I thought this was appropriate...

Rage Against the Machine
Guerrilla Radio

Transmission third world war third round
A decade of the weapon of sound above ground
No shelter if youre looking for shade
I lick shots at the brutal charade
As the polls close like a casket
On truth devoured
Silent play in the shadow of power
A spectacle monopolized
The cameras eyes on choice disguised
Was it cast for the mass who burn and toil?
Or for the vultures who thirst for blood and oil?
Yes a spectacle monopolized
They hold the reins, stole your eyes
All the fistagons the bullets and bombs
Who stuff the banks
Who staff the party ranks
More for Gore or the son of a drug lord
None of the above fuck it cut the cord

Lights out guerilla Radio
Turn that shit up

Contact I highjacked the frequencies
Blockin the beltway
Move on DC
Way past the days of bombin MCs
Sound off Mumia guan be free
Who gottem yo check the federal file
All you pen devils know the trial was vile
Army of pigs try to silence my style
Off em all out that box its my radio dial

Lights out guerilla Radio
Turn that shit up

It has to start somewhere
It has to start sometime
What better place than here
What better time than nowAll hell cant stop us now
All hell cant stop us nowAll hell cant stop us now
All hell cant stop us now
All hell cant stop us now
All hell cant stop us now

The LONG and short of it...

Last night I began reading the Lord of the Rings books to get me in the flow of Fantasy again as I prep for the drawing of the comic, for it is set in this type of time period rather 16th, 17th and 18th century pirates. And don't get me wrong I love the movies and find them extremely phenomenal, however after reading the first 100 pages I am totally transfixed on the story and find the movies rather dull in story compared to these books. I love the dialogue and the imagery is so superb that I do not even see Elijah as Frodo. It may sound like I am speaking ill of the movies when I am not. They are like a dream and capture the books wonderfully, but the books themselves are so breathtaking that no movie could actually capture the sheer grandeur that is these books.
Anyway, I was sick Monday and Tuesday, it was strange I could do most things for a little while, but if I exerted myself I would just crash no energy. It was like I had a fever, but I could not find the thermometer to verify this. I tossed and turned Monday night until 4am when it seemed that whatever was plaguing me broke its hold and I slept until Kim got up to work, which was about 6am. I continued to feel better all day Tuesday and did some work from home and slept. The strange thing about being sick is always the weird dreams. My weirdest fever dream is one where I am a strong man in a circus you know the bald guy with handle bar mustache, wearing the tiger skins and wrestling boots. Well in the dream I am trying to lift a match, the strike anywhere kind, and I can't do it. It pains me so much that the dream usually was followed by me waking up and me running to bathroom to... well you know it was the Flew you figure that part out.
Well, the short we had a meeting yesterday here and they basically told us that they are giving raises only to people who are below industry standards. Here is the rub, I work for a start up company and they started 5 years ago and well we are growing. However, my fellow co-workers, in the back office or tech support department and me are being told we are important but not worth more than what they pay us for. I really need a new career. I am going to go back to school to finish my degree, but I am struggling with direction. I want to do something in Art, but I want to get paid. So I was thinking graphic arts and advertising. I am waiting right now to hear from the art institute of Portland. Catch you all later.

Pow, Wap, Blam, Kerblouweeee?

Hmm.This weekend was phenomenal. A few things happened that were fun and beautiful. Friday I left work early and slept all day long, boy I needed it to the week had been so long and tiring emotionally, spiritually, and physically. Friday Kim and I just hung out total veg fest in fact I really can't even remember what we did. Saturday was mostly a blur, tons of errands and I attempted to see Sky Captain, but it just did not happen. The best part about Saturday was hanging out with a bunch of friends Johnny & Beth, Bonnie & Eric, and Peter and Marissa at there house having a few drinks and watching twilight zone which totally rocked. As the Alcohol consumption continued hilarity ensued from everyone telling embarrassing stories. I commented that if I won Power ball that I would begin my Political Career ramping up for the 2008 Presidential Election. MY platform would be a reform Platform with three main goals. First would be congressional reform where in I would break the strangle hold of lobbyist and big business have on the US legislative branch...not quite sure as to how I would go about it, but it would be more directed at gifts and financial compensation for voting certain ways. Secondly, Election reform, Getting rid of the out dated Electoral College. I believe it is the biggest slap in the face to all United States citizens, we are informed and we do not need someone else to voting for us. Of course now that I think about it I have forgotten my third goal, probably had too much Makers. Sunday was most beautiful. I left Church feeling so full like you feel after a holiday meal. I spoke with Michael about the Pirate comic...wait hold on you know nothing of the pirate comic. Today will be a stream of consciences of thoughts...Thursday was men’s movie night and Kim brought home with her Mike and Thad, Joey Joined us for a little while and Daniel Otto showed early and he and I prayed through some dark old crap that is not me anymore. It was just plain amazing. After watching the 2 episodes of Band of Brothers I built a fire and we chatted it up. Mike had come up with this brilliant Idea for doing a comic in the Pirate genre. Why is this brilliant, well I do not know of any comic has ever been done in the pirate genre. Anyway, there was a wonderful exchange of Idea's and creativity is flowing. So Sunday Mike shared the basic plot with me I am stoked and I cannot wait to draw some of this and to flush out the costumes and Characters. Well, back to work. Peace to all and may your lives be filled with blessing.

Words

The strange this that our minds do. See I wasn't sure if I was going to get very spiritual here or not or allow that part of my self out here. But transparancy is good. This weekend I was a church retreat with several of my most dearest friends and some of you who may be reading this were there as well. Actually this starts a couple of weeks ago. I began a bit of a Journey into finding who I am, where am I going, and what does this all mean, type thing. Well, what most people don't know is that God through prayer and and the inner working of the Holy Spirit has torn down walls of hidden abuses in my life. So, what does that mean definatly please keep me in your prayers and forgive me if I seem a bit more emotional.

Dear Digory

Wonderful! The little things always make life fun. Why should I blog? The real question is why have I not been blogging for years. I mean I am on the computer like 60 hours a week. For the love of Pete, I spend way to much time in front of a computer monitor. No wonder I feel soulless most of the time. This abomination that I am typing this on is stealing my soul........... Well maybe not, but I am sure here a lot so I might as well put down my thoughts. And Digory, well diary just seemed over used so Digory will be playing that role for me as I delve into the recesses of my mind and develop these artistic talents I have been so graciously been given.
