Do you ever read the news and wonder if it’s all a big joke? It’s happening more and more often with me.
- The US Government is fighting to keep meatpackers from checking more meat for mad cow
- The US Government set up a news station in the Middle East, more or less for spewing our propaganda. So far, so good.
- It turns out that it began airing terrorist rants against Jews
- Why? Because no one running the station speaks Arabic.
- Where are our Arabic translators?

It’s like a bad dream, that also just doesn’t quite make sense. But then you wake up and realize it’s all real.
I read news like that at it hits me – the reason I can’t get a head in the world is that I have a brain, I can think and I don’t want to do stupid things.
