I’ve had the news on since 7am yesterday. I only got four hours of sleep the night before last, so after giving blood yesterday, I slept for 10 hours last night and still woke up tired. I can’t find the words, or even the right emotions. Like so many people have said, I feel numb and shocked. It’s hard to tell yourself that the same imagery we’ve seen so many times in video games and movies, is for real this time.
Man… all the most twisted ideas I can come up with (without being artificial) appear in the paper eventually. Today there was an Edge about some idiot who got hospitalized for a tarantula bite on his penis, incurred while he was “admittedly under the influence of crystal meth.”

And one of the CoDC pages has a text file where this (alleged) phone sex operator complains about a certain caller’s “bizarre fascination with frogs and death.”

What is it with these people? I thought I was making this stuff up. Does this, like the discovery of life on one extraterrestrial planet, imply the presence of similar phenomena everywhere?
