[one of those jerks]

News cycles as if they were what the world runs on

White House visitor logs an old story keeps hanging on as Obama administration allegedly shifts position on campaign promises.

Stories come and go
Michael Jackson is off the front page
Afghanistan is now front page news again
None said much about Farah Fawcett,
a generation of teen age girls with "wings"
a symbol of female enpowerment
even if it was titilating.

a friend of silent woman's daughter
on the school bus I drove
talking about me to another girl
as if I was a piece of meat
I was shocked
appalled
Me reading BlackBerry Winter
Saying nothing
Talking about it with silent woman later
Pillow talk, the sound of her voice and then to silence
back when I was "still light and breezy"

I really must appologize to who ever started this thread for rambling so far off topic.
