Tonight she tells me that she’s going to be in a relationship and to not freak when I read about it on Facebook. I didn’t freak out. I don’t think I really even cared. I am writing this just to get things off my chest and to close that chapter in my life for good.
My relationship with this girl has always been bouncing off the walls. We hook up. Everythings good for a short period of time, and then we don’t talk for a long time. Or at least I try ignore anything that she does.

Everywhere you turn in the news today, and yesterday, and the day before - there’s the United States, much as it was last year before and during the invasion of a sovereign nation we know as Iraq. A dictator was toppled, which is good. Dictators are poor fare in a world where we regard ourselves as humane. Weapons of Mass Destruction and links to terrorist organization(s) were the reasons behind said invasion. The world was in revolt as the United States disregarded the United Nations - an institution which it mainly founded.
Those that spoke up, that spoke out - these were the sane voices, and the last year has shown that they were right in many ways. Even now as Donald Rumsfeld claims responsibility with nothing but words for the abuse of prisoners of occupation, the world watches and condemns once again. If the world were the human body, white blood cells would surround such things and expel them; flush them from the system to keep them healthy.
But these prisoners are also a victim of legality. Would that George W. Bush, the Head Inmate of the United States, not declared an end to the War, they would be instead Prisoners of War, and the Crimes would be International War Crimes. But the United States is not part of the International War Crimes Tribunal.
Here’s the sad news for you insane inmates. There is No Innocence.
The United Nations
How the United Nations, despite the vehement voices of France and Germany (not to mention the General Public around the world!), allowed the invasion of Iraq to happen is simply astounding. And some people want to put them in charge of the Internet? Verily, if they would turn such a blind eye when it comes to human life, then why should we expect them to look out for interests of people when it comes to the internet? This does not mean that the present system for the internet is ideal, but it would be insane to ask people who have failed horribly at more important things to fail in other endeavours which require the same abilities.
