And North Dakota, no one wants to kill anyone in North Dakota. I have been to North Dakota so that surprises me. I wanted to kill everyone when I was in Minot.
I just don't understand it. We're well into the 21st century, and yet, some part of our collective national soul down here still thinks we're revolting against King George and carving out a nation all by ourselves by naught but the sweat of our own brow. Guns are a huge part of this mythology we've woven around ourselves. It's scary when you step back and realize how much of our collective myth is complete bullshit, but still, it dominates us.
This is partly why we still have to endure nearly half, if not MORE than half, of our population screaming that national health care would be an existential threat to the very fabric of our country. I look at other countries that did it years ago, note that they're all doing just fine, and I think, "WTF is wrong with us?!"
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

Not our fault... At birth all "Muricans" are given a Social Security Number, a Birth Certificate, and a choice of firearm...
We get mittens, a hockey puck and the side salad of our choice.
Looks like the Midwest is the most peaceful part of the country. Must be the cold Canadian winds blowing their way.

They use wood chippers in North Dakota when they want to kill someone. Didn't you see Fargo?
I love Fargo. Never looked at a wood chipper ever the same way again.
