This is yet another amusing but ultimately pointless attempt to make sense of the world, a place to share curiosities and outrages. That and the occasional movie review.

Grrrrr
Recently on Christopher Moore's MySpace blog, the always funny author posted a slightly worked up letter to Santa and asked readers to post their own requests in the comments. Alas the spirit of replies ends up being not so merry and Moore subsequently comments "evidently my books appeal to people with anger issues." Tonight listening to Last.fm I was offered a pleasant little song that I came to realize was not all that happy, yet it was a decent song. Thus I present the Angry Song of the Week award to "Baby Bitch" by Ween. You can check it out if you like (here's a concert clip and the song's lyrics). Because I believe in balance and as an antidote to the anger I offer you these tips on dealing with anger. I also give you what might not immediately seem relevant but in fact is quite in line with not getting into situations where you will become angry, this nice little list on Making Ethical Decisions. Now go deal with your anger. :)

Hmm, I feel you are targeting me with your Anger Management tips. How dare you!!!
Hee...
Uh, paranoid much? ;)
I was having a day where angry people seemed to be everywhere: on the road, in the news, even in the songs I was offered; the last of these put me over the edge, so to speak, and I had to share. It's amazing to me how much people hold onto their anger, or rather how much people resist letting go of anger. Maybe we hold onto anger because we dread facing what's left: the hurt, the personal responsibility, the unfulfillable desires. We hold on because it seems easier to point at others than oneself. Ah, gotta love pop psychology. Okay, I'm done. :)
