Dirty laundry

[muckefuck]

I don't know why I bother to read the news at all, since it just pisses me off. From today's Tribune:

• Vicente Fox just signed a bill outlawing "all forms of discrimination", specifically "ethnic origin, gender, age, or religion". Notice anything missing? Grrrrr!!
• Three INS agents who beat a man so badly he became a quadriplegic and died 11 months later are awaiting sentencing. Why the fuck do we employ such brutal thugs to secure our borders?
• Confirmation, from several sources, that Saddam Hussein was in fact denying Iraqi children with leukemia treatment for propagadna purposes. But do you think those critics who vociferously held the embargo responsible for those deaths have admitted they were wrong? Don't hold your breath!

Of course, why am I reading the Trib at all--a paper I normally wouldn't even wipe my ass with? Sleep is not happening. At 9 a.m., Nuphy's cousin called. At 10 a.m., the workman who supposed to be here a 8 a.m. appeared. Moments later, he left saying he had to "go get some paint" and he still hasn't returned. Where the fuck is his paint, DuPont HQ in Delaware? I finally gave up on him and crawled back into bed, then the Swiss Miss called. I don't know what his problem is--I had to twist his arm to get him to accept Nuphy's direct number in the hospital. He originally said he'd call him "tomorrow, when he's back". I don't know about you, but unless he was unconscious, I'd want to speak to my boyfriend immediately after an unplanned hospitalisation. Call me clingy...
