So the deadline has passed, and the 24hr news stations are freaking out, they’ve got their cameras fixed on mosque domes and presidential palaces hoping for a grand ol kinetic shot of Strangelove droppings … you could go to your (favorite) online news source and just keep hitting refresh — the headline would change every minute of so … troops amassed on the border … troops humming old Madonna melodies … troops missing home … whatever the fuck. And really, its not something to joke about, but then again …
Insanity, maybe. I’m between shifts, prepping up to go to job # 2: Bartending, the Ultimate Moonlighting Gig, and am curious to see the general sentiment and feeling (and “vibe”, if you will) of the customers, especially as bombs light Baghdad up all green for us on CNN Headline News … “getting bombed” may be the poor pun of the evening … I may bring my survival knife … a headline I saw today said, “Baghdad: sleepwalking its way into history” … huh. I had no idea we were contending with a rogue crew of crooked somnambulists! Well, fucking A, let’s blow some shit up!
Hey, for shits and giggles, check out this army movie we made this weekend in the car … it’s Quicktime, and doesn’t have sound yet, but it seemed appropriate.
