I know that things have been looking bleak for awhile now. What with the failing economy and all. But here are some crazy things that make me smile.
AC/DC put out an album after eight years. Metallica puts out an album that doesn't suck, in fact it rocks old school. Smashing Pumpkins are back together. So far signs are pointing to the apocalypse. Then after about a billion years Guns and Roses finally are going to release Chinese Democracy. Uh oh, does that mean zombies are about to rise from the grave. No.
We got a shining beacon of light in the form of President elect Barack Obama. When he was announced as the new President you could almost hear the collective sigh of relief from around the world. I have heard some republicans say that they are sad for our country now. Let's think about that. You guys got eight years of George Bush and we had to sit back and watch him slowly destroy the country. McCain would have continued down that path. Republicans will say that that is ridiculous statement. Is it really? When you sit back and look at the numbers it would have actually gotten worse. Ten billion a month in war spending that would have continued. An energy plan that would have shelled out 800+ billion. Where exactly did you republicans think that money was going to come from? Magic? No. It would have come from higher taxes for everyone. It was either ignorance or blind faith. There was no possibility for McCain to deliver on his promises. So now you say you are sad. Why exactly? Are you sad that someone wants to actually try to fix our country? Are you sad because the world already likes us better for finally electing the right person to do the job? Are you only sad because your candidate didn't win and all you wanted was for him to win so you could say "we won"? If you want to be bitter, fine, just shut your mouth crawl in a hole and leave the rest of us alone. It is now time for us to fucking rock.

The Chinese Democracy thing had me thinking apocalypse but thankfully I was wrong.
I'll never understand Neo Cons. I'll never understand Christians who don't want to help their fellow man.
We are never leaving our bubble of humanity. At least the rest of America got it right for once.
