Olympic Torch Relay Fizzles
I've been waiting all week for the torch relay in San Francisco and was disappointed, like thousands of others, when the gutless city administration ordered the torch and its escort of Chinese thugs to duck into a nearby warehouse and emerge on the other side in a bus. For once, the liberal denizens of San Francisco had a chance to use their evil powers for good and blew it. Typical liberal gutlessness. They avoided protesters, alright. But they also disappointed thousands of people who came to SF just to watch the relay. One family drove 10 hours so their kids could see history in the making. And that's not even mentioning the people who were supposed to carry the torch and who missed the opportunity of a lifetime. Of course, Mayor Gavin Newsom is totally unapologetic. But then, what liberal ever apologizes for his stupidity and cowardice? Once again, lefties embarrass the entire country.
And, in other news, I woke up this afternoon after a short nap in my recliner with a craving for a Whopper. So, I turned on the TV and watched a Hillary Clinton speech.
(snort) I made that up myself.
Took Ginger to the vet this morning and survived the experience with only a long scratch on the back of my right hand that goes from wrist to fingers. Putting her in a pet carrier is like trying to push a liberal through the door of a military recruiter's office.
Now, I'm on Poop Patrol. I have to catch her in the litter box and take a sample. That's always an exercise in frustration. Maybe I'll just give them a sample of mine. "Surely, your cat hasn't been eating corned beef and cabbage?"
"Don't call me Shirley."
Hokay, I'm going to have a nice, foamy cup of Senseo, watch Dog Whisperer and go to bed. More tomorrow -- maybe.

Ha! I liked the Whopper! :)
You'd think SF would be used to dealing with protesters. I think it really blows when SF has such a large Chinese population that might like to add their two cents in protest--heaven knows they'd not be allowed to in China!
Not all cat owners are attacked by their furry little housepets...
I wasn't attacked. It was an accident while she was flailing around and bracing herself on the edges of the carrier. I didn't even notice it till I got into my car. Now, had it been Gwen, I'd look like I'd been bitten by a snake.
