'At a news conference afterward, the chancellor said, "We absolutely agree that Iran must say no to any kind of nuclear weapon -- full stop."

The president softened his tone on the possibility of a U.S. attack on Iran. In Belgium the day before, Bush said the idea of an impending American strike on Iran was "ridiculous," but "all options are on the table."'


Why can't he just be straightforward about issues? Is the idea of a strike ridiculous or is it one of many options on the presumably cluttered table? If he had at least said that a strike was not impending but not inconceivable, he would at least look like he could toe a line.

Dance, Dubya, Dance.

Ok. This will have to be the last 'clipping' from the apparent teen-pregnancy board for tonight. The rest have been funny because the girls posting them are incredibly Dim-Witted and Naive. And Loose. Definitely Loose. But this one is creepy in a very subtle way.

Now, I realise this woman has some issues and sees this as a way to circumvent those and have another child. But seriously: there are better ways to try to adopt an unwanted child than to advertise on the teen pregnancy boards. Maybe what she and her husband should consider is adopting one of the TEENAGERS and seeing if they can screw them up any worse than it sounds like they are already. Now THAT'S a task worth undertaking.

Hi, My name is Stacy and I am a mother of two children, ages 11 and 7. I, unfortunately am no longer able to conceive, and my husband and I are yearning for another child. If you are in here and are scared and feel as if you have no one to talk to and no means of raising a baby by yourself, please email me before you think about adoption or (heaven forbid) abortion. We will take your baby in and love him or her forever. Please consider us an option and don't be scared, I too was a single, unwed mother at the age of 22 and I was mortified. Life does work out for the best tho, so don't worry your little head!! :) I can be a good ear too if necessary...good luck to you and your little one.

"i am a 17 year old and i don't know what is going on with me. The last lime me and my boyfriend had sex was in april. and then he went to jail from a set up by friends and i was worried before about being pregnant cause after we had sex i was bleeding and it's never happened before. and i heard that you concieve when that happens. I then got my period and thought everything was fine and then i started getting really sick like: vomitting, headaches, gas, unusual things to me. My whole body aches. i don't know i am just scared. I don't have any clue so if anyone can help me please. my parents will kill me and i would rather have an abortion but then my boyfriend would kill me. He asked me to marry him so i know we will be together and that is no problem. i am just not ready."

Proof that ALL girls should be on birth control from the moment puberty thinks about starting. If you can't spell 'pregnant' or 'wasn't' properly, you should NOT be doin' it like they do on the Discovery channel. Fucktards.

Hunter S. Thompson is dead.

I don't know how to start talking about the Ani show the other night. It was so intense, just getting to see her on stage. Shut up. I'm not talking from the crazed-fan stand point. I mean seeing her just get so into the show that she was bouncing all over the stage. And her reaction to the crowd is so genuine and unaffected that you feel like she's doing her first show ever and is really and truly surprised to see people connecting with what she has to say. She stopped several times to just talk to the audience and she had some good points. Some were just about politics in general, along the lines of "if you don't like what's happening to your world, change it." She made a point about how everyone wants to see changes made in the government but we just sit around and say "what're we gonna dooooooo?" and nothing happens. And what has to happen is that 'we' have to find the person or persons who CAN effect change and stand by them. And sooner or later, when everyone comes around and stands by the people that are trying to improve our states as human beings, no one will be over there.

It reminded me how much I wanted to be involved in something that would make a difference around me. I know everyone makes a difference in the lives of those around them. I know that just being a 'good' person and treating others with respect and kindness brings about a change one can't measure. But I want to do more. I want to be passionate about a cause.

Blargh. I'm sure this will all wear off. I don't want it to but that's what happens. If one doesn't take immediate action, passions and convictions wane and are just shrugged off.

Today was a good day. Got to spend time with the boys and see Levi... he's gotten bigger! We met our future sister-in-law today. She seems nice. Quiet at first. Once she's around the Roberts family for a while, that'll wear off. I know this. heh.

This is the entry where I gush about seeing Andrew Bird and Ani last night.

Unfortunately, I have no time to gush. So hopefully I'll have time to edit later. One thing, tho. Andrew's music was the kind that makes you think that maybe, just maybe, this world is still full of enough beauty to bring children into it.

While I was at work yesterday, the eye doctor's office called and told me my glasses had come in. Yay! So, I went and got them and wore them the rest of the day. I hope I get used to them. It feels weird having something sitting on my nose all the time. My nose has always been super-sensitive to stuff like that. Anyway. Much easier to focus on things although I still feel like my right eye is doing all the work. Maybe that's normal? I don't know. I guess it could be. One eye is bound to dominate the other or something like that. Anyway. Much easier to read and watch TV now that I gots specs. I s'pose now I have no real excuse for not playing more video games. Anthony keeps telling me it's ok that I don't since it's not a 'priority'. Heh. That sounds so funny. Dishes, laundry, vacuuming... those are priorities. I'd never even consider a game to be in the list of priorities. Not really. Anyway. I guess that'll be my new reason to never get around to playing.

Althooooooooooooough. Tetris. I bet my glasses will make it easier to play Tetris for hours on end. Must try that tonight.

Yoga classes have started again at the community center down the street from me. They're $5 a class! Tab said she'd take 'em with me if they were too expensive so I guess I should call her today if I want to go sign up later and take Thursday's class. I bet she'll back out, tho. She's always got so much going on that she's bound to have something else to do. Who knows. But I definitely want to go.
