I Did Burst a Blood Vessel

with 3 comments

There’s a big red spot on my eye today.
It’s a brand new thing since yesterday…….

I made a comment on Gentilly Girl Wednesday in response to her post about our illustrious D.A. trying to weasel out of paying up after losing the discrimination suit brought against him and every last appeal too. I said, “I swear this man’s gonna make me pop a blood vessel. It’s WAY PAST outrageous that WE have to pay for HIS racism.”

This morning I awoke to a big red spot on my eyeball….I assume it is a popped blood vessel. Could it have been *insert Twilight Zone music* a premonition? Anyway, King of Pain has been running through my head all day…..instead of “a little black dot on the sun”, my head-voice sings “a big red dot on my eye”……
Ironically enough, in reading the lyrics to this song I think they apply quite well to da hat, with a little bit ‘o word change:

There’s a little black spot on the sun today
It’s the same old thing as yesterday
There’s a black hat caught in a high tree top
There’s a flag-pole rag and the wind won’t stop

I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running ’round my brain
I guess I’m always hoping that you’ll end your reign
But it’s your destiny to be the king of pain

So….oh yeah, I plan to go on a local news fast this week-end…no news! Ignorance is bliss!

In honor of my big red dot, Flashback Friday is King of Pain by The Police, a live vid from back in da day.

For anyone interested in D.A. Eddie the Hat Jordan’s shennanigans (or lack thereof) lately, Swamp Woman has a host of great links in her post today.

  2. Darlin’, I’m so sorry that the “Hat” has caused this reaction for you.

    I’m just vibrating with anger over this poop.

  3. Yeah, his crap all this week has gotten me as pissed as we all were when we marched. It’s unbelieveable that the citizens of this city have had to put up with his incompetent, arrogant ass for this long. I think when he’s finally, truly outa here we need to have a city-wide par-tay!!
