Wisconsin, Michigan, Japan, radiation, earthquake survival kits (suitcases), the spiraling down of the USA, it's overwhelming.  I am astonished at what's going on here in this country, barely making the "news." 

I know I'll leave California in at least a few years, there's no getting ahead here. That thought has been in the universe for a while now.

And in another amount of years, I think I could be happy in another country. I'm hearing great things about Australia and New Zealand. Or even Panama.

Events seem to be happening rapidly. I can't figure out what the neocons are up to.

Things always seem to go in cycles where nature and humans all seem to be behaving disastrously all at the same time in different places. Sometimes I just think all we can do is hang on and wait for the cycle to... well.. cycle again.

I think it was Ben Franklin who said , "in a democracy, the people get the kind of government they deserve". Now we'll have to see after two years of the Republifascists showing their asses which way the pendulum swings. However, the fact is we undertax corporations and the rich, which means our governments, state and federal, are drowning in debt, and neither party seems able to either willing or able to tackle that fact.

Don't spend much time worrying about the neo-cons or teabaggers. We always know what they're thinking because they never shut the fuck up.

The Libyans have been crushed under the weight of Ghadaffi and the indecisive UN western cabal. On the media front Libya was a casualty of the Japanese disaster. I feel ashamed of my country for not helping.

New Zealaind looks cool but they too are on the ring of fire.
