threeplusfireBanning smoking at the beach. As if I didn't already have enough reasons to be wary of California.
If we're going to get all high and mighty about pollution and health concerns, then along with banning smoking they can ban soft drinks, cars, anything in cheap plastic wrappers made with less than 50% recycled content, fast food, and about eighty billion other things.
It's bad enough my government is trying to cut into the Bill of Rights, but now they want to tell me what I can and can not do on my own free time? Fuck that. Shut the fuck up and go somewhere else when I'm smoking. Argh.
Reading the news makes my blood pressure boil. Israel launches another rocket attack and kills Yassin of Hamas. What a brilliant move. Let's all keep perpetuating the violence because no one can bloody damn agree on anything. One of my first aspects as Supreme Overlord of the Earth will be to bomb that entire region off the face of the planet. If you kids can't share, then no one gets it.
In more pleasant news reading, I found this NY Times Magazine article on philosophical counseling. Oddly enough, this is something I would really want to try. It might help. After all most of my issues are philosophical ones at the core.
