Eight years ago today
There's an 8 year old piece of paper on my work terminal (it was transferred when our machines got upgraded). Eight years ago, very grumpy, I put it there:
George W. Bush
President of the Republican Party
of the United States of AmericaStuff hadn't happened yet, but the color ink I chose was dark red. I think my thinking was red for Rethuglican, but darken it to make it legible. Now, after his wars-of-choice, looks like old blood.
11am, local time, will be noon on the east cost. That's when I tear it up. I may bring the pieces home and burn them.
