Be Prepared

My cable box plagues me every once in a while with messages from Comcast that are utter wastes of time. Today's was a real gem, though. It informed me that September is National Preparedness Month. "Too little, too late" doesn't even begin to cover it.

How very timely

are those spam posts? what a horrible thing to do. anyway, back on topic, I'm not a big fan of the whole "_____ month" thing. but that is kinda bad timing. whoever decides which month is which, surely should have known that at some point it would seem prophetic to have Preparededness Month during hurricane season.

Months like this imply that you should be unprepared for the rest of the year. It's yet another tactic to fill our heads with terrorist scare stories, justify the loss of life in the Middle East and keep us from thinking about the big picture.
