• Ok, it looks like motherfucking Mother Nature didn’t get the damn message to FUCKING STOP RAINING!!! It stormed last night. It stormed overnight as well, once again I was woken up by a storm. Today at work at about 2:40 in the pm the tornado sirens went off and we all had to go down to the first floor hallway or pile into a stairwell. I was one of those that was stuck in the stairwell, which was bad, but I was also next to this hot dude, which was good. We spent about an hour down there waiting for the damn storm to pass, if you can believe that. Finally we go back upstairs and everything was fine. The people that leave at 5 left and those of us stuck there until 6 stood. About 5:30, I see it was starting to get dark again, but nothing too bad, although I heard on the radio that there was a pretty fierce line of storms in the county next to us Kane Count, which was really close, in fact, we were only a few miles from Kane County. 10 minutes later, it got really dark. I could see the clouds and rain rolling in, it actually looked pretty cool. Although it had not started raining yet, I knew it would start very soon. I even told my co workers that it would probably start to pour right about 5:55, just in time for us to go home. Sure enough, 5:55 came and it was POURING, complete with heavy wind and frequent lightening. Earlier during the first round of storms, somebody said they saw lightening strike a light pole in the parking lot, so me being quite a big wuss, I was afraid to go to my car. But, I was not the only person, in fact, there was about 12 of us that were standing inside for 10 minutes waiting to leave. Finally, it slowed down a bit and I sprinted from the door to my car, which was the start of a very tense and stressful drive home. Traffic was actually pretty good, to be honest, it probably only took me 5 minutes longer to get home. But, constant sheets of rain came down literally the whole 35 minute drive home. In fact, I had my wipers on full power the whole way. Now granted, for part of the drive I was riding with the storm, but still, it was amazing that the rain could fall that hard for that long. Accompanying the rain was wind and lightening, making it a severe storm trifecta! And here we are 2 hours later and the rain is still falling (although not nearly as hard, now it is actually reasonable) and I can still hear some rumbles of thunder. And you know what? I still think we might get more.

  You might have missed this, but it is too damn important for me not to write about it. It seems that Bush is trying to sell weapons to the Saudi royal family. Yeah, this is a great idea, I wonder how this one will work out? Now keep in mind that Bush tried to use the history of WWII, Korea, and Vietnam to show why we can’t leave Iraq. Let’s indulge this genius for a second and say that he is right about leaving Iraq with regards to the things that happened in Vietnam. Thinking about history, didn’t we sell weapons not only to Iraq, but also to Iran? An we also have sold weapons to Bin Laden back in the 1980s to help him against the Russians. I just think that when it comes to us selling shit, we probably should stop selling weapons. I mean, can’t we find other things to sell, like fat? We have such as surplus of fat people, why not give them liposuction and sell that to the Saudi royal family. After all, have you seen these people? They are so fucking thin, they can really use the fat. Or how about selling some of our illegal immigrants that all of these Republicans hate so much? Of course, selling people is probably not very moral and ethical, but just think about the money we can make? Its just heartless and cruel enough for these Republicans to do. Also, is there a way we can bottle some of the pollution that we have and sell that? See, there is no end to the shit that we can sell instead of weapons. Now, I know the things I have come up with are pretty fucking crazy and downright mean, but I’m only suggesting them as a way to show how FUCKING NUTS it would be to sell weapons to the Saudi royal family. See, they might be our friends now, but our friends now usually turn out to be our enemy tomorrow. And please, correct me if I’m wrong on this one, but didn’t we help put Castro into power? Come to think of it, we have got a HORRIBLE track record of helping and supporting people and then they turn out to be way worse than what was there previously. Its almost like we should be doing background checks before we help these fuckers. Or maybe they should give us references. Its like the girl that meets a wonderful guy, goes out on several dates, falls for him and then finds out that he is some sort of two timing creep who beats her. We need to be more selective about who we choose. There almost needs to be a match.com for countries, so that we are not matching with somebody who is evil.
