Anyone seen my humor?

So, I admit that words aren't flowing easily for me today. Not sure why. Probably a combination of factors that sit just below the surface. Always there. Always seething. From glaring examples like the video of airshow aircraft colliding with the resultant explosion, deaths and follow-up explanation that went something like, "This has been done many, many times before safely." Like, what could have possibly gone wrong? At this point, no one knows. Maybe, just maybe, hurtling aircraft towards each other at subsonic speeds has some inherent risk, despite having performed this same maneuver many, many times over safely? Duh? Or is that just my innate cynicism surfacing?

And there's today's questioning of the president's press secretary about the ongoing Valerie Plame outing and Karl Rove's possible involvement. The network news' (yeh, I know, I left the TV on that channel too long again!) I happened to be watching concluded its story by saying this may turn out to be an embarrassment for the administration. Is that the best we can fuckin' expect or hope for of this administration ever? A major embarrassment?

How much crap can one consume of pathologies reeking mayhem upon humanity before they exceed "major embarrassment"? I guess I live in a freakin' alternative universe where kids who make a "beer-run" on a 7-11 store get a second chance and the goddamned power brokers destroying lives globally are labelled criminals and sent to prison?

So I apologize for being at a loss for words. For getting queasy at the thought of exactly who might have perpetrated those bombings in London. Terrorists? The French reacting to the loss of their Olympic bid? Zionists? Some covert British/American shadow government black op? (Google "false flag" operations.) Spend some time on Jeff Well's blog and his excellent discussion on 9/11. Oh yeh, I forget. Time. That's a real problem. That commodity we're all short of because of the demands of day to day hustle to 'get by' while those in power 'get by' with atrocities, risking possible "embarrassment."

Some reading this may think: "Oh Dada, just another loose cannon conspiracy theorist who's lost his humor today." Well, maybe we should ask ourselves why exit polls in the recent Ukraine election are valid, but not in Ohio? And maybe paranoia about 9/11 would wither and fade if only we had been delivered more answers, leaving fewer questions. Questions that investigative panels were too squeamish to ask.

"Dada chill out!" was the advice given me by a friend. "At my age, thoughts must and do turn to the transcendent," he said. That's nice. If only it were that easy. How much happier those in power would be if we all cared so much!
