The Plague has started

To all,

Tell everyone in your office to open the curtains or blinds so they can watch the end of life, as we know it.

The sky should be falling any minute and I pray that you dont get hit by all of those unmanned buses careening out of control when your out and about watching entire neighborhoods burn to the ground as looters, murderers and rapist pillage the community while diseases spread unchecked throughout the populous as the sick and the old starve to death while countless thousands lose their jobs and ways of life!! Smog pollution, noise pollution, crowded shopping malls, all of those new cars on the streets, all because a few greedy people voted to spend their money as they see fit and denying government such a small, small sum. How much more must this tired old planet endure?

I can hardly bare the thought of those lucky enough to come out unscathed by all this. Imagine all of those state workers struggling to get through the days as they quickly try to bring up to speed the 5,500 new employees on how to operate as a bureaucrat who has too much time on their hands as spend 11 percent more than last year. Then those politicians and their massive staffs as they make the gut wrenching choices of which worthless programs take precedent over police, fire and transportation issues. All these people having to spend thousands of man hours in seemingly never ending meetings struggling with this question and coming to the inevitable conclusion that there needs to be even further meetings! All of those boring hours of freeway travel back and forth from one government agency to the next in every community in the state.

It is already beginning to happen here! Why else would Ken Griffey Jr. be leaving. After all didnt we just build HIM a brand new playground with the biggest locker space in the Majors. And to think that we were afraid what El Nino and La Nina would bring, but all this will pale now that 695 has come to pass. We will be lucky to see the sunshine for the next 6 months.

And what about the Children.

Ed - the above was sent to me by my brother Jim. who also voted Yes

I actually had to swerve around a big chunk of blue sky and clouds this morning that was in the south bound lanes of I 405. Fortunately, there was an abandoned state highway plow that someone used to push it off to the side of the road.

It's already happening! Shooting in Seattle because of 695! Not enough law enforcement to keep this kind of stuff from happening!

Now that it is the end, I was wondering if we could have our share of Government Commodities before they are used up by the folks that will be unemployeed. I would like my share before they get down to the Gulf War or Vietnam or World War II surplus. We paid our fair share of taxes to have our fair share of the Government stockpiles. I was wondering if we could have the "unemployeed" Government folks deliver to our houses our share of the 3 day emergency fund food before there is a terrible icestorm or pieces of the sky fall on our houses. With the surplus tax money, and the surplus food, we should all be ready for Y2K. Oh, yes, by the way, there is a possibility that noone will have to pay $30 for tags. The Government might just go all the way this time and embargo the USA from receiving gas and oil form itself. M
