I've just realised ...

* America has a President who has actually done a reasonable to good job in extremely trying circumstances, but almost everyone hates him passionately anyway and is likely to vote for someone far less able next time (and without even Reagan's redeeming qualities).

* It's bleedingly obvious that our reliance on oil is fucking up the entire world, but people are sticking their fingers in their ears and singing LALALALALALA! when alternatives are announced.

* I have a fringe.

* The global economy is tanking due to private over-reach being blamed entirely on governments (who in reality mostly bear a part of the blame, but very rarely even the bare majority of it).

* Skylab Redux is about to occur.

We are TOTALLY reliving the 1970s!

If you hear any whistling sounds coming from above this afternoon, duck, and then grab a pair of tongs and see if you can pick up a sale-able piece of space junk!

OMG! WE ARE!!!! Whenever I think of the 70s as a child, I remember lines at the petrol/gas station, Elvis dying, Skylab, and three mile island.
