tabular_rasaThings I am thankful for today:
1) I did not wake up and kill myself early this morning.
2) I was awake for most of the day.
3) Mom bought more watermelon and more medication.
4) It stormed for a bit today.
5) The Founding Fathers were infused with the ideals of the Enlightenment and some some crazy theocracy or dictatorship spinoff.
Yeah, I know it's not Thanksgiving, but I wanted to say that, lol . . .
The music on the radio tonight is reminding me of the 1940s. Ahh, the 1940s . . . such a patriotic decade, lol . . .
You know, it's been the same distance from 9/11 to now as it was from December 7th, 1941, to the end of WWII. Was Roosevelt still using it back then? Yeah, sure, probably. Is Bush using it now? Yes, of course. Was there a link with Roosevelt's case? Yeah, sure, probably. Was there a link in Bush's case? Pssh, no.
That's odd to think about. We've sat out WWII. I've experienced the length of time I've needed to experience-write my story. Now I better sit down and do it, lol . . .
This is taking me forever . . .
I hate being sick . . .
PS: I just heard "An Outdoor Overture" by Copland on the radio for the first time in my life. That was the song we played way back when in 10th grade, for contest, when Seth had his solo! Woot! I also heard "Music for the Royal Fireworks" by Handel, which we played in elementary school and middle school-- or maybe in the summer-- several times, for celebration. I ALSO am just now hearing "The 1812 Overture" by Tchaikovsky, which is so cool, because I was just talking with Dad about it, about how it's easier to hear underneath the bangs that accompany it, unlike the "Music for the Royal Fireworks," which is more just like a little chamber orchestra playing it lightly, lol . . .
This is all on that station of Jessica's future university, lol . . . yoink some of their music for me, Jessica, lol . . .

Date: 2005-07-06 10:50 am (UTC)The deductive reasoning holds.
2001: Some mixed Saudi, Afghan, Iranian, and Iraqi pilots attack WTC. The WTC are in the US. The US goes to war with Iraq . . .
The deductive reasoning doesn't hold, so much.
^_^ Lol, I know you and I never agree with this whole political thing . . .
