Fuck the police! Comin' straight from the underground
A young nigga got it bad ‘cause I'm brown
And not the other color, so police think
They have the authority to kill a minority
Fuck that shit, ‘cause I ain't the one
For a punk motherfucker with a badge and a gun
To be beating on, and thrown in jail
We can go toe-to-toe in the middle of a cell

Fuck The Police -- N.W.A.

Yeah. No.

Not even want to get out of bed.

Not sure what happened.

It's the worst.

Contrary to what some say, for all intents and purposes, there is no Natty Boh' at Camden Yards.

I was at the game last night, the start of my season tickets, and I had a few drinks. Three to be precise. The first was a Blue Moon for $8.75. Not the greatest, but that was the best choice I thought from the Lites that were in this vendors box. Around the sixth inning, I felt like more beer and wanted to get my choice, Natty Boh'. I went looking...

And looking...


And looking...

It's out behind left field. The one lonely stall selling Natty Boh'. The lady was closing up shop but I had her pour me a draft.

Now there was supposedly cans being sold at certain vendors, but I didn't find them. It was nothing but beer 'ritas. Not sure why anyone would drink such a thing. I can't even imagine how they brew that up.

Anyhow, there is no Boh' there. Like it was when Camden Yards first opened.

I don't like business or finance, because of their relentless focus on making money without a care for how it affects the world. They have taken to heart the mantra: 'make money, make money, money, money.' Who does that philosophy put first? It certainly isn't employees, consumers, the economy, or the country, but the corporations, banks, and financial industry. There is nothing good when money is the sole focus of an endeavor. Especially, if you make it an excuse to gobble all the resources for yourself.

WWJD?

What I felt when reading through today's link the first time was resignation. I already knew that we gave up a lot of our freedom for the safe, security we needed to defeat a bunch of know-nothing, backwards scaremongers of the Middle East. But the more I read, the more I got angry.

What the hell man?! This is supposed to keep us safe? I feel safe already? FUDGE these guys.

Then the article started getting into some of the specifics. Like how the 'white hat hackers' are cracking our development tools to inject malicious code into our applications. That just makes me disgusted.

Is this our United States? Is this what we wanted? We wanted to feel safe for this? Thanks, W. FUDGE that guy. FUDGE you guys for giving in.

Took the MBP to MacMedics because she has to get fixed. I think I should just get a new one.

She was starting to report drive issues when I hooked up DiskUtility to her. That can't be good. Hopefully, this cloned drive is good and I can restore it to as it was before she got sick.

My suggestion to you. Backup. Backup. Backup.

If you all followed me on twitter, you would've been treated to my crazy rants (crazants!) on how I feel about the Orioles. I think I've raged against them every game. Last night, they were coming back (I know, right?), but then Matusz who although kept them in the game through six, still sucks though, was relieved by the worse bunch of "pitchers" in the MLB. I've gone to calling these guys arsonists: the opposite of what relief pitching should be doing. They're throwing gas on the fire!

Anyhow, I believe this song is appropriate for our bullpen. Wouldn't it be funny if Camden Yards music director played this for our chief arsonist Kevin Gregg when he comes out in relief? It would be awesome!

Yes. It is very personal. It is part of who I am, and who I am is a sucker. It is a large part of my identity -- wrapped around me like a Patagonia better sweater. I have to peel it away, and let myself understand that it isn't me. It is my job.

Now if I can only get over the fear of looking for a new job. Or being jobless. Or the new day. Or the new place. Or the new people. Or the interviews.

Once again, Peter Gibbons will describe me in a succinct, brilliant quote: "I'm gonna end up doing it, because, uh... because I'm a big pussy, which is why I work at Initech to begin with."

My thoughts on AIG and their bonuses is best summed up in another quote
from NewsRadio.

"I get a ticket, I pay it. You get a ticket, you pay it. They get a
ticket, they don't pay no ticket, and that's why these free-loading
foreign diplomats should be dragged out of their cars and beaten like
the renegade outlaws they are."

Replace "ticket" with "run company and the nation into a ditch."
Replace "pay it" with "get no bonus."

Those who got the bonuses should keep it, but that doesn't mean that the
American people can't go over their house and beat them to recoup our
money. Violence solves nothing, but in this case it would be cathartic.
When are we, the people, gonna take back our country.

Paul Krugman, I link to him almost weekly, hits it out of the park
again. He excoriates the "centrists" of the Senate who doomed the
stimulus bill to almost comical mediocrity. I just wish he named names.
Collins (ME) *cough* Nelson (NE) *cough* Fools the both of them. Fools
for believing them.

Obama's turn to the middle is terribly misguided. If I wanted some
centrist ideology in my president, then I would've voted for Mrs.
Clinton. There's nothing to gain in inviting Republicans to sing
Kumbaya with you. They're busy sharpening their knives. You dance with
them and you'll have a shiv in your back. The centrists are the ones
playing the dance music.

The shrill one is back. Damn right, Paul. Damn right.

Paul Krugman today:

"It's time for Mr. Obama to go on the offensive. Above all, he must not
shy away from pointing out that those who stand in the way of his plan,
in the name of a discredited economic philosophy, are putting the
nation's future at risk."

I for one think the Democrats should be explaining to the nation how
deceptively evil Republican economic philosophy is. It's meant to
cripple government, but since government is the only entity that can get
us out of our current economic quagmire, it's meant to cripple the
nation, and by doing so destroy her.

The dolts preach tax cuts in times of prosperity. They preach tax cuts
in times of trouble. The fucks preach tax cuts for almost anything.
Tax cuts will cure your cancer.

They abhor government spending. Aren't we trapped in this terrible
economy because nobody wants to spend money on anything: businesses on
employees, consumers on goods, banks on their debt. But who's going to
do the spending now? Only the government can. It's capable of creating
the jobs just look at the fucks of the righ-wing noise machine. Without
government they'll only be howling about the weather.

My anger to this current affairs is because the Democrats and the
president should be shouting from the rooftops about the discredited
notions of Republican party. Eight fracking years and four before
Clinton should be enough to make the case. The president should, and
that's why this commity looking for bipartisanship is bogus. You
shouldn't be friends with people who are outright batshit crazy.

Dear President Obama,

Was it really just three weeks ago that hope was in the air? Now,
you're playing with this idea of "bipartisanship" and it's killing you
in helping to fix the economy. If you haven't realized in your two
decades that Republicans are not meant to govern, I hope you realize it
now as the economic stimulus bill stalls in the legislator. Republican
governance means destroying the government. They do it be doing bad
policy, and when out of lead roles, they do it by stopping anything from
going forward. We're fucked and they like it that way.

Signed,
Disappointed and disillusioned
