Only the gods know how and why you've stumbled upon this page. That being said... I am Ian Bowman Bitchtooth (or Ian-Hole, whichever you fancy) and admittedly, there's not much about myself that one should want to know. I'm just some young, punk-ass, broke-ass, unemployed college student who struggles to make sense of this world while maintaining a tenuous grip on sanity. I used to live in a house called The Zombie House in Chico with four or five others where they host shows a few times a month. Originally hailing from the beacon of complacency and ignorance known as Redding, I lived in Chico for a hair shy of three years before being forced to return by a heinous landlord who shall remain nameless (though my Chico friends could probably tell you who it is). I'm burnt out on the punk scene for the most part, but still manage to get out to a show whenever I have the money and the inclination. I keep myself sane by going to class, writing, listening to music, and just being a nerd. I'm probably the most self-conscious person you'll ever meet.
Why don't we all strap bombs to our chests
and ride our bikes to the next G7 picnic?
It seems easier with every clock tick.
But whose will would that represent?
Mine? Yours? The rank-and-file's?
Or better yet: the Government's?
But I don't want to catalyze
or synthesize the second Final Solution.
I don't want to be the
Steve Smith of the Revolution.
Do you see the analogy?
We're the Oilers.
The World Bank- the Flames!
And just 2 minutes remain in
the 7th game of the best of 7 series!
Yeah, Jesus saves! Gretzky scores!
The workers slave.
The rich get more.
One wrong move and we risk the cup.
So play The Man, not the puck.
Why don't we plant a mechanic virus and
erase the memory of the machines
that maintain this capitalist dynasty?
And yes, I recognize the irony that
the very system I oppose affords me the luxury
of biting the hand that feeds.
But that's exactly why priviledged
fucks like me should feel obliged to whine
and kick and scream
until everyone has everything they need.
