I can’t dance to this
ooh. ooh, here’s a good idea.
”The people of Venezuela, not just the National Assembly, are giving this enabling power to the president of the republic,” said congresswoman Iris Varela, addressing the crowd. She then screamed, “Hooray! I’m obsolete!” and flashed the gathered throng of government supporters.
”We want to impose the dictatorship of a true democracy.”
right. if it works, somebody tell me.
edit: I just came back from lunch at the Owl, where the televisions either have ESPN, Fox News or Mexican soap operas on.
today was Fox News. they were talking about this. of course, outrage, and veiled predictions of the apocalypse. which is more or less a hysterical version of what I’m thinking, but it pisses me off, cause it’s the same news service that cheerleads whenever President Bush starts with his “I’m the decider” bullshit. everyone, assholes.
venezuelans, sweet simple venezuelans. well now we will be able to watch how a dictatorship happens in real-time. which is a good lesson for us, but in-time more of a painful lesson for them. i’d be making a five year plan right now if i lived there, to be getting the fuck out with as much money in my pocket as possible. so i could join enrique with his turn-key re-siding operation in the states.
my average work day for the past two weeks has been 11 hours. so i’ve been listening to a lot of the radio when i’m actually in my office. sample of what i’m listening to:
“bears droppin’ hitz like B 96, it’s half time refuel the tank, come out kick a field goal that’s three in the bank, why’s everyone so amplified-amplified? it’s the bears y’all, the bears y’all, the bears.”
i either love hip-hop, or think it’s the worst music ever.
i went to an authentic japanese restaraunt last night out in a fucking suburb. my companion taught english in japan for two years, so she ordered everything for me as i sat cross-legged and hoped that i was the only one that could smell my feet. she told me that they NEVER tip in japan when they go out to eat. it’s not part of the culture. well right on japan. and they made ‘Lost in Translation’ there!
can you tell i’m putting off doing work?
thank god you don’t live in egypt eh?
otherwise you too would be deemed “an apostate.”
