About Me

...we have to lose ourselves before we can find ourselves...

i went looking...now seeking for the action...reaction...

i'm a former school teacher, certified in three states and a province. i'm now a degree seeker in computer networking and system administration.

...my quest(ing) continues...

i am a member of a first nation, the wikwemikong unceded indian reserve, located on manitoulin island, ontario, canada. since i was born in michigan, i have dual citizenship...there is no imposed border for me.

bezhgiizhig was my grandfather's name given to me, having a meaning of "one cedar standing"...i'm still standing.

i created wood to get rid of my nickname chief. ...we care alot...

Heroes:

A hero speaks...
...but words can be the illusion and the illusion can be words...
i seek for more words...to make more sense of this illusion...and these are my heros:
John Trudell
..
Noam Chomsky
..
Rage Against the Machine (before they redirected)
...freedom is not given, it is taken...
..
John Stewart (with Bush's words)
..
...and yes, there are my NON-HEROS...those that use words to perpetuate an illusion...
..
...who's the fool...
..
...and who is the joke...

YOU CAN THINK FOR YOURSELF, IF YOU PUT YOUR MIND TO IT.
..
...somethings gotta give...The John Butler Trio, from Australia
..
...come together...(amazing cover)...
..
wow, i've never been so obsessed about the mass media. i'm finding good recorded pieces. i find it hard to believe that so much evidence of our illusion is in our faces, and yet it still feels like we take a blind eye.
damn it john stewart, you fucking rock!!! cnn and fox are ridiculously standing on nothing but political hot air. ...truly, to compare a comedy network to a real news station, on the freaking news station. congrats to comedy central for a simple and completely reassuring plug from our trusted, biased commentators, we get the opportunity to tolerate, in our free country of the pompus ass wealthy [and damn it], banking on and cashing in on ignorance. {triple, damn it!!}
.. .. ..
...it started with the Dixie Chicks, bless their soul, and continues today through comedy...'cuz what the hell else can we do about these wrongs, by the wrong-doers...
