Happy Fourth of July

Ah, the fourth of July... I used to be really psyched about this pseudo-holiday, but this year I could not care less. I've been looking forward to it, but not because it's Independence Day, but because I get the day off from school. A day that I can use to get a step ahead on my homework and go to sleep early.

Really, I don't understand how anybody can really give two shits about celebrating the birthday of this 'glorious ' nation that excuses criminals, as long as they have the right skin pigment and political connections, that oppresses our rights to basic privileges and privacies in the name of 'safety/security', and that seeks to exert its will across this world without consideration for native citizenry. Oh, and I almost forgot, a nation willing to restrict its population's access to information for the right price. (see savetheinternet.com for more on that) Didn't our president invent a label for countries like that a couple years ago...? It's like it's right there, at the tip of my tongue.... Grrr, what is it...? Oh, YES!!! "Axis of Evil".

What a hypocritical war mongering self absorbed cancer on this world our country has become. Happy 4th.

Oh, and for the auto-enthusiasts... Check out TimeAttack out of UK. Mostly rice rockets, but pretty cool.
