I read an article in the paper this morning. It's disgraceful. Something must be done.
In other news, I angst because something didn't go my way, and I was drunk to boot.
Also, there is a new movie. It stars someone.
There. I just saved you from reading everyone else's blogs.

You've saved me having to write anything on my blog now too.
Niiice.
For article in the newspaper read subset of 'random political rant'.
For movie, read subset of 'random arts critique'
The only other variant on this theme that people seem to go for is writing random uplifting stories about amusing small children doing adorable life-affirming things, such as dying of AIDS. NOoooo!
Yes it's very life affirming to know children are dying of AIDS.
According to this morning's Dominion Post, the South African version of Sesame Street has a HIV-positive muppet.
Posted by: Pearce at November 26, 2003 1:39 PMAs long as they're dying of AIDS in a courageous manner, it's all very chicken soupish.
Aha. You read an article in the newspaper this morning.

I did. And it's disgraceful. How dare they bring reality into children's lives? Children should be taught that they live forever, that politicians have their best interests at heart, and that every time they say "I don't believe in fairies" a homosexual drops dead.

Nice :)
