A comment made to Ron Suskind by a member of the Bush administration.
''We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality -- judiciously, as you will -- we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.''
Puts it all in perspective...

While I sat at work today wondering how I could slack off while not making it blatantly obvious that I just do not want to be here and trying to get away with doing as little as I can whilst still actually doing my job. Erstwhile wondering and praying for it to not snow in the coming days of forecasted artic weather or if it is going to snow please blanket this country with like 15 inches of the stuff so for once I will have a quite legitimate excuse as to why I cannot come to work instead of making my monthly excuse and calling in sick with the dreaded “man flu” also known as I really couldn’t be bothered to get out of bed so I didn’t and I wanted to sit around in my trackies all day watching cartoons and daytime talk shows which seem to only ever be about child pregnancy, bad children, bad parents or some kind of infidelity. Still it beats the heck out of going to work.
As for the racism thing I would really rather not touch that one with a barge pole. Since we all know that I could on for hours then, avoidance of hot words such as “friends” and “racism” around me are not just cautionary but necessary. It’s like mentioning “Indian sprinter” and “Olympic 100m gold” in the same sentence around Dips.
As for the anything to do with the Bush Administration, I would rather not think about the man that could be destined to instigate the chain of events that brings about the end of the world. The doomsday clock is after all at 5 minutes to midnight and I for one am really bricking it, despite not having a clue what that really means (clarification needed). Oh well since I only have 5 minutes left till the end of the world and this blog has to come full circle to make it look like I have some kind of point to this, so I’m not spending another minute in this “expletive deleted” office and im taking a day off and calling in sick regardless of whether it fricking snows or not to watch Trisha obviously! there is no better way to go out.
But suspect I will not do it and I fully expect that I will be sitting here again this time tomorrow doing the same thing I do everyday……………
Plan some sort of Office break which involves me getting out of here with full paid leave due to some freak accident which was in no way my fault but it was. Also it involves me not actually getting hurt and getting false medical documentation on the accident injury provided by the good looking doctor woman who I coerced with nothing but my charm and good looks into aiding me.
Ermmm…..sorry for wasting everyone time, we probably only have 4 minutes left now, ah crap.
Dude you need to get your own blog!!!
HAHA! reread the office break idea - that's genius. we'll have to plan a means of syphoning tons of money out from several swiss banks, then go across the border to the land of liberty and freedom - mexico!
