Some Random Thoughts on a Friday Morning

Had a few things running through my head this morning and couldn't decide which one to post, so I decided to post all of them. (Hey, it's my blog, I can do that!)

MacKenzie Phillips let her drug problem interfere with her career.

Wow! Really? No kidding? You mean you're just now figuring that one out, MacKenzie? I would have thought that getting fired from a #1 TV show because you were always late because you were high, and couldn't act because you were high, and kept on missing shoots because you were high would have been a BIG clue! Guess it just runs in the family, huh? (If you're too young to know who her dad was, he was John Phillips of the '60s band "The Mamas and the Papas" and was one of THE biggest druggies of the era.)

Manson follower Susan Atkins dies in prison from brain cancer.

I can think of no more fitting ending to this woman's life than this...except for the ride on "Ol' Sparky" she was sentenced to in 1971, that is, which was amended to life when the Supreme Court struck down the national death penalty law in 1972.

For those of you who were either too young to remember or can't remember the '60s (ala John Phillips), allow me to enlighten you: Susan Atkins was a follower of Charles Manson, and on a summer night in 1969 Susan Atkins, Patricia Krenwinkle, Charles "Tex" Watkins, and Leslie Van Houten broke into the home of actress Sharon Tate, wife of director Roman Polanski, and killed everyone in the house. Polanski was out of town, but Tate was killed along with Voytek Frykowski, Jay Sebring (a popular hair stylest of the time), Abigail Folger (heiress to the Folger coffee fortune), and Steven Parent, a poor kid who was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. He was leaving the grounds after having visited the ground's caretaker and stumbled across the murderers as they walked down the drive. He was the first to die. Abigail Folger was chased from the house and killed on the front lawn, having been stabbed so many times that the white nightgown she was wearing was mistakenly thought to be red by the cops. Jay Sebring was hung from the rafters in the living room after being stabbed, and Frykowski was stabbed 41 times.

Oh, and did I mention that Tate was eight months pregnant at the time? Atkins held Tate down and stabbed her 16 times, and when Tate begged for the life of her unborn child, Atkins told Tate, "I have no mercy for you!" After this, Atkins wrote the word "PIG" over the doorway to the house in Tate's blood.

The next night the same group broke into another home in LA, that of Leno and Rosemary LaBianca, and murdered them as well. Leno was left lying on the floor on his back, a barbecue fork sticking out of his stomach. All of this was done as a part of Manson's plan to incite a "race war" among blacks and whites. (Yeah, he's nuts. He's also in prison for life, thank God and the State of California.)

I therefore think it fitting and just that the State of California had no mercy on Atkins, denying her 13th parole request last month so she could die outside of prison. This murdering bitch deserved to die in prison, I don't care how many times she was "born again" or how good a "model prisoner" she was! Paul Tate - the name that the baby would have had - would be 40 years old this year, had he been allowed to be born. Atkins took care of that, so I think for her to die in prison and of brain cancer is a richly deserved fate.

Iran has a second nuclear facility and is "breaking the rules" while possibly developing nuclear weapons

Well, no shit! Now tell us something we DON'T know! I think the only people who DIDN'T know that Iran was doing whatever the hell it wanted to, rules be damned, while developing nuclear weapons capabilities are the people of Iran, who are told only what the government and the lunatic president of Iran wants them to hear.

I'm so disgusted on this one that words fail me. I could write about this one all day long, but in short all I'll say is this: if Ahmadinejad wants a nuclear device, then fine - give him one.

Right over Tehran.

As they say in some parts of the South, "That boy just needs killin'."

I've always said (since the days of the famous Aytollah Kumenhi) that the place ought to be one huge piece of glass, but some of the folks there actually like us, and it might be interesting after the last election theft by the Mullahs to see what is in store for them with what I think will be one hell of an uprising if the Iranian people stay whipped into the pissed-of fenzy that they are presently in against their "government". As for the looney tunes president of Iran, well, his presence in New York was comicallly entertaining. The man truely is nuts.
