I am at work; the last thing I should be doing right now is writing in this journal. Oh well, fuck it. Today I watched the news for admittedly the first time in a long time. I just don't LIKE the news. You never know how much truth you're getting. We think we're living in such a safe, democratic country..we think we know exactly what's going on in the world and where we stand. Actually, we have no idea how much of what we're being told is actually happening the way it's said to, how much of our "policy" is actually being put forth. It's a lot like serving a very sneaky "Big Brother." At least the Big Brother in 1984 didn't try to hide his absolutely disgusting need for omnipotence. Well anyway, I was watching the little old Israeli women and the anchorman over there is commenting on her hysteria while she's pushing the camera away. I don't know exactly what I think about that but it struck a nerve somewhere. I'm still trying to organize my thoughts about it.
