For some odd reason the song...

[electricmonk]

I Hope You Get Drafted by the Dicks is stuck in my head right now.

1. The first music I heard this morning.

One of those interludes on public radio, was an earie orchestral arrangement of Major Tom.

I thought about our troops in Iraq.

2. I'm beginning to think the draft would be a good thing

if for no other reason than to mobilize all those Eminem Moshers that disappointed so terribly yesterday.

I was a pup in the 60's, but always understood that it was the eminent threat of futile death that fueled activism. Clearly the MTV'ers (present company excluded) need a similar fire under their asses to get them to put down the PS2 controls and make a difference.
