We've set a wonderful precedent

Ok this war in Iraq will be no big deal. Yeah, there will be some civilian casualties, but they will be minimal due to our efforts, and almost all that occur will be credited to Sadam's intentional dragging them in. This is so cool! We are going to totally kick his ass - I saw it on TV.

Guilt

I ate lunch downstairs, and there were crowds around the tvs in the cafeteria showing CNN. I came upstairs, started to settle in to my desk, when I remembered I had truffles in my bag for desert! I was bouncing and happy...until I remembered we're at war. Suddenly I felt a wave of guilt, knowing thousands of people are about to die, that my friends-coworkers-fellow guys who live around here are off in some desert fighting for something they may or may not agree with. Here I am worried about my goddamn candy while other people face uncertainty, adversity, and death. Dark chocolate surrounding a white creamy mint center from Lindor.

They just found the flight data recorded from the destroyed shuttle, speaking of the news actually starting to get me down.

Whenever I finally drop my load, I'm really going to feel guilty about masturbating underneath this desk at work.
