Think Progress � Administration Outsources Operations Of Six U.S. Ports To The United Arab Emirates: "The Bush administration has outsourced the operation of six of the nation’s largest ports to a company owned by the United Arab Emirates (UAE), a country with troubling ties to international terrorism. The $6.8 billion sale would mean that the state-controlled Dubai Ports World would control “the ports of New York, New Jersey, Baltimore, New Orleans, Miami and Philadelphia.”"
Well, at least Houston is not on the list.

cheney - the most dangerous game

See! See!
"Trance-formation of America" = best book ever!
I wasn't surprised Cheney shot someone,
just surprised it was an old man and not a little girl.

David Icke, Lizard People & Symbols (article) by Silvia Hartmann on AuthorsDen
David Icke, Lizard People & Symbols (article) by Silvia Hartmann on AuthorsDen: "I've always been rather fascinated by David Icke and what he has to say for himself.
He's clearly an intelligent, compassionate person who is determined to make a change in this world, and there he stands and goes on about how US presidents turn themselves practically into gigantic lizards and drink the blood of babies whilst worshipping a large owl.
In all sincerity.
A lot of 'lizard' type illuminati conspiracy theories revolve around the use of symbols, hidden, mystical meanings, intent and symbols in buildings, street layouts, and most everything the secret rulers of their human slaves are producing.
David Icke angrily says often, 'They are completely OBSESSED with symbols!' "

We Licke Icke
We Licke Icke: " * David Icke believes that the former US President George Herschel Walker Bush is a lizard and a drug dealer.
* The Washington Post believes that former US President George Herschel Walker Bush is not a lizard, and not a drug dealer.
* Adequacy.org believes that former US President George Herschel Walker Bush is not a lizard, but is a drug dealer.
So, it appears that we disagree with Icke on the subject of whether Bush was a lizard, and with the Post on the subject of whether Bush was a heroin pusher. And the fact is that, while it's more or less impossible to prove one way or the other whether Bush is an Annunaki lizard from the fourth dimension, it's very easy indeed to show that Bush was the head of the CIA during the period in which Air America was carrying opium by the ton from Burma and Laos to the heroin labs of Hong Kong and Saigon, from whence it was sold to American GIs. So it appears that David Icke makes a claim that is pretty difficult to believe, with not much evidence in favour of it, while the Washington Post is asking us to believe something in the face of a vast amount of conclusive contradictory evidence. Furthermore, while Icke's organisation is supported almost entirely in the free market by selling books and videos to the public, the Washington Post is bankrolled partly by the CIA, and partly by the Reunification Church of the Reverend Sun Myung Moon, a bona fide cult."
You know I love David Icke, right?
I'm still not sure how we're supposed to defeat the reptiles with love though.

Noam Chomsky on sports
Hope everyone enjoyed their superbowl...

Take it away, Noam...
Noam Chomsky on sports: "Take, say, sports -- that's another crucial example of the indoctrination system, in my view. For one thing because it -- you know, it offers people something to pay attention to that's of no importance. [audience laughs] That keeps them from worrying about -- [applause] keeps them from worrying about things that matter to their lives that they might have some idea of doing something about. And in fact it's striking to see the intelligence that's used by ordinary people in [discussions of] sports [as opposed to political and social issues]. I mean, you listen to radio stations where people call in -- they have the most exotic information [more laughter] and understanding about all kind of arcane issues. And the press undoubtedly does a lot with this."

insomnia
I'm a prime candidate for Lunesta.
(which scares the hell out of me, by the way, the drug itself,
not that I'm a candidate for it...)
Woke up at 4:30 and by 4:35 I'd allowed myself
to think about "the adding machine" and,
well then there was no stopping it...
and now I have to get in the shower to
get ready for work...
so yeah, I've started work on "the adding machine"...
by work I mean reading it over and over and making lots of notes...
I'm talking to a few folks I'd like to have on the production team,
and I'm eyeing towards putting it up during the next real break I have,
and I have no idea when that will be...or where we'll do it...
although I'd love to get a cast pinned down for a public reading on May Day.
and Charlie and I are thinking about taking "Hamletmachine" and making a Last Bastions album from it...
I've only talked to a possible "Ophelia" so far, but Charlie asked me about it again
yesterday, so hopefully I'll pin her down soon and find our Hamlet too...
anyway, I'm off to the shower so I can go file.
got my friend john's car right now or I'd already be on the bike
and on my way...

