I'm with you Mike. It's damned scary and in a lot of situations damned embarrassing.
The Mayans say the world goes bye bye in 2012. Looking at the current state of things, I'm starting to believe it.
I mean, nukes and religious freaks everywhere, kids can build bombs by getting plans off the internet and to top it off,
the freakin Spice Girls are coming back. If anything was a sign of impending doom, that's it.
Seriously, not sure how we're going to turn things around.
Personally (and I was too young) speaking, the 60s talk of "all you need is love" and "make love not war" are sadly missing from our world today. (And no, I don't mean the drugs dickweeds!) Just the idea of everyone getting along...
It'll never happen with humans.
I think we're screwed. If the world blows up this weekend, I just wanna say it's been good knowing you all.
And to all you Clinton bashers...
Sorry but Bush has taken us into a war that we should've never been in and the rest of the world hates our guts at this point. The dollar's in the dumper (how is THAT Clinton's fault???).
If EVER there should've been a president impeached, it's this one. Every time Cheney has a heart palpatation, I'm one step away from cracking open a bottle of champagne.
Sorry to get political. I still think "All you need is Love" and all you don't need is religious dogma. God's okay, but organizing religions and using them to start wars is BS.
You should be more afraid when we stop fighting. When the world is finally and seemingly at peace. There is someone who is going to come and tell us he can make everything all right, but it won't be alright. Not by a long shot.
Not sure I get ya there. When the world is finally and seemingly at peace, we won't need that person that says they can make everything all right because it already will be, won't it? What am I missing?
