I’m part Irish, part German and from the Midwest. I want to be a writer, I’ve got writer’s block and my professional life is unsatisfying. There’s no way I drink near enough alcohol.
On an unrelated note, authorities finally got some movers to remove the Ten Commandments monument from the judiciary building in Montgomery, Ala. I know people are upset, that they want to protest and claim their right to impose one religion on everyone else via government offices.
I think they’re all nuts.
What I don’t understand, after seeing this photo on the wire yesterday, is why they choose to manifest their protest in the form of homoerotic massage demonstrations. Was Jesus into Turkish baths? I don’t remember reading that. John Ashcroft might be, but I don’t think Jesus ever was.
Maybe I need to escape to New Mexico to write some poetry and run around in the desert.
Maybe I need to go to bed.

Secret: It isn’t the act of being in New Mexico that inspires creativity, it’s simply the wearing of a floppy, oversized sun hat in jet black (or other mournful shade).

And I thought wearing a floppy, oversized sun hat in jet black in New Mexico only inspired you to paint vagina flowers.
I know being there wouldn’t inspire a novel or two, but it definitely would air out the head in a much-needed way. Plus, I always regret never visiting there when I lived out West.

Being from New Mexico, I can confidently say that wearing a big black hat in the desert will merely result in a very, very hot head. Painting vagina flowers is (always) optional.
