Yesterday I Turned 21 (moment of reflection)
This is the first blog I right while intoxicated so please bare with me.
Well I turned 21 yesterday and to tell you the truth its kind of epic. You see now that I have my 21st birthday out of the way I have no other mile stones to look forward to for the next 45 to 60 years depending on if I get Social Security and if I ever get to retire.
You see after the 21st birthday you really don't get any new rights besides to rent a car at 25 and to run for President at age 35. So for the most part my major mile stones are out of the way, well at least the ones that have a specific date attached and as I already assume that I will be the the Dictate of the world by age 34 I don't have to worry about the age to run for President now do I?
I now look back at the past 21 years of my life and view all the things that occured. In hind sight the greatest things that shouldnt have happened in my life time are 1.) The fall of the Berlin wall. and 2.) 9-11. This is because when we lived in the Cold War all was well. Now sure those who lived through the Cold War had a very healthy fear of Nuclear death. But in hind sight it kept the rest of the world in check. With two guns pointed at the head of the world no one dared to be to much of a dick less they get us all killed. Now I look at the world and I see the US as the lone super power with all this awesome fire power and no one to threaten it with.
The War on Terror sucks dick because you can never kill enough of those little terrorist bastards to do any good. If I was miss Teen USA my wish for the world would be to have all the Terrorist of the world to gather in one place and then order a B-52 strike, an MLRS strike, Napalm, 105mm Howitzer fire, and a Daisy Cutter for good measures on that location. Mind you I have been playing a lot of World in Conflict, best RTS of the year hands down.
I guess that I look over the past two decades and realize that its better to have an enemy that you know and can take account for themselves, than an enemy who is a non factor on the world playing field. Maybe I'm just drunk and am trying to be profound, but hell I miss the old days when the bad guys had some balls.
