olympus has fallen?

life reflects art, art reflects life... so could olympus has fallen, a new film about the taking of the white house and possible assassination of thew president of the united states, be art preparing us for another assassination?... we did not have the sort of scheduled one in the 2000-2004 term, after all... a president died in office by some means, often assassination, every 20 years for a long time before that... though 1980 was an or an attempted assassination... 2000, who knows in the secrecy and ineptitude of that administration with the people in charge actually in control of the white house, but that's another story... 1980 Reagan, 1960 Kennedy, 1940 Roosevelt, 1920 Harding, 1900 McKinley, 1880 Garfield, 1860 Lincoln, 1840 Harrison... 2000 had 9/11 after all, perhaps as traumatic as any assassination... and then, i mean besides all of the greed, there's all the other odd theories (still playing with the number geeks, are we?... well, we all have our masks of sanity and diapers of insanity, after all... wait, this was a serious entry, remember?) and religious end-of-days wishes so many want so much to happen... so are we being prepared by art to survive yet another tragedy?...

meanwhile, in the life around here, i think i'll go to bed...
