It started with the usual where are you from...?
America.
It progressed to making fun of my slight twang.
"You're a quacky yank. Quack Quack"
Yeah, I've got a little Midwestern drawl.
Conversation turns to politics.
Oh, brother. This is not my strong suit.
He hates Bush. Typical.
Loves Obama. Also, typical.
Cried like a baby when he was elected.
He even said.......
"His election was like God coming to Earth."
A reincarnation of JC?
Come on.
Then, it got personal.
"Can I ask you something personal?"
Yeah I guess.
About September 11th.
Uh huh.
When the pentagon blew up - they didn't find the bodies.
How is that possible?
Me - I'm not one for conspiracy theories.
At midnight Nick and I were discussing this conspiracy theory bologna.
And he pulled this up. He figured I wouldn't watch it for more than 5 mins.
Like I said, Politics - not my thing,
and political documentaries - really not my thing.
But an hour and a half later,
this documentary was blowing my mind.
Seriously.
My. mind. was. BLOWN.
So my compatriots, I'm now wondering...
how do you feel about conspiracy theories?
Especially when it comes to 911.
ohhh so I will watch this in a sec. you'll have to post more pics of your house!!!!!!!!!!! and I am coming to london for the gorilla run, I'm so excited :) :)
ReplyDeleteoh and so conspiracy theories are interesting...but they kind of freak me out. I just chalk it all up to the fact that i'll just never know the truth about a lot of things and move on....haha
ReplyDeleteI think I get a little too involved with conspiracy theories - obsessed is more like it. but your experience is like so many I have here... the europeans have such an idea about our country - what's best for it. And in some ways it is refreshing and in other ways it is annoying.
ReplyDeletereally enjoying your bog.
