Thankfully--in my opinion anyway-- I believe that we have elected the
right person for president. I'm not quite as sure about the VP, but
it was a package deal, and the other package stunk like--well, road-
kill. Hopefully, Ms. Palin will slink back to her Alaskan den and
pull it in after her. Especially after the hatchet job that McCain's
people are doing on her currently, They seem to be blaming his losing
the election on her. *(1) Nothing like having allies who have your
back, eh?*(2)
Whatever happens, at least Burn Notice will be back with new episodes
in January, allowing me to retreat into fantasy in case the real
world gets too bizarre.
I have now read up into July in the local paper, (July 7-8,
thereabouts) where there was an article about terrorists bombing the
Indian embassy in Kabul. What is up with that? Because if they were
trying to elicit sympathy for their cause, they blew it as regards
me. I find much of the world incomprehensible, as I seem to think at
right angles to most everyone else. I really would like to know what
the thought process is that is going on in their heads. Just
curiosity, really. And -- no, it really is just curiosity.

*(1) It was... in part, anyway. Partly it was his insistence on the
correctness of our being in Iraq, which a great number of Usians do
_not_ support, in case you wondered.
*(2)They do, only it is just to insert the knife.
