Not only that but 2012 is right around the corner. Add to that a rumor I heard about dogs and cats living together and the outlook is certainly grim…

Actually, I’m pretty sure it’s supposed to be sung like the _Two and a Half Men_ title song.

There’s too many men! Too many people! Making too many problems!

Personally, I blame it all on the bees. This whole mess would never have happened if the bees weren’t disappearing. Like rats jumping off a sinking ship, those bees.

I think I’d like the story better if it was Clinton and Palin. The press possibilities for something like “Palin takes borrowed $20,000 dress to cleaners for a stubborn stain” or “Monica and Sarah tell all” would be more fun than “Obama to visit Washington D.C. in May.”

It don’t bother me none. I’ll just get raptured\* and go to heaven to live with Jesus. I hear he’s got hisself the latest Xbox _and_ Wii!

\*Or get ruptured and have to wear a truss. The print was all blurry on that Jack Chick tract, and I don’t rightly know exactly what he was sayin’ …

Ya know…today is not the best of days. I’m trying very hard not to be sick with the first cold of the winter and I feel miserable. And I gotta teach class today.

But I can always count on finding someone, somewhere on Teh Interwebz who is so fucked up in so many ways that I suddenly feel better, probably from the giant belly laugh I had at their expense. And today, it was you, **Camm**.
