If I can't dance....

I like to procrastinate - a lot. So I am just now filling you all in on this 'about me' crap. I also dislike having people know anything other than the superficial about me - but I like 'em to think they know it all. It's a power trip thing. I'm like an open book written in some unintelligible, completely defunct language that no one gets. I use words like 'unintelligible' and 'defunct'.Three of the most important things in my life are my friends, my music and my activism. (Included in friends is my family because I can't seperate the two groups - I love my friends and family with no differentiation). AND I love when other people can combine the three.My message: I think that if everyone would just quit focusing on everyone else and start focusing on themselves and what is good for them the world would be a better place. That seems odd, but its true. We don't NEED any of the crap we work so hard for and make ourselves crazy over. I don't need to eat out, or to chew gum, or to have a car - let alone an expensive worked up model. I don't need my laptop - although I love it and I certainly don't need to pay excessive sums of money for shoes because they have a bloody 'swoosh' on them, I just need something between my bare feet and the ground when the pavement is like ice. But we think we need these things because the greatly infamous 'they' tell us we need them to be whole people in a modern and civilized society. Bullshit. All we need is each other. And food. And shelter. And clothing. I'm not saying we shouldn't have luxuries, but if we focused on the things that really gave us joy, then we wouldn't find ourselves ravaging one another for crap we don't need and that in the end provides little cold comfort.Love your friends and the people around you. Take care of each other. Fuck them if 'they' tell you any different. Or call me - I'll take 'em on one by one and all alone if I have to.I like to rant and attempt to incite riot....that was my daily rant. It just happens.I also like radio - I used to do two shows on CHRY 105.5 in Toronto. ProPIRGanda noon-1pm on Thursday (Saira is still keeping that show going. Thanks go out to her, the info provided there is really important!), ProPIRGanda does the rant and incite riot thing....political/social issues from the GTA, Canada and the world are hot topics. Also used to do The Metal Union - the best of punk, metal, hardcore and industrial - or whatever else I wanna play. The Metal Union was the project of a loosely formed collective consisting of Sarah, Liam, Brian and myself) The Metal Union no longer exists as the collective broke up, but you can still catch Sarah on punkradiocast.com Wednesdays. Actually that's bullshittoo, she left shortly afer I did. But it's still a good station to tune in to. It's internet radio, you stream it through the PC. You can also webstream CHRY if you can't get the signal. Go to: http://www.yorku.ca/chry. I DJ'ed for punkradiocast.com for a while building a reputation for pissing people off, telling them things they didn't want to hear, and being disgusting and explicit. I used to review porn from time to time, and report on the most interesting sexual and sexualized exploits from my life and the lives of my friends. I may or may not have made a habit of stripping on air from time to time. I loved it. Show was called Rough Me Up, named after a Pantychrist song. Love that band. Cheak out their profile on myspace if you're interested. Tune in to PRC if you get a chance.I miss radio but I stopped doing it because I rediscovered an old way of including both politics and music in my life. I moved to Winnipeg in January 2006 to help reform the Brat Attack. One of my favorite political punk bands at the time. They're on here too. Check them out if you're interested. But I left the band in March to come back to Toronto so there will be no Mary love in that direction. I'm in another band now. Old country in the tune of Cash and Parsons. Weird I know. But I love it. We're on here too. The name's Deep In the Ninth. The recordings on there are older and just Willis but over the summer we'll be recording and I'll let y'all know when we manage to upload it. If you happen to be around when we're gigging come up after the show and say hi. I promise not to bite unless it's invited, I swear! If you're interested in jamming or starting a heavier band let me know. I wanna sing sing sing. Although apparently I'll be playing bass soon? Ugh....right Dames?I DO NOT RANDOMLY ADD FOLKS. REPEAT NO RANDOM ADDS. I have enough virtual friends as it is. If you want an add say something useful first by which I can judge whether or not the effort of virtual friendship is worth it.I like to go off in all directions, on tangents and long winded pathways. I don't always know when to stop. Smiles. Stopping now.
