This is a fresh update for shocktober.

After much diliberation, I've weighed the prospects of a blog about current events and/or histrionic personal musings. For those unfortunate souls whom I know, you're asking yourselves: "Man, why isn't jacob tackling the issues? Is it because his indifference is the secret to his bad boy charm?"

I can address that.

Firstly, topical apathy has little to do with my charm. I'm just a naturally brusque and sexy guy. It's almost undefinable, but its an innate quality that would exist whether I was a repugnant talk-show host or a hollywood celebrity.

Secondly, my political beliefs may jeapordize my stance with my neo-conservative co-workers and potential clients, under the assumption that neccesity would require them to read this blog. In a day and age when partisanship has created a rift between blue and red, this is an increasing liability.

Thirdly, I'm spent. I mean, it's evident that with all these natural disasters, our administration's unpreparedness truly surfaces. We dont have 'ragheads' or various geometric forms of evil to blame for them. Its unavoidable that our lack of anticipation is to blame, consitering the federal government's only real purpose in this country is to Protect and Serve and redistribute Blue state money to Red state welfare. I just wonder where all that money for homeland security went. Infact, wouldn't it be funny if Karl Rove prodded Dubya to blame his Weather diety: God? Would he renounce his faith, or declare himself the anti-christ? Well, to pay that credence, the late pope John Paul II did declare the war in iraq a sin. Point I'm making in that, is that the success of the Bush administration is creditted to playing the part of a helpless victim who rises in a grossly inaccurate personification of David and Goliath. Without a tangable enemy, it makes them look straight-up foolish.

So, yeah, with all of that said. I throw in the towel with political commentary. As for histrionic musings about girls, how much paint thinner i drank the night before, and the new Morrissay album, I'll try to avoid it. The idea behind this blog is simply to highlight stuff concerning Popgun88.

This entry can be filed under Musings.
