* Tuesday, July 15, 2003 *  
This is an actual monologue I had with myself last night (after a looong bout with Physics with help from Daddy): As I was washing up to go to bed, I noticed a bruise on my arm. So my brain asked me "I wonder where that came from."
I answered "Rubber bullet."
Brain: "Huh?"
Me: "Well, I know you haven't been around for a long time, Brain, but Bush is president now."
"Again?"
"No, his son."
"Ohhh.... So what does that have to do with rubber bullets?"
"Well, George, Jr. decided to declare war on the 'whole wide world' and appointed his teddy bear Secretary of Defense -- at which time, a witness claims, Colin Powell took off his sock and threw it at the President as a sign of protest. But anyway there have been a lot of rioting in the streets around the country."
Brain: "We were in a riot? Cool!"
Me: "Well, no. I was walking down to Safeway for a midnight snack of Ben & Jerry's when a guerrilla force overcame me. Before I knew it I was in the middle of a street war."
