"I want to be there."

I want to be there in Iraq or Kuwait or where ever. I don’t know why but I want to be there, whether as a journalist or as a soldier. While I’m watching pictures of air raid sirens going off, people wearing gas masks and bombs going off for some reason I just want to get involved. I have an urge to be a part of it. Maybe it’s me being patriotic; maybe it’s me being mad/sick. I can’t really describe it, it could be adrenaline. A part of me just wants to pick up a rifle and kick some ***. Even as a journalist, being there would get me excited/scared. But deep down I know I want to be there with ‘our’ men and women fighting for our country.

Is it wrong for me wanting to be there while people who are there are scared and worried? Am I sick? Why do I want to be involved in a war? People will die, yet I still have an urge.

Some people don’t care, like Ant, and I can’t understand why.

War has started and I’d give my right arm to be there. Though in retrospect with out my arm I couldn’t hold a gun, so I’d be dead weight.

There’s panic in the world, and I seem to be getting off on it. Maybe I like the idea of coming home a hero, having the whole (well, nearly) country cheering me as I arrive back home. The satisfaction.

This wont make a lot of sense as I’m just writing what I feel. So, anyone else feel like this?

Yep, last time I ever buy any bread from Lidl (Sp). Skanky shop. Hovis all the way.

You have slimey bread?

I think I've nailed ytour problem right there...

I think I'll just do it in the comfort of my own home.

*Picks up slice of bread*

Why you slimey little ****!

The sick thing is, that's precisely what is happening in London with sick weirdos shooting/knifing people in broad daylight.

It just occured to me...what's so "broad" about daylight anyway?

Or do the Russian roulette in The Deer Hunter.

Just heard that Donald Rumsfeld is holding a press conference in five hours. Not sure why I felt compelled to share that with you but I expect an announcement of heavy firepower being launched...

yes. do this in the high street on a saturday afternoon.

be sure to run before the police catch you.

So, I should try screaming/swearing at a random object?

you can blast you brains out with a rifle, a small stick and a few rubber bands.

A rifle eh. Now lets find those school books and any townie I find walking around.

It would be impossible to shoot your heart out with a rifle. You could blast your brains though, like in Full Metal Jacket.
