Ummmmmm... who is this Palin person and why are they important?

...our long national nightmare is over." - Gerald Ford, 1974.
While I once respected John McCain, I am relishing the spectacle of seeing him beaten like an errant stepchild by alcoholic parents. I am gleefully watching the Republicans disappearing like roaches when the lights come on.
The Reign of the Dumb is over, and now the work begins.
I have spent eight years as a citizen of a nation run by a dullard, a man so stupid that I often felt glad to be mistaken for a European. It's not an odd feelin...Read more
In my last entry I said
"It speaks to my personality (and fate) that on a night when I am finally complying with style to a penultimate degree, I also am wearing something unforgivably hideous and stupid."
To wit:
But I need today to modify that statement.
My costume is based on the concept of being the world's largest Traffic cone:
It all started when I found a pair of orange corduroy pants in my size on Fa Yuen St. The same night, I found an orange polo shirt in my size, so I knew this was fate.

Just for the moment, my life sucks spoiled chicken salad out of a dead rhino's ass.
The Tennis Elbow, known in Latin as lateral epicondylitis, has gotten bad.
So bad that my doctor would be mad if he knew I was typing.
Or lifting weights. Which I'm not, since I only do that with him anyway.
Oh, and no guitar playing. None of the 8 guitars hung up in my living room. No working on them, either. I have no strength in my hands anyway.
I can't do much work; no typing.
