Robbed at gunpoint.
So I've been considering attending the Art Institute here in San Francisco & I've got a fellow military veteran friend that goes there too. So I sent him an email asking for advice on the place. He responded and told me he was heading to a comedy event in West Oakland where there's a veteran comedian every Sunday & asked if I...

Here's a thread from a link I posted on FB:
JS- "African Americans Arrested at Double, Triple, or Even Quadruple Rate of Whites, Though Young Blacks Consume Marijuana at Lower Rates."
http://www.drugpolicy.org/docUploads/Targeting_Blacks_for_Marijuana_06_29_10.pdf
MH- I would like to think that the high arrest rates are not necessarily racially based, but socio-economically and geographically based, but then there isn't any information on that in the study.

Silence from the White House on Libyan military's killing of 300+ unarmed protesters. Could the fact that Chevron, Raytheon, Shell, Halliburton, General Dynamics, & Dow Chemical are all members of the US/Libya Business Association have something to do with it? Could it be General Dynamic's $165 Million contract to arm the Libyan military? Gotta love corporate America. 
'Society' by Eddie Vedder Lyrics
Great song from the 'Into The Wild' soundtrack:
Society
Oh, it's a mystery to me
We have a greed with which we have agreed
And you think you have to want more than you need
Until you have it all you won't be free
Society, you're a crazy breed
Hope you're not lonely without me...
When you want more than...

Rebelution: Courage to Grow
This song makes me dream big dreams for a person very dear to my heart.
Courage To Grow :
This is a song for those
who lost their hope
a long a long time ago
I know someday that you will find it somehow
Because you're not too old
to accomplish goals
and all the answers are within your soul
its up to you, you gotta figure it out
Uh huh
Whether you want love or money
Good fortune or fame
You want a brand new card
You want the world to change
You better take some action right now, oh yes
Because there's nothing in the world that you can't get
So don't fill your life with confusion and regret
You better take some chances right now
Well you can gain the world
but for the price of your soul
yes I know, well I know, yes I know
you can gain the world for the price of your soul
but I hope you take the road less traveled
and I hope you find the courage to grow
well I hope you find the courage to grow
So now you're 45
and you realize
just what you wanna do with your life
just took some time for you to figure it out
Cause everyone one of us
Has a purpose here
Sometimes its hidden underneath your fear
Just takes some time for the truth to come out
So whether you want love or money
Good fortune or fame
You want a brand new card
You want the world to change
You better take some action right now, oh yes
Because there's nothing in the world that you can't get
So don't fill your life with confusion and regret
You better take some chances right now
Well you can gain the world
but for the price of your soul
yes I know, well I know, yes I know
you can gain the world for the price of your soul
but I hope you take the road less traveled
and I hope you find the courage to grow
well I hope you find the courage to grow
This song makes me dream big dreams for a person very dear to my heart.

Existential Dilemma
I've got this issue between my compulsive belief in all that is good about this life, and the equal compulsion to fight against all the bad stuff in the world. 100% positivity up against 100% negativity. Blah!
Why can't it all be good!?
