Our Shit’s Fucked Up


Warren Zevon - My Shits Fucked Up
kigonjiro

JMSmith has a few words about the Uvalde massacre. He seems to think school shootings are a systemic problem, i.e. America's shit is fucked up. I have no doubt our shit is fucked up, and massacres are a pretty good indicator that somethings is seriously wrong. I mean, that's exactly what I think when I hear about another suicide bomber blowing up a bunch of people - there is something very fucking wrong with that society.

I wonder if this somehow related to the high level of alcoholism in Scandinavia. Scratch that, Eastern Europe has got the most drunks. Could it be the pointless futility of living a socialist paradise? Or is it that they are so impoverished that drinking is the only form of entertainment they can afford?

Map of Central Texas

JMSmith hales from somewhere around College Station, home of Texas A & M. It is in the upper right corner of the map, about 200 miles from Uvalde, which is in the lower left corner. Not close, but a heck of lot closer than I am. I'm pretty sure I have heard of Uvalde before, not surprising since I lived in Texas for a dozen years. Checking my blog I was surprised to find I mentioned it six months ago. Lancair moved there.
