Miscellani

Some random thoughts as I approach a fully unplanned weekend, well except for some Sunday stool leg cutting. 

Win - Win

Apparently things in Syria have really dissolved.  On the upside we have Hezbollah and Al Qaeda killing each other – no downside there. 

Prepare to Assume the Position

Private Manning, traitor, was finally sentenced for his crimes this week.  We all got to learn what a troubled young man he is.  He has filed for permission to be treated like a woman during his prison sentence.  I don’t think that will be a big problem once he meets his cell mate.  Reaping what is sown. 

You May Want to Hang on to That

The Patriots literally got their ass handed to them last night in Detroit.  That should bring them back to earth just in time to get ready for the regular season.  I wouldn’t want to be in a Foxboro film room this week.

I had to sit through one more hand wringing session with the politicians yesterday.  The architect of most of the pain still won’t acknowledge his responsibilities in creating the mess.  This weekend the changes go into effect that will hopefully fix it.   

Scary

Madonna has created yet another look for herself.  I guess looking like a demonic flesh eating corpse was what she was going for.  Yikes!

August is usually the month where all the bad summer movies come out but this year its been a bit of a surprise with some pretty good flicks.  Of course that could be more of a comment of the dearth of July quality this year.

So my randomized stream of consciousness is now sated.  At least I have a slice of Zorba’s prime rib to look forward to tonight.
