I can't believe people would still be foolish enough to believe that we are over there to liberate the people of Iraq when such atrocities as the story mentioned above take place. First the Abu Graib scandal which exposed part of the BS that goes on and now this!

I hate to see you leave sg - I will contact you through the other means - My AIM is SocietysPliers13 and my yahoo is dawghousedave. Thanks for the vibes - I'll look into rikei or however you spell it.

BJ died at Hospice. YOu joined in August 2005, according to your profile (they automatically put a "member since . . . " thingie there. Is it just lackk of funds threatening you membership?

Are you serious? It feels like you just got here... Try sorting through some old jeans you haven't worn in a while. You might come up with some cash you forgot was there.

I will be at the demo here in LA. I wish I could be at the one in DC. That one will be huge along with the one in SF.

im surprised conservatives haven't rallied to boycott google. its a relatively ballsy move by google - considering they're trying to market themselves to everyone.

what shows did you see?

often i quote the master, leonard cohen:
Four o'clock in the afternoon
and I didn't feel like very much.
I said to myself, "Where are you golden boy,
where is your famous golden touch?"

Thank you!!! You too!! I think someone's been going around stealing people's golden touches.... Maybe it's just the weather?
So are you coming out on the 24th for the anti-war Nat'l day of protest? I think it should be huge.

That sounds like some deep thoughts found a way into your dreams...
Loved your description of the Bass guitar. That sounded like poetry to me. That was my first instrument that I picked up.

I just got off work a little while ago. My work schedule is not all that great. I usually have trouble going to sleep around this time. The messed up thing is that I have to get up @ 7 to go to school.
So it's sounds like your a fellow musician. What type of sounds to you create out of the Bass or music do you play?

Zion-I just played a show here with De La Soul about two weeks ago. When I saw that you had Zion-I in your favorite bands list I had the same reaction you had when you found out I was into them.
Thank you for sharing your list of artist that you are feeling. I haven't really heard of them but am eager to listen to them. I'm in the dark i guess.
In terms of taste of music, I'm everywhere. One minute I'm into Hip-Hop and the next it's punk rock. I guess it's a reflection of my mood.
This recent incident of Katrina reminds me of what happend when the Tsunami hit. While other countries were able to donate millions the US donated the least amount of money and were almost last to do anything! They can focus a tremendous amount of energy fighting the war on terror but can even ensure the safety of people impacted by a natural disaster?

usually making enough money to afford a $20 million yach means you're probably indirectly responsible for starving people in the world

Ditto that. I grew up with TOH and Hometime every Sunday morning....
then the New Yankee Workshop... Antiques Roadshow, Nova, Scientific
American...
it goes on and on an on.

HBO had a SNL-type series about 13 or 14 years ago called HCTV (hardcore television) and one episode I tsaped has a segment called This Old Whorehouse which is quite a funny spoof of TOH. Also featured are Fairy Tales From The Darkside & Rastapiece Theatre.
