What is worse?
A dirty window or a window that looks like someone tried to clean it but did a suck-ass job at it? The first looks like I don't give a shit, the latter that I'm not worth a shit. Philosphically, I'm stumped on this one and I'm a philosphy major. Now I don't know if I should continue tomorrow or screw the whole deal. I even went out and bought a new squeegy. Maybe streaks will be in this year? Does anyone out there have a kid who wants to earn $5/window to clean them? What a way to spend a nice Labor Day weekend. Yes, I know, I know: Go out and get laid. I plan to.

So, where are all the oranges?
Sitting on a nice hotel room right now in Mission Viejo (Is it my imagination or do towns and cities in California have stange names.) I flew into John Wayne airport in Santa Ana yesterday. I expected to see a big statue of The Duke in the middle of the terminal, but no such luck. I got a bit plastered last night by just one martini, but what a big martini is was. I could fill the glass three times from the strainer. I managed to have a great time anyways and had a great night's sleep and caught up on all my email and stuff this AM. Hoping for the beach this PM. Great weather out here compared to the muggies on the east coast.

Here's an article with a good answer to the question....
Why would any woman want to do this work? http://deepthroated.wordpress.com/2010/07/22/2122/#more-2122 Life can totally suck sometimes.

Lord am I glad I'm not a grade school student or have kids in grade school...
If you are a parent of such, read this article and prepare to tremble at this article that recounts cyber-bullying: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/37968859/ns/technology_and_science-the_new_york_times It recounts the horrors that are being unleashed by public network sites and the ubiquitity of texting cell phones upon kids these days. I have always felt that the First Amendment is a basic tenet of our society but the stories recounted in that article make me start to wonder. I also have much greater sympathy for school principals now especially as the current budget squeeze puts greater strain upon their resources. How they get to their core agenda of teaching when they have to deal with the BS from social networking bullying is beyond me. I fear that the educational goals must really be suffering as a result.
