It has been a very, very, VERY SH!TTY weekend for us and US..:( First of all, we lost a dear friend.. Maybe from a broken heart.. At least that's what probably speeded him along to the "other side".. At least imo.. Maybe I'm wrong, probably am.. But I don't know.. Second of all, we could have lost our country.. At least from my perspective.. The tragedy in Arizona, just brought higher vitriol and more vile towards each other, cliches I know, but I don't know a better word.. Just more finger pointing at each other with NO TIME OUT for introspection, self examination,etc.. No cooling off period.. It just shows where we are at. NO apologies, NO NOTHING.. Not good.. NOT GOOD at all :( The only damn good thing so far this weekend has been football and that is so far down the list of my priorities but I am still looking for any hope in this clusterfuck, we call our current society.. The Seahawks won, Green Bay won and HOPEFULLY Nevada will win now.. And speaking of "Clusterfuck Nation", I started reading "World Made by Hand" by Kunstler.. A nice, easy read with some tips for those that will need them if it truly comes to a gigantic CF, which it probably will... Just based upon my little reading on SI today..:(
