not even Amy can fix this...

[lagilman]

We used to joke that all that was needed to make Middle Eastern tensions die down was for my sister Amy to go on one of her semi-annual trips to Israel. Every single time she was over there, they all behaved for the duration of her trip (why yes, she does teach grade school, how did you guess?)

Alas, I don't think even her magic can cool things off right now...

And I really need to resize this icon so that it's readable, somehow, because it so perfectly sums up how I'm feeling right now.

Christ, what a bloody stupid mess.

This situation is what I point to - without having to say a word - when people ask me how I can not be a deist.

Dudes. Take a look at what people with deities can do to each other, and don't ask me again.

Passing along an entirely unrelated article on young meerkats (http://www.cnn.com/2006/TECH/science/07/13/meerkat.young.ap/index.html) because it's about the only news article I've come across that didn't leave me depressed today.

Personally, I think the answer is air conditioning. Air conditioners for everyone!

Alas, my lease does not allow for air conditioners. Oh, the joys of living in an old house....
