insult to injury

Well it's upon us again. As if I didn't already have enough shit to do this week I just realized it's flag day again. I don't know about you, but I'm getting really tired of the flags always getting all of the credit around here. I work my ass off every day and all I get is corns on my feet and patchy sideburns. This hardly seems fair, and I'm sure in some way it's the fault of the bush administration. Speaking of "W", I was biking to work the other day and realized that bike shorts are a little too restrictive at 6am on a Friday morning. Not to say that getting up at 6am isn't restricting enough on it's own, but who the hell designed those things anyway? I mean the least you could do is leave a guy a little room to breath. Little room. That reminds me of Little House on the Prairie, which brings me to my point for today. Now I'm willing to give up billions of hard earned american tax dollars to subsidize the american heartland so we can all maintain the illusion that this country can grow a potato competitively, but what I will not stand for is bailing out some dumbass who decides to build a house on a flood plain and wakes up one morning with a catfish in his pajamas. I would like to say that this is just a problem in rural areas caused by people who aren't smart enough to know better, but unfortunately poverty and IQ don't seem to be a factor in determining who's going to build a house in an area that people hundreds of years ago could have figured out might be a little risky. What is the point here? Well I don't realy have one other than that I can't stand waste, especially when it bails out Republicans, who incidently seem to be the one common thread when it comes to groups most likely to need federal assistance to pump river water out of their living rooms (I lost the source for that fact, but believe me it's true). This brings me to my conclusion. If everyone would just quit messing with the system I would have a lot less free time and would quit boring you with this mindless drool. My insides hurt, and this whole thing makes no sense, so I think I'll go to be and save some anonymous server farm another kb of wasted space.
