Only two quick things for you to ponder today, and they both deal with hate.

First is the hate I (and millions of others) have for Barry BALCO Bonds. He finally caught up to the Babe in total home runs last night. For all the good it will do him. No matter where he stops with his home run total he’ll never have the impact on the game, or the respect of the fans that Ruth did. Ruth had some pretty big character flaws himself, but he never cheated the game. Bonds is a common street punk that didn’t believe in himself enough to go for the record with out ‘enhancements’. He’s a total ass clown for the way he treats his kids in public and how he conducts himself. This creep is worse for baseball that Pete Rose ever was.

Second up is an lesson we should all take heed of. If this is what the Arabs are teaching in their refined textbooks then we should be surprised that more attacks have not occurred. The Jim Crow/Reconstruction era of South looks like Sunday School compared to this stuff. Americans need to open their eyes and start paying better attention to what’s going on in Southwest Asia.

The Terrible household is in recovery mode today. SDSM had six little girls over for bunking party last night and THE WOMAN is on the verge of becoming a cleaning cyclone. FDSM, THE BOY , and I are all laying low in the back yard until things calm down.

Enjoy the last of your weekend.
