idiots of the evening
in tapatia, late. 3AM. packed house. cyn and i are fresh out of the agora. entertainment? some fresh-out-the-club, slick black shirt wearing jackass with 3 young ladyfriends starts hooping. yes, hooping. whoop whoop. this woulda been just slightly annoying if it only lasted 30 seconds or so-but it went on for at least 30 min. after 5 min-a shouting match began with the redneck in the \ 'stros cap at the far end. one telling the other to shutup, the blackshirted jackass just whooping away. hysterical, annoying, funny. they eventually left, but not before one of his hot friends apologized for her incredibly uncool friend. i replied, no need to apologize, this capped off a night of interesting shite.

texas letters: hearts, minds, etc...
check this old post out-may 2k4. slightly uneven though- but hey, 2.5 yrs. canthe facts remain mstly the same-unemployment rate of 40 per cent rather than 78. seems i was a Bit optimistic, though-especially as to the swift implementain, er, acceptance, of capitalism. i was wrong in thinking the us had any intention in reacting to conditions on the ground early on. i was naive enough 2 think the us might acutally fund reconstruction sufficiently. i was naive 2 think that idealism was the proper prism with which to view this war, to think it might somehow work out. 3.5 yrs, 75K Iraqis dead, 2700 americans. 600 billion dollars spent, 18 billion of that was reconstruction. what a sad ratio of guns to aid that is.
