Yes, New Orleans was poverty stricken, and that's why so many people couldn't get out when there was a mandatory evacuation. I think that resources should have been used to evacuate the citizens of New Orleans who didn't have transporatation out of the city, instead of routing them into a death trap.

...and I agree that racism plays a huge part in this situation. I saw a news article on Fox News showing white people "finding" food and supplies from an abandoned store, and they showed black people "stealing, and looting" from the same place! What the fuck? Why is it "finding" when a white person does it and "stealing" when a black person does the same exact thing!?!

This administration is fucking worthless!!

i agree, i have no idea why this situation exists to such an extent.

For a week before it hit we watched, why weren't supplies being stocked where they could be utilized and why the guard wasn't called up prior to the hit.......

i just hope that now that things are getting to the point they should of been from the beginning that the senseless deaths stop.

hmm....I just stopped by a friends house last night, who dropped her last bud on the floor, and then smoked it while I was tlaking to her, and then remarked "I think I just smoked some hair." So, I think there was a cosmic aligment of hair smoking going on.

hey i know ist it...

Holy shit! Do you realize how emo the super power of empathy would be?
"Feel my depression bitch!"
"Oh God, it's unbearable! Turn off the Dashboard in my head!"

That sucks about All State. Even if they are being a bunch of cock knockers with you, it still stinks whenever someone is forced out like that.

Charles Bukowski is great this time of nite.

Awesome! I think they are very pretty!

wow, what short lives and limited purpose for their lives.
They only live for about a week, and their only purpose is to mate.

but good rescue, not enough people take the time.

Some say allergies to kittens are sometimes from fear of intamacy.
I have been a vegetarian for a year and half and haven't bought any veggie meat substitutes yet, do you recomend any?
Alan Hovhaness, one of my two favorite composers, wrote a large amount of music inspired by mountains. He viewed them as spiritual metaphors.

Thanks for the recomendation, and the kinds words. And yeah, I have some defenite emotional stuff going on that I have been dealing with at the moment, regarding relationships. I have had a good one or two, and lots of bad ones, one being specifically bad, and allowing someone to be close to you when you haven't let go of and healed that harm is impossible. Good luck with that, good luck to us both.

What happened with the cat? You could always train the dog to think it's a cat. It's hilarious to see a dog bounding around like a cat. What else is going on? How's the art life? -dave

Alone time? I make it a point to commit the majority of my time that isn't at work to alone time. Meditation, studying, studying, studying and creation, oh my. Enjoy that time thoroughly, and don't let no motherfuckers take it away from you.

Where have I been? Living a little too much life outside the little glowy box.

Well, being as that neither of us know much of anything about each other, I suppose this would be a pretty easy one...

I am extremely busy all of the time, and am desperately trying to fit all of the things I want to learn and develop and practice and create into my schedule, while trying not to be watered down and inneffective. And I just baked brownies. yum.

So how about you?

There are certain types of hawks that when mating, they fly as high as they can and at a really up there height, they come together and shoot straight downwards twirling in a spiral and come apart right before they hit the bottom to fly upwards again.

I kind of like lobsters, I like most animals. I could see why you would be afraid of them though, they just have that look.

"Emo" is supposed to be EMO-tional music, usually some whiny post-adolescent pining for a girl he can't have or who has left him. Think of every Dashboard Confessional song ever written. It's music for pre-teen and teenaged white kids to fall in love to in that superficial way that they do. Then you have the other side of Emo that's all hurt and angst, like Taking Back Sunday and Hawthorne Heights, where it's not enough for someone to sing about how pained they are. They have to have someone screaming along to the verse.

Hmm...I wish I wouldn't have systematically eradicated the majority of items and pictures from my childhood - as I am still a nostalgia whore at times. It's a good thing to honour the past as long as you don't get stuck in it as some people do. I should try to find some old stuff some day and put it together like your mom did.

Oh, and I got your friend request, and will be happy to accept, but I just wanted to hear from you first. Best wishes...-
