I wish that Kerry was the Democratic nominee in 2000… just so that I could see how Nader’s speech before the Tomb would’ve played four years ago when he had enough relevancy so that the speech would’ve been covered, and someone out there would’ve dissected it a bit.

Though then it probably would’ve been tossed into the “whacky feature” bit.

As it is, we have to content ourselves to the small pebble that it throws into the blog O sphere.

As it is, the people who are most annoyed are not Kerry and Bush or any of the people in government and industry who used the Old Boys’ Network Skull and Bones connections to get ahead, but the actual current roster of Skull and Bones — the students living in the Tomb — who are sitting there, while right outside their house, Nader is yelling and raving.

I’ve probably disappointed any number of web-surfers, looking up “Skull and Bones” and getting just another Democrat-leaning blog. I apologize to all those web-surfers.

Trina Robbins was on Coast to Coast (the Art Bell replacement — the ever underwhelming George Noory) the other night, going over her research into Skull and Bones and her new book on Sororities. Went undercover for that book, apparently, and passed herself off as eight years younger than she was. That, along with various interviews, lead her to conclude that some sterotypes are true, and even that there is a certain amount of truth in the Porn-version of events.

Fluff for the course, I’d have to say. Skull and Bones is creepier, as those things go.
