Politics. Yeah, I dunno.

The crappy thing about living through interesting times is that you don't get to angst over your own boring existence as much as you'd like to. Here I am, with all sorts of Personal Issues going on, and then the most wanted man in the world is killed, and my country goes through its sixteenth federal election in six years, and then it's all about "is it moral to have any man killed instead of brought to justice, was it even possible to bring him to justice and what is justice anyway, will this make him a martyr, is it right to feel relief and to celebrate the death of a human being no matter how evil and insane, can anyone really blame America for breaking out into a huge street party over this, what would we think of the Arab world doing the same if Obama were assassinated, and will I have to spend the next four two years getting pamphlets adorned with John Baird's ferocious grin asking me if I agree that convicted pedophiles should be punished instead of given a hug and a balloon like the other parties believe and aren't the Conservatives great, and..." ::sigh:: dude, I just wanted to think about cleaning my basement this week, you know? And maybe working on Justin's French a little more.
