Due to budget cuts, the Seattle Public Library system will close for a week in March. Lovely. Let me reiterate. I'm an American; I love paying taxes. Why? Because I like things like libraries that stay open, and stop signs, and safe roads, and museums, and power that stays on, and all that stuff that the tax system provides us, but never gets credit for. But soon we'll have the best non-working missile defense system in the world, so I shouldn't feel so bad. Oh, but wait. Prozac battles back. There's bright side here and it's called the first Tuesday in November. That's right Mr. Bush, your day in the sun is over -- regardless that it never legitimately began. I can't speak for Middle America, but here in Seattle, zeitgeist has plunged and it precipitated largely upon the election you stole and your undiplomatic, un-intellectual, and unapologetic attitude. I can't blame you, you probably had a terrible father; you probably never got the love you needed; you probably heard things like, "son, read my lips, you'll never amount to anything." So, I don't fault you for your incompetence, but, unfortunately, you are responsible for 275 million people and you haven't a clue and it's time for you to step aside. You won your family's game of capture the flag with Saddam -- now go back to your Rangers and Lone Star state and leave the rest of us to salvage zeitgeist and look to re-polish our dismal looking economic and social future. And please, for everyone's sake, stop passing the buck. The buck stops at you -- you are CEO. CEO means that you have ultimate responsibility. Also, you might want to investigate a man by the name of Richard Nixon. He had a job similar to yours and he also did a lot of finger pointing. You might be interested in the outcome of his finger pointing. Of course, history forgave Nixon, and history will probably forgive you, and that's OK too. I forgive you; just get the hell out of my way.

While waiting for life that sucks to die, why not listen to my favorite unsigned bands: TQ's Garage Band Playlist.
