It’s funny what you remember… In 1977, my little 9 year old brain delivered it’s first profound thought–”the 70s suck”. A few years later, I remember making a mental note (obviously, successfully) that that particular October 8th was the worst day I’d yet had on this little rock and in the future, I would be holding a grudge against it. Well it is time again for another of these epiphanies…
Though I usually prefer the odd numbered years, I must say that 2005 has officially and totally sucked ass. I mean sure… we had some giggles here and there but I’m talking on the whole. And I’ve been one of the fortunate ones! I am not alone in this thought either. This cursed year of the monkey has been pelting us all with it’s moist scat from the get-go.
I had originally nabbed this clip because I think it’s funny. I’ve been running my own personal Scrubs marathon while 2005 is shown the door. Ironically though, the clip casts a foreshadow (yes! stick that in your pun and smoke it!) for my 2006 resolution.
And now, I will begin consuming diuretics by the fistful so that I might have a proper stream when I piss on 2005′s grave. RIP 2005… you son of a bitch!

Probably too early to tell if 2006 is turning out any better than 2005. Along those lines I came across a surprisingly sharp-tongued political diatribe written by John Cowan of New Grass Revival fame. From the little I’ve seen and heard of Cowan, I kind of had the impression he’s an arrogant blow-hard. He may still be those things but his April 3, 2006 journal entry caused me think of him as more than just someone with a big singing voice.
