There is so much to talk about, but for some reason, none of it is interesting.
There is the story of Miss California, Carrie Prejean. It turns out her parents separated when she was very young, possibly before she was born. Does she have the same father as her sister? Mom and Dad spent the next few years in a nasty custody battle. Now Miss Prejean is fighting to defend marriage. PG wonders what Miss Prejean thinks she is defending?
There is the story of the swine flu sign cartoon A blogger named Jasmyne Cannick thought the cartoon was racist, and asked her readers to comment. PG took a look at the cartoon, and went to the site of the artist. PG wanted to print the cartoon, and is squeamish about copyrights. It turns out the artist is an African American. PG got his permission.
Tomorrow is mothers day. This is a very profitable day for certain industries. It also is difficult for people like PG. His mother left the planet ten years ago, and is seriously missed. PG has not reproduced on his own. To him, mothers day is a day to be ignored.
There is the fog of war. The mercenaries in Iraq are not working out. Nor is the revenge against Afghanistan. Those drone attacks are not going to bring back the people we lost on 911. Pakistan is on the verge of collapse, or maybe it isn’t. And our country talks about American Idol and the new Star Trek.
