Excuse me while I ramble.

Ever feel like you may as well go back to bed, cuz the day just isn't going to begin anyway? It's 3:30 in the afternoon and still feels like morning. A grey morning, minus of color or flavor, how I imagine Siberia of course Siberia would be cold, and it's never truly cold here.

I fall into these depressions and if the world was at all fair it would be balanced out with me being brilliant, but I'm not brilliant. I'm bored and boring and as deep as I may think I don't really have anything to say.

I'd love to be able to write something meaningful about what happened Sunday to First Congregational Church, but all I can think is "Really? fer real, you're a neo-nazi, and you don't think you're a joke?" Seriously to actually believe that any group, Jew, gay, what the hell ever, is out to get you is just so stupid I'm at a loss for words. As for illegal immigration, bad/good whatever, but protesting a temple? Get a flipin' life already. I just want to point and laugh at these people, but I have nothing in depth to say.

What am I talking about? From the Press Enterprise...

Riverside church discussing response to parking lot vandalism

Riverside's First Congregational Church is discussing whether to increase security in response to vandalism that occurred late Saturday and early Sunday.
Someone tagged the church with swastikas and Satanic symbols such as pentagrams and "666," said police Lt. Chuck Griffitts.
The church's pastor, the Rev. Jane Quandt, said she also found the words "Eat Jews" painted on a wall next to the church. She did not know why the church was targeted.
Quandt said she attended a Sept. 26 rally in downtown Riverside protesting a neo-Nazi rally against illegal immigration that occurred four miles away. But she didn't speak at the rally.
As they had planned to do before finding the graffiti, Quandt and the associate pastor of the church, the Rev. Erin Beardemthl, wore yellow stars - which the Nazis had forced Jews to wear in concentration camps - at Sunday's worship services, in anti-Nazi solidarity. Some members of the church plan to attend Friday's services at Temple Beth El, she said.
Three neo-Nazis, from the National Socialist Movement, unfurled swastika flags in front of the synagogue Friday night.
Griffitts said there was no evidence of a connection between Friday's incident and the graffiti. Jeff Hall, state director of the movement and a Riverside resident, said the group does not condone vandalism and was not involved with the First Congregational tagging.
