Boom boomer zoomer loomer.

The weather here is like a perpetual motion machine, always moving, but never really getting anywhere. It moves in a seemingly endless progression, with both thick grey cloud cover and humidity steadily increasing, as if building up to a thunderstorm that would break the humidity and leave us with a clear, sunny day. But, just when it seems it can't get any more humid or overcast, it rains (pours) for about ten minutes, then, as if kicked back down a few notches by a divine foot, goes back to the beginning of the cycle--the gathering thunderstorm. It is perpetually approaching a climax that it never quite reaches.

I guess, in that way, London weather is more like tantric sex. Like Sting calmly building up towards an orgasm before somehow allowing all of the built up energy to recede, then climbing almost to the peak once again. And, much like it must be to have sex with Sting, the weather here is miserable.


Sweet: the strange thing about that article is that it doesn't really make me mad--which is an even worse sign. It's just that this administration has committed so many underhanded, secretive, and downright evil acts for their own interests that "agreeing to appear on a talk show that refuses to license on a neutral basis the content he contributed" seems pretty mild. Everyone knows (or should) that the media in the u.s. has a vested interest in whoever's in power; not just so they can get access again, but so their giant parent companies stay friends with the people who count.

"Is vigorous debate over matters as important as going to war less important than protecting his image?" Yeah, this president has gone out of his way to ensure 'vigorous debate' over going to war. You know what? That does make me mad. But mostly at the naivete of the reporter who thinks this is even worth asking at this point.

I think I've stumbled on a way to allow us to use this as an mp3 blog, and post songs for each other to download. I'll do a test run later this evening. As for now, I'm making salsa to go with the carnitas I'm also making, in what I hope will be tasty, tasty, tacos.
