After a crazy week I’m sitting on the couch and trying to be a vegetable. I worked out that I haven’t had a day off in four weeks. So the whole massively tired thing seems to make more sense. Means I desperately need some time off. I’m going to have a chat with the boss on Monday to bitch, moan and otherwise complain.
I am slowly developing a frames less CSS and SSI based site. I got the SSI to work but in order to make in compatible for a many browsers as possible I need to work out some way of loading different CSS stylesheets for different browsers.
Have just read about the newly released National Security Strategy for the United States – which is George W. Bush and Condoleeza Rice’s masterplan for American Imperialism. It’s the scariest document I’ve read since Mein Kampf. It’s a template for an attempt to Americanise the world. In combination with Bush’s internal security activities it makes me wonder how long before something happens in the United States which results in martial law being declared. How soon before some convenient event occurs that allows Bush to tighten his hold (or at least whoever is in charge of that mess they call a government) over the country. I’d be looking closely at any event that occurs. I’m not some paranoid conspiracy theorist but that technique is a tried and true one to scare people into supporting you. I’d cite the example of Hitler burning the Reichstag and blaming the Communists. It’s a scary document, written by scary people with the worst possible ideas about the way the world works. A document like this enforced by the people who wrote it will inspire hatred and violence and a response that will make the World Trade Centre look like a sideshow. It will create and breed new victims who in turn will grow into soldiers who will inflict their revenge upon those who victimised them. History will repeat itself in form of more bloodshed and pain. So little vision with such an enormous cost. Sometime I wonder if the United States will ever learn from the mistakes of their past.
