You can't believe what a gorgeous, sonorous speaking voice he has. This entire month has been gloriously rich. I love my friends and family so. Thank you all for your delightful friendship! PS I am gay for Lotti. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

I didn't know! :swoon Mozart too! The conduit for perfect composition.

Her cake is bigger because she has more teeth. Happy birthday Donna.

No, no. I see your issue with it. It's just important to me to insert as many metaphors as I can. I hope that there are people working on this who have a bit more clarity than those folks. I think the site wants to garner signatures to encourage Congress to propose an amendment to the Constitution to deny corporations personhood. Or to perhaps clarify the 14th amendment. However hyperbolic the wording. Personally I was hoping that you would go before the Supreme court and overturn Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad. Do you not find the implications of this decision in th

This part? and to have our votes and participation count

I think the point being made in the sentence in it's entirety is that if the game is rigged, participation becomes an empty exercise.

And I would add that corporate personhood rights do not extend to corporate personhood responsibilities. Pandora's box is already open.

I think what is created is a product that sells Disney product.

If Disney creates Miley Cyrus does that make her a legitimate artist?

Motion to Amend We, the People of the United States of America, reject the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in Citizens United, and move to amend our Constitution to: Firmly establish that money is not speech, and that human beings, not corporations, are persons entitled to constitutional rights. Guarantee the right to vote and to participate, and to have our vote and participation count. Protect local communities, their economies, and democracies against illegitimate "preemption" actions by global, national, and state governments.

Thinking about this today, I became enmeshed in reading about Illuminati and John Perkins. Bastards.

I hope I never have to be cross examined by you.

"Nobody expects the McCarthy Inquisition!" Oh, I was just answering the question, "Since when?"

I say we round up all the lobbyists and put them in internment camps for a few years.

Sin Ropas ~ Holy Broken To be released this month. It's been 5 years since Fire Prizes, which was reviewed thusly: A dark dusky mournful twang, stretched out over an abstract rock and roll frame, recalling the above mentioned outfits, but also the folky slowcore of Rex, the intimate dark country of Sparklehorse and the indie twang of the Grifters. Everything is shaded and dusty, the guitars go from spidery and slippery, to distorted and downtuned, Hurley’s voice a whiskey soaked rasp, backed up by Iosello’s angelic vocals, slide guitars drift and shimmer, everything dramatic and minor key, h

The 14th Amendment, states that "no state shall deprive any person of life, liberty or property, without due process of law." The amendment was adopted during Reconstruction to protect recently emancipated slaves in a hostile South. But in the landmark case of Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad (1886), the Court, invoking the 14th Amendment, defined corporations as "persons" and ruled that California could not tax corporations differently than individuals. It followed that, as legal "persons," corporations had First Amendment rights as well. Law is a sticky wicket. I rather pr

Dave's Jay impression was meaner than dirt and funny as sh*t. I can't help but think this media explosion is NBC's wet dream.

Huh.

Been a tough couple of months for the music biz. She was part of a certain musical royalty. I read that in spite of her illness she gave a three hour performance recently. Happy trails, Kate.

I'd give a lot to see them in this venue. Tickets are what? Ten bucks? This album still gets played every day and sometimes on repeat. Still blows me away.

Califone in St Louis March 11th!

Excellent! Glad you like them!

Bump.

According to his facebook posts, the album is in the can, titled and he's looking for a label.
