Damm it gets old!

Just finished reading about the "progress" in Iraq (is that a new kind of IPod?), and wonder if the stage managing will ever come to a stop. I think not. The folks that gave us WWII got it right.

"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

- Joseph Goebbels

It appears that I am more cynical. I don't believe in an Easter Bunny anymore and sometimes in my solitude, wonder who stole my country and why. I guess it is like I tell my son when we discuss current affairs and the state of the state, "The one thing that I know of that is a positive, is at my age, IT IS NOT MY PROBLEM. Good luck son"

God its good to be old (If I cannot be King. "Ohhh Piss boy, come here!")

Be good to yourself and to those you love! See you next time.
