This is one of my favourite proverbs. It is Eskimo in origin. I just wanna throw this out there, in case some people who really need to be reminded of this happen to see it:

“He that boasts of his own knowledge proclaims his ignorance.”

And while we’re talking of Eskimo proverbs, I personally would do well to keep this in mind at all times:

“Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy - myself.”

And how are you doin’ today?

I just had the worst nightmare.

I dreamed that the Democrats won the 2008 election and everyone was really happy until they found out that somehow, some way, John Ashcroft was now the president.

I don’t remember who the vice president was; they announced it in my dream and it was so horribly traumatic I woke up and sprang out of bed, almost relieved that it was still Hurricane George in charge, our own category five president, as Bill Maher (or more likely one of his writers, since he’s a desperate, pathetic little man who doesnt share his weed and debases himself at the feet of women he’d like to bone) cleverly observed the other night.

Almost.

Man.

“When history looks back I want people to know the Nazis weren’t able to kill millions of people and get away with it.”

Simon Wiesenthal has been one of my greatest heroes for a long, long time now. He is a man who, from the moment I discovered him, has been a major inspiration to me.

Though I never had the honour of meeting him, I loved and respected him, his mission, his devotion, his determination, and all he stood for. He never stood down, he never gave up. Mr Wiesenthal left a mighty legacy behind him, but there will never be another like him.

I hope that the work he did for so many decades is carried on, and that his message doesnt get lost. He never wavered on his path, seeking truth and justice. Simon Wiesenthal was truly a real, live superhero. There should be holidays named after this great man, to remember and celebrate his life and his cause. I deeply mourn his passing, even though his life was incredibly long, and full, and rich.

We shall not see his like again.

I just want to say that the show Curb Your Enthusiasm is one of the smelliest, most rancid piles of shit that passes for entertainment that I have ever had the misfortune of being forced to experience. And both Larry David and Richard Lewis are unfunny, talent-free, overrated hacks.

And yeah, Seinfeld sucked ass, too.

That is all.

Yeah, so at about 12:50 this afternoon, most of Los Angeles went dark.

Let me tell you that this is the most power-outinest state I’ve ever been in. The power goes out here for no reason at all, and it’s fucking annoying, because it’s also the most expensive state I’ve ever lived in when it comes to the power bill. It’s ridiculous out here. And when the goddamn power goes down for no reason, it just adds insult to injury. Plus, I was in the middle of working, and after the Great Computer Firework of January ‘05, every time the power dies I have a stroke thinking that it’s going to cost me $500 in emergency computer repairs.

Well, we found out via the radio that power was and is out all across Los Angeles and the DWP…that’s the Department of Water and Power, to you…has no fucking clue why. SoCal Edison isn’t experiencing any problems. Just the DWP.

Thankfully, my computer is fine and the power was only down for about an hour. I can finish my work now. Lucky for me. I know about a half million people southeast of here who weren’t so fortunate.

Right after that thought, though, the word “terrorists!” popped into my head. And sure enough, on the radio, the announcer was claiming that while the cause of the outages are unknown, terrorism hasn’t been ruled out. I wonder how many people across town right now are truly frightened, thinking that the big, bad terrorists are headed directly for them?

One of these days, it really might be terrorism, you know. And when it happens, we are going to be completely fucking unprepared for it, because not only is the state government a joke, but the federal government is 20 times worse. Then what?

Thanks to the gods of electricity and the Internets for bringing technology back to my fat, white ass. I would have thought they’d be too swamped right now worrying about other stuff to pay attention to us; but clearly, they’re better at multitasking than any number of elected officials ever could be.

I wonder what happened? Hey! Maybe it was terrorists!

It’s the suspense that gets me.

4:00 - Update!

WOOHOO this is AWESOME.

California utility workers are fucking stupid.

Nowhere in America is any official entity imbued with even the merest shred of efficiency or professionalism. Everyone is so busy being a selfish prick that they have no time at all to give a shit about anything else.

This is ridiculous, man. The US is one great big giant inbred trailer park.
