Funny moment of the day
Apr. 16th, 2003 01:15 pmAd Mundo Exteriore,
I just got this spam mail with the subject line: "MY DOG HAS FLEAS, DOES YOURS?" What the...?! O_O
I just thought I'd share that with you all.
I've started listening to NPR, thanks to
trivetmonger who told me the station, and the BBC World News Service was reporting on Iraq and other matters. One of the other matters concerned Michael Jordan failing to lead the Washington Wizards to the NBA playoffs and...well, let me just say that it's pretty strange to hear people speaking about basketball with posh British accents.
Actually, I had this rant all prepared on how the UN is being marginalized in U.S.' plans for post-war reconstruction (especially with the formation of a separate American weapons inspections team) and how infuriating it is to find out that your worst expectations were all proven true and...I'm more angry about the current behavior of the U.S. than I was when it went to war. Honestly, I was hoping at least the Bush administration would allow some nominal face-save for the UN, but this may end up putting more than fifty years of progress down the drain! Argh! (Will elaborate with ridiculous metaphors later. You are warned.)
I have this weird story idea for retelling that folktale about the weaver and the cowherd. With shifting perspectives to boot. Most likely scenario? It will never be written.
...Tari
