I have said it before and I will say it again, John McCain should have fired his entire political operation months ago. Look at that scarf!

I guess while in Neiman Marcus spending $115,000.00 she asked the sales clerk "I need a political scarf, the one for my party. Is that the one with the Elephant or the Donkey?"
and the good clerk said hiding the smile "The donkey, definitely the donkey. You betch'ya."

... and that angel had pea soup on his chin.

John McCain got an endorsement today that is right out of the Onion. John McCain has said he will be tough on terror. He wont come home from Iraq in defeat. John McCain is going to crack down on rogue states like Iran and their all powerful president. So it is no surprise that McCain should receive the endorsment of...al-Qaeda?

This requires presence of an impetuous American leader such as McCain, who pledged to continue the war till the last American soldier," the message said.
"Then, al-Qaeda will have to support McCain in the coming elections so that he continues the failing march of his predecessor, Bush."
"If al-Qaeda carries out a big operation against American interests," it said, "this act will be support of McCain because it will push the Americans deliberately to vote for McCain so that he takes revenge for them against al-Qaeda. Al-Qaeda then will succeed in exhausting America till its last year in it."

What a chilling retelling of The Emperor's New Cloths.

Never has the 70's been so monumentally awesome.

This is my 300th journal. I think a month ago I had 250, but I am working hard to make semi-quality posts for you (e:Paul) so we meet our quota.

I have been so busy this summer I didn't get a chance to take as many photos as I would have liked, but here are a few I took with my homemade pinhole camera. I took all of these on that walkway ontop the tide break on the Niagara river.

It makes nice little abstractions from objects on account of the lack of focus. Often the lens will be dirty, and being just a pinhole it gets some cool color anomalies.



But sometimes a regular landscape looks like something soaked in gin.




This winter, I need to do more indoor photos. Which means bigger, badder light bulbs!

I am still working on costume ideas. I fear that I am an idea man and incapable of executing anything I put my brain too.

1)Dungeon Master: no, not the kind wearing leather chaps. Rather, get together a hideous costume with a nerdy t-shirt, a fake beard, and a bottle of "the dew" and there ya go, DM.

2)DMILF. As I posted earlier, doing a sexy Dungeon Master could be hilarious, but I don't want to glue a four sided die into my belly button. And again, chaps might enter into it.

3)Wall Street Hobo. After the crash, Manhatten Jones decided to hang up his brief case and ride the rails, searchin for that big hand out in the skies. I like this costume because it gives a good excuse to be too drunk.
