Back in the USSA

Thursday, March 31st, 2005

You don’t know how lucky you are, hey.

Imagine a European Union like collection of states right in our back yard. Oh something like, say the United States of South America?

Three wise men

Wednesday, March 30th, 2005

Just a quick selection today. These three were in my head all day in one form or another. Now I’ll share them with you.

Wayne Shorter

Gene Sharp

Wong Fei Hung

Sketch for John’s Story

I think this is a step in the right direction for this one. Better than the last sketch at least.

Here’s a quick tonal version.

Help Your Family Queen

Tuesday, March 29th, 2005

The above is the title of a spam message I received today. Wherein they were attempting to sell me codeine. I’m not sure if they were appealing to family of flaming pill poppers or what. International rogue pharmacists able to reduce pain for ailing matrons everywhere, act now.

Icelandic Fischer King

Thursday, March 24th, 2005

Bobby Fischer avoids US checkmate by gaining Icelandic citizenship. Lots of very beautiful women in Iceland. The viking marauders dragged every fine looking broad they found in northern Europe back to Iceland to help keep them warm in the winter. Makes for a strikingly gorgeous gene pool. I’d build a long ship if it gave me a chance with Björk. I’m not saying, just saying.

Don’t get me wrong, Fischer is nuts. I do not agree in any form with his anti-semetic remarks nor his celebration of the 9-11 attacks. However he is a very interesting character, and one worthy of considered admiration.

You know what’s funny about Tom delay?

Wednesday, March 23rd, 2005

I don’t even need to rant on this do I? I mean just read the little man’s words. Screw your hipocrisy Tom Delay and double fuck your oligarchy dolled up like a theocracy.

*************************************************************

From the New York Times today:

“One thing that God has brought to us is Terri Schiavo, to help elevate the visibility of what is going on in America,” Mr. DeLay told a conference organized by the Family Research Council, a conservative Christian group. A recording of the event was provided by the advocacy organization Americans United for Separation of Church and State.

“This is exactly the issue that is going on in America, of attacks against the conservative movement, against me and against many others,” Mr. DeLay said.

Mr. DeLay complained that “the other side” had figured out how “to defeat the conservative movement,” by waging personal attacks, linking with liberal organizations and persuading the national news media to report the story. He charged that “the whole syndicate” was “a huge nationwide concerted effort to destroy everything we believe in.”

**************************************************************

Man I fucking wish. You would have to be an idiot to identify with this man. What do you buy snake oil from every charlatan that knocks on your front door? Wake up America! Think for yourself. For once in your miserable life THINK. I’m begging you. This guy would skin his gramma for political and/or fiscal gain. With his back against the wall he uses a woman who’s been in a brain dead vegatative state for fifteen years as a shield! Refusing to see him and his type as false on their face is out and out negligence. Must you constantly be played for a fool America? Must you see only the short term and not the long? Tom delay has cut vetrans benefits, cut medicare and made it much more difficult for families all over the nation to get the insurance companies to pay for treating people with truly reversable life quality effecting ailments. Actions speak louder than words. And ignorance of Tom Delay’s abhorant actions is no excuse. There is no quick fix for society. There is no easy path to a utopian nation. These promises are lies. Those who offer you such are power mongers who would love nothing more than to wrestle this country from the people and rule it as all powerful dictators that they might send your sons, daughters and grandchildren into war on their behalf.

You know what this reminds me off? Rasputin. Yeah that’s right, filthy Rasputin, that self serving manipulative ‘man of God’. Every saint and true keeper of teh faith in history spins in the grave when these pigs spew their bile. Wake up America. They aren’t even giving you a decent reach around.

Ah it’s hopeless isn’t it. You’ve all been duped. Well a pox on you and your bloody delusions. You’ll reap what you sow you sorry bastards. Build your fences, hide in your holy house and throw stones at the non believers. All while your great nation is eclipsed and eaten from the inside by the corporate rot. The social safety net colapses the ‘thousand points of light’ fail to hold it together, and the whole thing comes down around your pompous/righteous ears. You be sorry you split the flock and traveled with Lot. Oh yeah I was talking about tom delay, not trent lott…

I couldn’t avoid this rant. I tried, lord knows I tried…

hugs and kisses,

Band name: The Vegetative Statesmen

Coasting into a week without class. Spring is full on sprung here in Portland.

Here’s the portrait of Adrienne that I painted for the final project in my watercolor class. It is somewhere around 36″x24″. I hope to finish it up a little and give it to her parents.

Here’s a closeup.