Ain't It Cool News: The best in movie, TV, DVD, and comic book news.
I knew they'd never show it:
Ain't It Cool News: The best in movie, TV, DVD, and comic book news.:
"If you don’t want to register for the New York Times, then I’ll sum it up quickly. Showtime saw the episode, they freaked out, and they decided not to show it. Considering it’s Miike, that shouldn’t really surprise anyone. Hell, when I was talking to Stuart Gordon about the show before anyone had actually started shooting, I asked him which one would be the craziest, and he started laughing. “Oh, Miike. No question. American TV is just not ready.” Turns out Stuart’s prescient, because American TV indeed does not appear to be ready."
If you wonder how I knew throw "Visitor Q" or "Audition" into yr netflix queue...

National Gorilla Suit Day
National Gorilla Suit Day:
For Melissa:
"National Gorilla Suit Day, which mysteriously falls on January 31 of each year, is perhaps the important holiday of the year. Every National Gorilla Suit Day, people of all shapes and colors around the world get their gorilla suits out of the closet, put them on and go door-to-door."

what do I do here?
sometimes I just link to some political story with little or no comment...
it keeps me from e-mailing it to all my friends...
some of them got tired of that.
and more and more I just write...
some of it is true
and some of it is me
and some of it's malarkey
eventually I'm gonna dig through a lot of these fragments
and try to make some dialogue of it,
or see if there are any snippets
I can save
or whatever...
sometimes I waste everybody's time
trying to justify
and explain
what I'm doing here

you wanna know
you wanna know,
you really wanna know
what I believe?
I believe
knowledge informs perception
EVERYTHING is subjective
and words refer to words.
I believe the children are our future...
that's why I both hate and pity them.
I believe my job is making me crazy.
BWOOOHAHAHAHAHA!
I believe I am capable of great things.
Believing this sincerely means I don't
have to prove anything,
so why bother?
I believe I have to go to bed
now so I can get up and work
on my filer's tan in the mornin'

when I say
I don't believe
in regret
what I mean is,
I'm not saying,
I don't mean to say
that I don't believe
regrets exist
or even that I don't
(cause I do
yes I do),
that I don't
have them.
if I had a grain of sand
for every lost opportunity
I'd have a nice sandbox
at the very least
and I
could fill
a gallery
with pictures of lips
left unkissed
a library
of words unspoken...
what I guess I mean is, well,
it's just not
very productive,
is it?

Warrenellis.com � In Search Of The Next
Warrenellis.com � In Search Of The Next: "Last night I watched a bit of an old documentary about rave culture, BETTER LIVING THROUGH CIRCUITRY, wherein Genesis P-Orridge talks about putting together his pseudonymous early acid house project, Jack The Tab.
I was amused to note that the label on the first pressing had a John Byrne Superman drawing on it. Hard to imagine anyone less acid than John Byrne."
I had that record...
I liked it, but then psychic TV was the first show I ever saw at the axiom.
The Pain Teens opened up, making them the first local band I ever saw...
actually that's not true, I saw Sprawl and probably some others at the perpetual park party the year before and had seen the judy's at astroworld - but the pain teens were the first ones to make me think about doing it myself for real...
and they kicked psychic tv's ass...
this is of course completely irrelevant to what mr. ellis has to say in this post...and it's good...so go read it.
"And, you know, it’s entirely possible that Devendra Banhart has enough things in common with Connor Oberst that we are in fact on a journey into the future that ends in a bedroom stinking of cheap beer and incense with tear-stained wankrags under the bed and a copy of Johnathan Livingstone Seagull on the floor."
