Guess I have not been on these pages in a few days. Life seems so grim on the international scene and national politics is ugly and baseball at the Oakland coliseum is ugly (with debris and chair being tossed by fans). What is this world coming to? Have we all lost any sense of decency? Doesn't anyone care about their neighbors or anyone else anymore for that matter. Too many people seem be only interested in making money although some people just need to survive and the Bush administration is not helping there. Oh, they help their rich buddies get richer but they won't do much for the little person because it costs too much and there is no federal money for various programs. Well, if they would stop wasting billions of dollars in Iraq there would be money for health care and other programs but then what would poor Halliburton, Cheney, and others do. Oh, da poor tings! Arrghhhhhhhhhh.......... (Somebody get me a barf bag.)
