Slacking

Been a bad week for blogging, I know- in fact, I haven't even been keeping up with how the world is inexorably swirling down the toilet. You know, there's an odd lightness of spirit that comes with not keeping abreast of current affairs. Ignorance really is bliss. Wouldn't you think the Earth was a not-too-bad place to hang out on if you weren't aware of the fact that a bunch of sick b*stards think it's "justice" to whip a gang-rape victim 200 times? Or that there are people so depraved that they will strap a bomb to their own one-year old child in order to commit mass murder?

Thank goodness that there are also people like Tam in the world. I'm hereby nominating this for quote of the year (although it'll be tough to choose between this and her "word processor in the mouth" quip)-

They say that it's okay to eat fish because they don't have feelings, but with the way that smoked salmon tastes, I wouldn't care if it screamed all the way to the table and struggled going down. If people tasted liked smoked salmon, I'd be Hannibal frickin' Lecter.

The forces of darkness are gathering and the majority of the Western world is happily pretending that the weather getting a bit warmer is all the calamity they have to worry about. A bit of humour is certainly required right now.
