While it's fairly easy to dislike the Bush administration, I'm not so sure that president Ahmadinejad is such a swell guy. When choosing historical figures to liken Irans president to... why is "Hitler" such a poor choice to make?

That being said, everybody's doin' it. Hell, in this one article... they quote Chavez likening Bush to Hitler, and mention Rumsfeld having likened Chavez to Hitler. Perhaps comparing someone/something to Hitler & co. is getting a little worn.

Anyways, on a completely unrelated note... the Soup Nazi opens up in Toronto.

Happy Belated B'day Beck

mmmm... juicy pussy.

What's the twitching like Alison? When I had a really bad bout of insomnia I got an involuntary twitch of the eyelids, upper and lower. It 's called eyelid-myokymia, and was really annoying. Basically it went away when I was finally able to catch up on sleep. Have you been missing out on a bunch of sleep lately?

Seymour Hersh's ado-generating article about US plans for Iran, uh, THE IRAN PLANS. Some interesting stuff, including a bit of an insight into the self-image the Bush administration has:

There is a growing conviction among members of the United States military, and in the international community, that President Bush’s ultimate goal in the nuclear confrontation with Iran is regime change. Iran’s President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has challenged the reality of the Holocaust and said that Israel must be “wiped off the map.” Bush and others in the White House view him as a potential Adolf Hitler, a former senior intelligence official said. “That’s the name they’re using.

Well, alison, let me give you an example. In eric's post here, he tries to use an image, but the server won't let it be displayed on other websites. He could, then, upload the image to the space I've provided, and then link to it to display the image in a post.

Basically, it's my minor solution to the problem of needing webspace to post an image.

Although the point about seeing other people's (for lack of a better term) galleries is well taken. I'll see what I can whip up.

oh, so, Paras, just for shits and giggles, I uploaded an image. what's the point? is there some magic location where I can see other peoples' images, or are they mine and mine only... and theirs and theirs only (if you follow me)? I'm not sure I understand the reason for this option... however kind of you to allow us to personalize the space and all....

hmm... what a shame, I developed wheezing after one of those super fun "run as many laps as you possibly can" phys ed classes at 15 too... instead, I simply got diagnosed with athletically induced asthma and pneumonia... all at once. no plastic leaf lodged in my lungs... I was partially drowning. woo...


by the way, happy birthday Beck


day number 8 of consecutive eyebrow twitchiness is about to conclude. how the fuck do I make this stop?
