Just what in the hell is this world coming to?  Some guy shot an attorney in California while camera crews were present.  You can read about that here.

This really pisses me off.  People continually bitch that items from history are slowly disappearing.  That all these precious items will be lost by the time our children's children are grown.  Some of the people that are saying these things work for government agencies in various countries.  Then 7 Egyptian officials (one of them a senior official) were arrested for trying to sell a mummy to an undercover cop.  It was the third case in a year involving government types.  It galls me to no end.

Its not like this only happens in Egypt.  It happens here too.  Underhanded bastards who are stealing out heritage out from under our noses can get jobs.  But decent people are out of work.  Will someone please explain this to me?

Remember what I said the other day about trying to make a bad situation less bad?  Well this goes with that.  People, no matter how much you hate your job, be happy you have one.  There are people that can't even feed their families.  I grew up like that.  A lot of times we didn't have money.  If it weren't for my grandparents, we wouldn't have had food during those times.  Not to sound preachy or cliché, but be thankful for what you have.
