‘We are reliably certain that a few years ago al-Qaeda was planning a strike on a New York financial center so we are NOW parking dogs and cops at the Stock Exchange and important banks.’ Yo, dipwad! al-Qaeda has already attacked a New York financial institution…The World Trade Center!!!! Or did that slip your mind? So in one tiny way Ridge and his gang are correct, the info they have was somewhat accurate 4 YEARS AGO. I’ll bet this ridiculous fuss and bluster going on right now is giving al-Qaeda the best laugh they’ve had in years. I’d laugh too if it weren’t so pathetic. The stunning depth of this administration’s stupidity is frightening. And while Bush and company jiggered the election, there were actual votes cast for The Shrub. I know I tend to vote for people I believe are smarter than I am. So I have to wonder about the brain capacity of those who believed Bush was the right guy to hire. At their fundraisers do they set the tables with plastic spoons because forks are too complicated and dangerous to handle? Sheesh. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In garden news (this year’s garden, btw, I didn’t have a garden four years ago so am unable to get all fussed about it now) the big event is the broccoli harvest. Each plant has produced good sized heads. They aren’t a uniform dark green like Birdseye broccoli, but no matter. Wolf and I shared the first bell pepper from the garden the other day and it was way more flavorful than the grocery store kind. Party-colored or not I’m betting my broccoli will beat frozen broccoli hands down. Despite being gnawed to the ground by that dratted groundhog, the zucchini is doing what zucchini does best. It’s gone gonzo. The vine came back right away and is now threatening the rest of the garden. Under the broad leaves there are a couple dozen baby zucchinis. Great. Now I’ll be that Crazy Tomato and Zucchini Lady. While I’m talking about zucchini I’ll share an interesting tid-bit I read the other day. The article suggested that if one is going to use fruits and vegetables for personal pleasure they should be covered with a condom. Apparently the traces of pesticides and the natural sugars can upset the vaginal environment resulting in yeast infections and inflamation. Just a little FYI. I know I’d die a 1,000 deaths if I had to go to my gyno and explain that my zorch had a bad case of carrot contamination. I’m going to get washed and dressed now. I have to be ready and on the alert, Tom Ridge just announced the Japanese have a plan to bomb Pearl Harbor. Disgusted as ever, ~LA
