe me. As a whole, we basically split right down the middle, give or take a few percentage points to either side of the whole left/right paradigm thing.

Doesn't that make you the least bit curious, my dear reader, as to why?

Obama, McCain, Obama, McCain, Biden, Palin, Obama, McCain. . .

Whatever man. It really doesn't matter if it comes up head or tails if the coin your tossin' has no value.

So who benefits?

Woody knew.
Yes, as through this world I've wandered
I've seen lots of funny men;
Some will rob you with a six-gun,
And some with a fountain pen.
We've been robbed.

this is your brain 

. . . Okay so maybe it's not but then again I ain't no angry young temptress in a tank top, no neither I'm not. So just get over yourself.

But please just listen up and pay attention all the same. . .

Nobody want its, none of the time. Hell, when even a freakin' FOX News poll says the score is 7-3. . .

Poll: Most Americans Against Bush's Bailout Plan

. . . you just know you gotta add at least of couple of touchdowns to our side if you really wanna know the score.

Go us.

So you know that truly ain't nobody wants this thing going down.

But yet it is happening and will most likely continue to do so.

The Senate's pandering their pants off trying to lure House defectors with their wares so they can give it another whack.

Senate to vote on rescue plan with added tax cut

The odds of a senatized bill being rejected by he House are about the same odds as those of a drunk co-ed on Spring Break waking up with her honor intact after a blurry night of Bacardi, Budweiser, and body shots in a beach side motel room.

And what's the use anyways, the Big Guys are pushin' it hard:

Obama, McCain, Biden all to vote on bailout bill

I close my eyes and hear them shouting at each other: "I'm gonna save America." "No I'm gonna save America."

Ain't no wonder we're wandering in a wilderness of sorts, all pissed off, pissed on, and just plain pissed at the whole blasted scene.

But then again, don't fool yourself.

No, just don't.

'Cuz this ain't about us. This ain't never been about us.

It's all about the Benjamins my brotha, and they are all betting against us:
Stocks rallied Tuesday, with the Dow jumping 485 points on bets that Congress will pass a version of the government's $700 billion package, following Monday's crushing defeat.
Following Monday's "crushing defeat" the markets are betting this thing will pass.

And the are troops ready to roll if we decide we don't like it.

Any questions?
