Bizarro World

Is it just me or are we all being sucked into Bizarro World this week? What the hell is going on in the constellations? First, poor Terri Schiavo isn't allowed to die because Bush and Company deem it acceptable to completely reorganize the system of checks and balances that are in place to protect states rights. One family with the perfect Conservative plight is allowed to lobby for their own special law. Let the poor woman die. I personally think that her parents are a little inhuman. My parents certainly wouldn't sit and watch me slowly shrivel up. Jesus, if it's deemed that I have to go, let me go fast - get to heaven and say a prayer on my way out.

Then, in my stupid news of the week, the Michael Jackson freak show, er 'trial' - It just gets curiouser and curiouser. First, Michael's risen from his death bed to make it to court on Monday morning. Tuesday, a fan causes a huge disruption and falls apart in the courtroom. And then today, in a role reversal, MJ's lawyer, Brian Oxman collapses in the courtroom and is carried out on a stretcher. All the while, Michael's personal magician, Majestik Magnificent, watches on. Of course. Someone's gotta run the show.
