From the ashes of a theater company, a catastrophe arises | Chron.com - Houston Chronicle
"Like the catastrophic events for which the organization is named, theater has the power to inspire fresh examination of one's priorities, through which workaday concerns are set aside and it becomes possible to focus on those things that are truly important. This is one of the most valuable functions art can provide in a civilized society, and it is the primary function of the Catastrophic Theatre."

American Rhetoric: Huey P. Long -- "Every Man a King"
We have a home-loan problem because we have too many houses, and yet nobody can buy them and live in them.
We have trouble, my friends, in the country, because we have too much money owing, the greatest indebtedness that has ever been given to civilization, where it has been shown that we are incapable of distributing to the actual things that are here, because the people have not money enough to supply themselves with them, and because the greed of a few men is such that they think it is necessary that they own everything, and their pleasure consists in the starvation of the masses, and in their possessing things they cannot use, and their children cannot use, but who bask in the splendor of sunlight and wealth, casting darkness and despair and impressing it on everyone else.
The Cowbell Project
It's the cymbal's evil third cousin. It's the dark ring that pounds in the back of your brain and lets you know, it's time to rock. The cowbell is an instrument that can't be overused. It should never be underused. Many great rock and roll songs are perfect because the cowbell is used just right.

Evil Bible Quotes
"I have wiped out many nations, devastating their fortress walls and towers. Their cities are now deserted; their streets are in silent ruin. There are no survivors to even tell what happened. I thought, 'Surely they will have reverence for me now! Surely they will listen to my warnings, so I won't need to strike again.' But no; however much I punish them, they continue their evil practices from dawn till dusk and dusk till dawn." So now the LORD says: "Be patient; the time is coming soon when I will stand up and accuse these evil nations. For it is my decision to gather together the kingdoms of the earth and pour out my fiercest anger and fury on them. All the earth will be devoured by the fire of my jealousy. "On that day I will purify the lips of all people, so that everyone will be able to worship the LORD together. My scattered people who live beyond the rivers of Ethiopia will come to present their offerings. (Zephaniah 3:6-10 NLT)

United Hollywood: Monday Morning Links
- Garth Brooks Rocks
The best-selling solo music artist in US history refused to cross picket lines and appear on "The View" or "Ellen" last week to promote his album. Reports cited this quote from Brooks' publicist: "Garth is proud of the position he has taken since he hopes to be a writer in the not too distant future."
Garth, I'll bet you now have several thousand writers who will happily look at drafts for you. Thanks for your support.
what I think the powers that be don't realize is that this could make the hoi polloi rethink the value of unions altogether...
a good organizer could turn this into a union windfall.
I'm currently reading "Wobblies! A graphic history of the Industrial Workers of the World". 3 out of 5 people I that I told I was reading about the Wobblies asked, "Who?" and one said, "I think I've heard a couple of their songs." These are not stupid people and they are I would say more class conscious than most Americans, but still they'd never heard of the Wobblies...
makes me sad.

spam posts
I have this enabled.
I have had people accidentally e-mail the blog,
but recently I've actually started getting spam
posted directly to the blog.
I have changed the e-mail address
so hopefully it won't happen again.

TREAT AS URGENT AND CONFIDENTIAL
TOP SECRET
I am Mr Haris Ahmed, the director in charge of auditing and accounting section of Bank of Africa,Ouagadougou Burkina faso West Africa with due respect and regard.I have decided to contact you on a business transaction that will be very beneficial to both of us at the end of the transaction.
During our investigation and auditing in this bank , my department came across a very huge sum of money belonging to a deceased person who died in a plane crash july 2000 and the fund has been dormant in his account with this Bank with out any claim of the fund in our custody either from his family or relation before our discovery to this developement.
The said amount was EIGHTHEEN MILLION united states dollars.($18000.000.00) Meanwhile all the whole arrangement to put the claim over this fund as the bonafide next of kin to the deceased;get the required approval and transfer this money to a foriegn account has been put in place and directives and needed information will be relayed to you as soon as you indicate your interest and willingness to assist us and also benefit your self to this great business opportunity.
Infact i could have done this deal alone but because of my position in this country as a civil servant(A Banker),we are not allowed to operate a foriegn account and would eventually raise an eye brow on my side during the time of transfer becuase i work in this bank. This is the reason why it will require a second party or fellow who will forward claims as the next of kin to the bank and also present a foriegn account where he will need the money to be retransferred into on his request as it may be after due verification and clarification by the correspondent branch of the bank where the money will be remitted from to your own designation bank account.
I will not fail to inform you that this transaction is 100% risk free.On smooth conclusion of this transaction;you will be entitled to 30%of the total sum as gratification;while5% will be set aside to take care of expenses that may arise during the time of transfer and also telephone bills; while65%will be for me.Please;you have been adviced to keep top secret as i am still in service and intend to retire from service after we conclude this deal with you.
I will be monitoring the whole situation here in this bank until you confirm the money in your account and ask me to come down to your country for subsequent sharing of the fund according to percentages previously indicated and further investment,either in your country or any country you advice us to invest.All other necessary vital information will be sent to you when i hear from you.
I look forward to receive your email.
Yours faithfully
Mr Haris Ahmed.

keep this business strictly confidential please call me +226-766-50-214
I know that this letter may come to you as a surprise.I got your address through a local Business directory on the web.I must apologize for taking some of your valuable time to explain a proposal that I believe will be of utmost benefit to us.
I am manager of bill and exchange at the foreign remittance department of a bank. In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of 35.000.000.00 MILLION USD in an account that belongs to one of ourforeign customer who died along with his entire family in aplane crash on monday 31/07/2003 in paris.
Since the bank got information about his death we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release the fund unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines and laws but unfortunately we learnt that all his supposed next of kin died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim and our banking law and guideline here stipulates that if such money remains unclaimed after five years,such money will be moved into the banking treasurer as unclaimed fund.
The request of a foreigner as next of kin in this business is occassioned by the fact that the deceased customer was a foreigner and a Burkinabe cannot stand as next of kin. 25% of the total money will be for you as a foreign partner while 5% will be set asite to cover any expensesthat might be incured during the process oftransfering the fund to your nominated bank account.
If you're willing to handle this deal with me kind get back to me with your Private telephone and fax numbers for easy communication/your personal picture to enable me know whom i'm dealling with.I will send to you the application form which you wil apply directly to the bank.
Note:I demand the hightest trust from you to keep this business strictly confidential for security reasons as you may know that the bank don't know that i am the one who contacted you to stand for this claim.
Best regards,
dr momoco

so I reckon
it'll take 37 more
to straighten me up
if,
and only if,
no more crookeding occurs
no reason
I can't enjoy life
in the mean time
let my hands go
let my lips go
where they will
in the mean time
while

i
you know
work on things

fixing myself
all i want to do
is own up
install horns

haven't ben blogging
constantly sharing items from google reader -
they are on the right.
blogging from the phone
is fun,
but better for pics than words
anyway, off to sell candy...
yahoo!
i find myself
embracing the moment
fucking the future
excuses for me and for you
hooray!
have a drink
have a smoke
have a little laugh
at a little joke
fiddlin'
while san diego burns
and new orleans drowns
and the ice caps melt
and my friends go crazy
and my enemies get stronger
embracing the moment
fucking the future
amen
