Pork Pork Porkety PORK!

I’ve been told that because of the state of economy, the government has to do SOMETHING!!!!

 

Well, apparently, that something is the largest pork bill in history. This thing is made of pig stacked on top of pig, sheathed in bacon, bristling with radioactive pork chops, and cemented together with mortar made of Spam and aerosol cheese. Altogether it is a hulking behemoth of porcine evil capable of simultaneously kicking the living shit out of Godzilla, King Kong, and Gamera the Space Turtle without breaking a sweat.

 

This is the biggest single spending bill in history. Congress debated it for less than an hour.

 

I don’t know about you guys, but when I think about what will create jobs, I immediately think of $150,000,000 for bee insurance. I think about billions of dollars going to the frauds at ACORN. I think of 20 billion for foodstamps, billions for arts and entertainment, billions for abortion and contraceptives, billions going to already rich major universities, billions more to go to Pell Grant so that those major universities can just jack up tuition again, billions for every retarded moronic idiotic stinking stupid thing you can think of, and why the hell not? It’s only OUR money.

 

It isn’t a stimulus plan, it is just a giant list of stuff the Democrats have wanted forever and payoffs to the various douche bags who colluded to get Obama elected. So it is a tiny bit worse than the idiotic Republican plan that consisted of giving money to stupid companies so that the managers could still get their billions in bonuses.  Our government is insane.

 

We’re heading down a very bad road here and I’m not sure where it is going to end up.

MHI sample chapter just got Digged

Okay, I’m not really familiar with Digg, but I just noticed a bunch of hits coming in for my posted sample chapter of MHI.

If I understand it right, if you like something, you Digg it, so that other people will see that it is cool. So basically it is to share the love.

Okay, so if you’re an MHI fan and you’re registered on Digg, could you do me a favor and Digg it? I need to sell me some books!

Panelist at more Sci-Fi Cons

I will be on a creative writing panel at http://ltue.byu.edu/2009Home.html on Saturday, Feb 21 at 4:00.  I get to meet Tracy Hickman! How cool is that? I was reading Tracy Hickman when I was a teenager.

I will be on some panels at Conduit on the weekend of May 22nd. But I don’t know which ones yet. http://conduit.sfcon.org/ Eric Flint will be there. I’m going to have to get him to autograph my copy of 1632. We should hang out or something. He’s a Baen author, I’m a Baen author, except I’ve published one novel and he’s published like 50 best-sellers. Okay, maybe he’ll let me buy him lunch or something.
