And The List Continues
Look, I didn't mean any disrespect with that CRAP idea. It was a crap idea. I was just using it as an example.
Also, don't get mad at me for trying to finally put a sort of hold/end/control of the madness to what happen with
The Attacks.
Listen, I don't swear except for when I'm stressed or mad. But I am tired of all of this shit.
It goes on and on and on. I have dreams about it. I see meaningless reports on T.V. about, "Oh, we nearly have him now." Yeah? You've been saying that for the last 3 freaking months. Or maybe it was two. I don't know. It's just wearing me down. I'll forget about it for a while, days even. Then I see something that'll trigger it. The worst part is that everyone else seems to have already moved on. That they're already cool with it or come to grips with it or okay with it or whatever.
It's not over. It's not ever, ever going to be over. You mark my words. In fifty years, if we haven't blown ourselves up by then, they will still be searching for Bin Laden. I don't care if he's dead. They said that Castro would probably be dead too and he's not. Although, I don't really have much of a problem with Castro. In fact, our descendents probably won't have much of a problem with Bin Laden. But they'll keep running the freaking news reports about how they have almost finally caught him. And for what? For some age old fogies (us) who still want to see him burned at the stake for what he did to us fifty freaking years ago. Personally, I don't think that will do anyone any good. Except maybe a couple of us old fogies sleeping easier.
Face it. Everyone who has the power up in the gov't or whatever to control these events will probably be dead in 50 years. I mean, I'll be 67, which isn't that old mind you. But these people are all like 40-something or 50-something or even 60-something.
Listen.
R.I.P.
That doesn't mean I forget about it or anything. It's just a sort of closure.
