In other news, the sky is blue

SUVs suck, octopuses rule, and Bush likes killing Arabs.

It's nice to know that the world never changes.

(Hat tips: [livejournal.com profile] rackletang for the octopuses, [livejournal.com profile] uberbitsch for the Camus.)

"It's nice to know that the world never changes."

Sure it does. Last night I went to sleep all warm and snuggly in a nice barricaded building, then I woke up all dead and zombified. And then a nice Sabotabby came by and revived me. It's been quite a day.

Malton IWW? I love it! I totally want in!

Bless you for finally leading me to the discovery of finding something I've been wondering all these years...the original reference for The Cure's 'Killing An Arab'. The lightbulb is now on. My reading of Camus has been spotty.

Now I feel like reading this book: .

And I wonder what other books Bush read over the summer, or perhaps that was it.

Godot + Camus + the Cure = h0tt. Maybe teh purzident heard Killing an Arab on the Clear Channel last month liked it, and found out through the intarwebz that it's based on a Camus novel, and decided to read it.


Worry not: in AP English, we had to do book reports and 2 of my classmates chose l'étranger, precisely for the same reason that mr.purzident read it: it's a quick read (less than 100 pages, if I remember correctly).

It didn't make any fucking sense to them, they admitted, but they can tell the basic storyline: Man isn't sad when his mum died, man has sex with a girl named Marie, man kills arab, man waits in prison, man gets acquitted and walks out a free man. Except that man didn't walk out a free man.
