With all that has been going on about "revolution" this, and "Nazi" that, I've decided that thinking about things like this are not going to make my health any better.

I've seen people insulting eachother on this message board, people scared out of their wits, people who I know to be sensible.

I've come to the conclusion that we're all a little hotheaded now about the recently passed legislation. Not me though...I was just scared shitless. My mind racing, pacing like a cat for the past three days. Scenarios bubbling up in my head. "What if" this, "what if" that. Making me physically ill.

I've decided not to play the part of Chicken Little from here onward, and the best way to do that is to take a break: a sabatical if you will. I'll be removing my bookmarks on this site for the next week or two. Not looking the other way mind you, but looking at other avenues. Maybe pay YouTube a visit, or read an online comic all the way through in a single sitting. Just things to get current matters off my mind.

I do not have a bleak outlook. In the end, things will work themselves out, they always do. Not naivete or ambivilance on my part, just practicality. There are people out there who will make sure that the shit does not hit the fan. I am convinced that there are still good people out there looking out for the everyman. If and when problems occur, I will deal with them.

In the meantime, I'll be trying to live my life, I hope you all do the same.

Peace and chicken grease comrades. We will meet again.

mmmmmm.... gravy!

We will meet again...

in the place with no darkness.

I've seen people insulting each other on this message board,

what else is new? This is NS General. On the other hand, I've been a lot less personally insulting (haven't resorted to the kinds of cursing and namecalling that I usually receive).

people scared out of their wits, people who I know to be sensible.

Scared of what? Scared of the government? Scared of other NSers? What?

I've come to the conclusion that we're all a little hotheaded now about the recently passed legislation. Not me though...I was just scared shitless. My mind racing, pacing like a cat for the past three days. Scenarios bubbling up in my head. "What if" this, "what if" that. Making me physically ill.

As long as you're a US citizen, you're not in a position to be "what iffed". If you're not a US citizen, and the US takes an interest in you, and you aren't from a European country that would raise a stink, you could be "what iffed".

:(

You'll be back sooner than you imagine. Maybe even tonight. ;)

These are the 2 webcomics I read on a regular basis:

http://www.the-whiteboard.com/
http://www.schlockmercenary.com/

The Whiteboard got its name by originally being drawn on a white dry-erase board. It's a webcomic about paintball, tinkering, Dew, and going overrboard.

Schlock Mercenary is a sci-fi webcomic. The cast of this webcomic tend to go overboard as well, with hilarious results.

Take care, enjoy yourself, catch a breath, stay save, go get laid, and come back refreshed whenever you feel like it!

Oh - one more thing: If you can save the world while not here, please do so!

I myself am very selective what I alow into my mental matrix. I'm very sensative to contention, and I stay way from any subjects that are drenched in flame.

We all have our little defense mechanisms to make sure we don't swallow too much poison for our emotional livers (if you will) to process.

Take care.
