Some Hunches

It's Monday, it's raining and although I should be working on a new short story that is percolating in my noggin, I have a number of hunches I am compelled to share with you all.

The Wiki-leaks war reports revealing names of informants who have helped the U.S. happens to include many names of people who are agents for the ISI and Al-Qeada who the U.S. would like to see dead. It's a cunning counter-intelligence sting designed to neutralize certain untouchable players. 

Lovie Smith is going to be fired soon.

Our new apartment manager is regretting the high-handed attempt to reassign everyone new parking spots. The sixth or seventh manager in four years, she will not last more than six months.

Fox News is going to 'uncover' new footage of the JFK assassination proving it was a murder-suicide plot, with Nancy Pelosi being revealed as the second gunman on the grassy knoll. Improbable as it may seem, JFK ordered the hit on himself to discredit republicans. In Fox Newspeak, of course, 'uncover' means 'invent'.

There will be a young avant-garde Jazz trio somewhere called 'Goldman Sax'. They will be practicing making music with antique cash registers and adding machines from the Great Depression. The first album will include the tracks, 'The Bush Recession' and 'Blame it on the Black Guy'. After some brief exposure on NPR the group will separate when two of them go to dental school. Years later they will all begin to vote Republican when they become wealthy and feel threatened by the growing miscegenation of America.
