'This shit' and other stuff

[misscam]

See, the irony is that what they need to do is get Syria to get Hezbollah to stop doing this shit and it's over, says Bush, not knowing the mic was on. 'This shit', quite.

Norwegian evacuation effort from Lebanon stepped up

We're apparently helping some Americans, French and Swedes as well. Apparently, the ship had a greater capacity than said in that article, so we're helping other nations out. Which is nice. Good on the crew, too.

But of course, the Lebanese people have no such luck. Always the civilians who get screwed, I'm telling you. Feh.

In not so depressing news, Norway's ranked well in a tourist survey and a tourist catches huge fish in Norwegian fjord. Heh, Norway. You're a cute thing.

So I have written over 4000 words on "An Adventure in Norway" (my little post-Doomsday thingie) just setting up my story and that's not even covering the first year of a planned sixty years timespan. Hum. I'm not sure that's a good sign or a bad one...

But writing sure helps in not thinking about this shit in Lebanon or that shit in Iraq or the mosty forgotten shit everywhere else, that's for sure.

Lots of shit, yes. And who knows how much more shit can be dug up in another year-and-a-half of Bush? *sigh*
On a brighter note, who knew halibuts got that big?

Yeah, it's a pretty impressive size, I have to say.

But hey, at least you're over halfway done with the dude.

True. AND we never have to deal with him again - at least as President. Though it's depressing that enough of America saw fit to reelect him.

That is the biggest fish I've ever seen.

My writing keeps me busy trying to remember things from 8 years ago... total pain in the butt trying to remember if a song would have been out, or what news would have been known.(thank god for Wikipedia)

Oh yeah. Short term memory is pain enough, stuff several years back? Forget about it.

I just saw it on the news and hahaha bravo there, Mr. President. Ain't that totally shit.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Impressive way of making all the news, though.

What's sad is, the US media is scrabbling all over the "shit" -- headlines everywhere! -- when they can't be bothered to report anything that's actually going on in Syria or, for that matter, anywhere else.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

But that's so far away and requires research into the situation and shit.

And it doesn't have anything to do with Angelina Jolie or Brad Pitt or shit like that. You know, the stuff we Americans *really* care about.

And here I was thinking the world revolved around those two, not just the US.

Crazy Bush. I want to go to Norway (Actually, around the world)! Poor fish. It's a good thing to just be setting up the story. Means lots and lots of fic to read.
