"If anybody shoots at me, I'm gonna kill him. Then I'm gonna kill his family and burn his damn house down." Will Munny of Missouri


There are things in the news that a body gets really tired of in a hurry.....y’know what I’m talking about...the weirdos who kidnap ‘n kill little children ‘n hide their bodies so the world c’n go a little nuts worrying about them....I think when they find people that do that kind of stuff they should just put them down the way they do mad dogs....I don’t see any point in torturing them...prob’ly that’s how they got weird in the first place, somebody abusing them when they were children...
And pirates.....they’re big in the news right now ‘n I’m weary of them having their fifteen minutes of fame...
I don’t really care what the rest of the world does about the pirates of Somalia but as far as the USA is concerned, we shouldn’t negotiate with them...We need t’remember Tom Jefferson ‘n the Barbary Coast pirates of yore.....what was it he said, “Millions for defense, not one red cent for tribute.”....well, sumthing like that.....
We should give them a short time period, ten or fifteen minutes, to release their hostage unharmed or suffer the consequence, to wit: Kill them. Go to their homes and kill their families and burn their houses. Kill anyone who comes to their defense and burn their houses. Salt the earth where they lived....
Ah well, it’s Friday again, ain’t it? Still, the sun is shining, the birds are singing (well, the chickens are making chicken noises)....what’s the line? “God’s in His heaven, all’s right with the world.”......That is t’say, that all’s right with the world if you have a job or an income...
if you ain’t facing cataclysmic medical bills ‘n if you ain’t about t’get kicked out’a your campsite.....ah what the hell...look on the sunny side...if you watch ‘network’ news, ev’rything is just hunky-dory...the stock market is going back up, the stimulus is gonna put money in your pocket, ‘n all those bad guys at General Motors are gonna be denied unemployment.....I wonder what kind of unemployment check you c’d get if you’ve been making multi-millions of dollars a year in salary ‘n even more in bonuses...I understand that Warren Buffett lost more last year than most countries are able to budget...still, I bet he won’t miss a meal....which in this over-fed country is not a big deal, I guess....I think the rest of the world thinks we prob’ly got it coming....they’ve been missing meals for a long time so it’s doubtful that we’ll get much sympathy.....not that I’m looking for sympathy y’understand....I’m about forty pounds or so overweight so it ain’t like I’ve been missing any meals...I feel like I’m whining...d’ya think I’m whining?...I don’t want to whine.....like that Arlo Guthrie line, “I don’t want a pickle, I just want to ride on my motorcycle....”
‘Cept I don’t have a motorcycle...I do have a pickle however.......
