Hey, what's really going on? Who knows.
The system's
broke—we know that much—but what can we do about it? Let's check the
general state of things to get a clue or two.
Aren't you sick of
being clueless?
OUR BIG FAT WORLD MESS
Every day more and
more ideas, conjecture and downright fantasies about our big fat mess circulate
the globe. We find a plethora of lies, disinformation, misinformation,
some few truths great and small, an army of agents at work around the traps—and
who knows whose 'side' they're on?—and somewhere in the muddle is a greater
truth we can scarcely wrap our heads around.
As soon as we think
we've got things worked out something new pops up to change it all again.
And don't you just hate it when that happens?
Because of its sheer
magnitude we won't repeat a maudlin list of woes here—let's simply agree we
have a mammoth problem. No, no, not some sort of revived Ice-Age-DNA
inundation—at least not that I know of yet—I'm talking about a lot of very
dirty laundry on the save-our-sorry-selves list.
In any case,
wherever it all came from, whatever form it might take, whatever goals may be
mooted, however dastardly or benevolent any individual or group intention
appears to be or whoever the key players ultimately are, one thing we can say
for sure is, "We have issues." Control issues—and lots of 'em.
