I was just staring at the Internet. At my home page. It’s pretty depressing stuff. Apparently the DREAM Act appears dead after Dems pull it from consideration. That doesn’t sound good. I don’t know what it means, but it don’t sound dreamy. In fact it sounds more dead.
Andy Staples: Meyer chose family over football, but will it stick this time? Will it stick this time, Andy? Will it? Are you sure you know whether it will stick this time? Because if you’re going to write a whole bunch of words, you better know if they’ll stick. Or not. Or else you’re just wasting our time.
The Dow is down. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh run to the hills. Run for your li-i-ife. The Dow is down! 24.60 points! Grab the women and the children molesters and throw them up like a levee. We can’t let the Dow overtake us all. The Dow is coming! The Dow is coming! There are people that watch CNBC. Isn’t that crazy?
It’s December 9th. 2010. 60 years ago to this day Harry Gold is sentenced to thirty years in jail for helping Klaus Fuchs pass information about the Manhattan Project to the Soviet Union. His testimony is later instrumental in the prosecution of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg. Klaus Fuchs, you gotta be kidding me. Why’d you do that Klaus Fuchs? And don’t even get me started on you Harry. Helping out the Rosenbergs! How dare you! Did I raise you like that? I always told you the Rosenbergs were bad news. That was another episode of Jewi-Leaks.
By the way I was just reminded I’m using a Dell start page. That’s Dell. D. E. LL. It’s got Dell Forums, Dell On Call, and Dell in the upper left corner in blue writing. Only thing it could use is a deli.
Thousands protest as British lawmakers near vote on tuition hike plan. So what? I don’t live in British. I don’t care how much their meal plan is. Give me some good hard American news.
House Democrats defy Obama on tax cut bill. Oh no they di’nt. Now that’s news. Now that’s something to talk about. If I knew what to talk about or cared. Which I guess I’m supposed to. Seeing how I’m wearing sweat pants right now. But I just don’t. It’s nothing against no one, I just don’t really care about politics right now. Sorry Nina Chaudhary.
I got Dictionary.com right here in the center of my screen. Word of the day is holygrail. Which I always thought was two. Oh, apparently it is. According to The Hot Word Blog. Which says, “While President Obama would certainly appreciate the possession of the legendary artifact, it’s likely that he would be perfectly happy to gain something equally elusive; political compromise.” Now that’s a good sentence.
Red Sox shock the baseball world by landing Carl Crawford. Shock indeed. Now were talking. Carl Crawford, that’s pretty awesome. The Red Sox got younger while the Yankees stayed old. Over under on Jeter’s batting average? I’ll put it at .284. Takers?
I have nothing left on my screen but my portfolio.

What does all it mean? Did I just inside trade? Am I going to jail? Am I rich? Can I go to Five Guys?
Shit I should probably have a point now. I’ve gone 600 words and all I did is write about the Internet. And didn’t add a single thing to the discourse. What have I done? People are going to be pissed. This is the last paragraph and I haven’t proven anything. Shoot, I guess you’ll have to check back next time.
