VISTA and other thoughts
Glen, how to you shut off the warning that VISTA gives me every time I do something. Man, the Apple commercials pegged that crappy feature. If I didn't want to make that change, I wouldn't have hit the button.
I heard on BBC world news that male circumcision reduces the chances of getting HIV by 60% according to legitimate clinical studies. How come this isn’t bigger news? 40,000,000 people worldwide have HIV.
Are you telling me there isn’t one US Senator or Congressman pushing for impeachment through the public media?
Gas is almost back to $3/gallon. I expect it to keep going up over the next two years. The problems in the Middle East are going to get worse and Iran, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia are going to want more money to protect themselves from instability emitted by the Iraq civil war. The US plan to withdraw troops next year is better than the current strategy; however, it is still a bad one. Here would be my strategy in a nutshell. 1) Ban all guns, grenades, and explosives. And buy them back from the people at prices they can’t resist. You can’t have peace when everyone is pisses off AND has an AK-47 on their nightstand, 2) Start replacing troops (who are trained to kill) with police (who are trained to protect), and engineers (demand that China and India to send engineers too), 3) Make the provision of full time electricity a top priority. However, I feel the only real long-term solution may be the dissolution of Iraq into a separate Kurdish country, a Shi’ite county (which we can call mini-Iran), and a Sunni province, which the US would need to invest a lot of money in and perhaps turn it into another country like Jordan or Egypt.
I keep having very vivid dreams, which I call HD dreams. However, they are very boring. What a waste.
