I don't know about the rest of you, but after this election year, no matter what the results look like on Election Night, I'm getting plastered. Wheee! (I may use that as an excuse to call in sick the next day, even though I've never really had anything worse than a little headache the day after.)

Prime Minister Tony Blair denied Wednesday that he misrepresented intelligence about Iraqi weapons before the war, rejecting growing demands in Parliament that he apologize. *sigh*

American pop star Britney Spears said on Wednesday she wants to change her name after marrying 26-year-old dancer Kevin Federline last month. *rubs temples* You know what new stories about Britney Spears and Kevin Federline make me think about anymore? That scene in Airplane! where everybody lined up to smack some sense into the hysterical lady. Uh-huh.

Hee! Baby koala!

Load of pig guts spills across an intersection in Arkansas. You know, considering Arkansas was usually right after Pennsylvania on the list of the worst roads in America, you'd think pig guts would actually improve the roads ... you know, after they filled the potholes and festered into hardness. Yeah, they'd smell, but still.

All right, enough links. Off to write.

EDIT: The world faces a surge in extreme weather events because of global warming and governments must act immediately to avert disaster, Britain's chief scientist said on Tuesday. *whimper* Erm, I'm sorry? (Maybe I shouldn't pick up The Day After Tomorrow on Friday. It may give my apocalyptic mutant abilities baaaaaad ideas.)

"If society will allow that". Hee. Sure, they'll allow it, but they'll laugh at her if she does it.

Oh, yeah, and she'll be ready next year, when she's twenty-three. I can just imagine her achieving enough maturity for motherhood by next year, can't you?

Didn't you hear? There's just as much growth and progress in the ages between 22 and 23 as there is between 1 and 2. It's a little known maturity spurt. Sadly, this spurt doesn't prevent everyone from sniggering whenever they say things like "Britney and her - heh - 'husband'."

She's only a year younger than I am? I'm depressed that she's a year younger than I am, with more wealthy and money than I'll ever have. And I'm even more depressed that somebody about my age is acting so immaturely.
