About Me

..   I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)

"There is a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part; you can't even passively take part, and you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop.

--Mario Savio, 1964

Something I Learned Today / Never Look Straight In the Suns Rays

As people who know me know, I have never bought the 9/11 bullshit. On the afternoon of the very day, after watching it go down not on TV but from the roof of my work in the Bronx, after I walked acros...

Freedom of Speech and crap like that...
