Time to move on?

Observe Wisconsin Governor Jim Doyle. This man is a cockmonger. A cockmonger is one who mongs cocks.

Today Governor Doyle announced a plan that would deny me my contractually promised pay increases, reduce those raises I've already recieved, and force me to take over three weeks of unpaid leave to the tune of a seven percent reduction in salary; leaving me making less than I actuallly started at. But don't worry, I will be expected to do more work that I do at the present for the Badger State.

My boss tried to assure me that it sounds worse than it really is. Basically, I was advised to take it in the ass because the government will eventually feel bad and make it up to me. For some reason, the words of Preston "Bodhi" Broadus came to mind:

"Do the chair realize we gonna look like a bunch of punk ass bitches?"

Fuck.

Another Wolf-Related Rant

The Federal government has officially lifted the endangered species ban against hunting and "population control" on gray wolves in the Rocky Mountains and Great Lakes zone-including Wisconsin. The reason for lifting the ban in place since 1974? Wolves have reached a "minimum" population that won't be immediately extinguished by hunting and government-sponsored poisoning.

Not to sound like a hippy (I frequently feed them to my own wolves), but this doesn't seem to make a lot of sense to me. Thirty-plus years to recover an entire species that was nearly wiped off the face of the earth and as soon as the packs meet a minimal threshhold of sustainability, the government sanctions wholesale genocide to appease some farmers in Idaho? True, the wolves may be takin' their jobs by killing an occasional goat, but what the hell are those farmers going to do when they wipe out the only cure to the futuristic wolf flu? If I learned anything from Sylvester Stallone, it's that nature provides the best cure to worldwide epidemics, even if that cure happens to be dandelions. But I digress.
