Last Days?
From Peter David's blog::
"Consider: People have claimed that the Red Sox winning the World Series would be one of the sure signs of the impending Apocalypse.
If we take that as a given, then we are prompted to consider that George W. Bush has repeatedly described himself as 'a war president.' Over and over again. He launched an unprovoked war and has gotten the approval of a grateful citizenry for it.
So Bush is War.
Which leads me to wonder...who are Pestilence, Famine and Death?"
For Pestilence, I nominate the flu vaccine shortage. It's the 21st century, and we're still worried about plague?
Famine: The fucking Atkins diet.
So, Death, anyone?
