Buddy McCain T-Shirt
On its own it could be described as an entire universe, the brain. Thoroughly connected to our brain stem which is the essential link to provide the most basic of functions as well as things we have trouble comprehending. We live everyday to stimulate nearly every nerve in our body in one way or another, the sensation our nerve generates wouldn’t be anything ... more
When it comes to adding more members to a band there are upsides and downsides, for instance, there is just that much less room to sleep in the van. When it comes to space, however, when you have so much energy in your music, who needs to sleep?! I was happy to [at the last minute] sit down with Dan and BJ of Part and Labor to inquire of their musical surroundings ... more
I just got off the phone with a credit card company and during the call something occurred to me. This is in addition to them being in a serious state of disrepair. It's pretty clear that Americans are to blame, maybe not at the same level, though a significant amount for the current events of the financial status of this country. Not that we're directly responsible, ... more
I can't seem to understand the state of America, I'll have to include myself in this when I say that we've all slowly dug our own hole. Socially and economically, few have a real understanding of reality or care to acknowledge what it takes to co-exist. Granted we are only here to evolve, though why does it appear that humanity is so beat to shit? We elect this ... more
Hot damn, maybe some people have finally come to their senses. I was watching eagerly as the House killed the bailout and I was finally impressed. Watching a good portion of the debate prior to the vote, which was fierce, I started to feel like the portion that were against the bill had actually read it and realized what it would mean for the general populace ... more
So I took a bit this morning to watch a little of the House Financial Services Committee BBQ of the bailout plan which actually restored a glimmer of my hope in American politics. It appears the over-all feeling is that few think the tax payer should be responsible to bear the brunt of this proposed tossing of 700bn into the wind to see if or how it flies.
I ... more
I'm not sure what scares me more lately, the complete and utter lying that continues to take place amongst the mud slinging that seems to encompass the election (the utter joke of a VP McCain picked is something else), or the leaps and bounds of some peoples efforts that bring us closer to all being tracked.
I find myself feeling a bit perplexed and confused ... more
I don't have much at the moment though one thing I have observed and a bit disconcerting is that Ron Paul makes a lot more sense than Obama or McCain on the current financial turmoil.
I apologize for the link though sometimes that is the nature of the beast. Don't under estimate what was previously theorized regarding a continual and progressive economic ... more
It really doesn't matter if you like Democrats or not, the fact is we need anything but another right-wing cabinet in power. We have come up with Buddy McCain t-shirts to help express our opinion on this matter. Someone asked why we don't have Obama in there as well, and well, we just ran out of time.
The DNC is officially kicking ass in Denver and all ... more
I’ve always been after music and there are those certain times that I’m happy to roll into a great new band or two that can be thoroughly enjoyed. On a recent trip to San Francisco and even just prior, I found myself virtually surrounded by plenty of great new bands. What stands out from this recent experience is the close relationship to folk that all of the ... more
So, what do we do in the face of a failing Social Security program? Give private corporations and banks, specifically Comerica Bank, a piece of the pie by letting them charge their little seen transaction fees at Social Security and the Governments expense. Recently the Social Security administration came to the conclusion that its time move from paper to plastic. ... more
Inspirational; Invaluable; Life as/is Art:Art is/as Life .
Inspirational… Was the response after I sent the web site/trailer to a friend who was visiting the day of the films seemingly final showing in Denver knowing she would likely be interested in seeing it. I was informed of the film though a friends who are themselves very active in the local art community ... more
It's almost so obvious how propaganda is apart of war, though now the government specifically the Pentagon has been caught with their pants down.
The current administration is like a plague of roaches that have spoiled, craweled in and on everything. Though focus should not be swayed from the current task at hand, I do hope the new President will see that ... more
NOTE: This article was written a week before Tim Robbins made his speech to the NAB (National Association of Broadcasters). For reasons of similarity I decided to mention this. If you have not yet heard what he said to some of the most influential people of our era, I highly suggest listening it. AS controversial as some might play this to be, its only ... more
The worst evil in the World
Attributed from the many articles I’ve read over the past few weeks and largely the past few days, the countless conversations held with friends and just the general topic of conversation among others, I’m growingly uneasy. I would figure the majority of the population can attribute the current state/mess we are in to no more than ... more
Some might imagine their future as unsettled, though that may be, there are many proposals of which the masses future would like to be contained. On this verge of what we’ll call an ‘economic reevaluation’, there are a certain number of factors which one should be concerned. Most obvious we have the coming circus of an election at which point we will seemingly ... more
Indeed its been awhile and I have plenty a brewin' in this electron absorbed world. Foremost I wanted to mention for the sake of your own wilting knowledge, if the misinformation you collect hasn't already gotten it in your head; Sole and The Skyrider Band may be coming to a venue near your facile world soon. They are joined by Telephone Jim Jesus and other ... more
From the first time I heard them at Monkey Mania in Denver there was something that stuck me about the sound of Parts and Labor. These days there is plenty of experimental music being created in many different genres, though possibly for more of their experimental side P&L contains a sense of reason beyond the chaos that which one might first realize.
Recently ... more
Thanks for sticking with us during our brief interruption in service. We will now resume regularly scheduled programming…
Yet this has not been a year of failures, however a year of intense changes in seemingly positive direction or directions. While I am one that does not like to close doors, one needs to consider that yet a door may not be closed, although ... more
...Zeitgeist: The Movie!
I've been diving more into the conspiracy of the US and its political elite. After watching numerous documentaries on the Iraq War, IRS, 9-11, and various other juicy bits this one hit me the hardest.
You don't have to believe every piece of it or even any of it, one just needs to let the possibilities sink in. How it goes, like ... more
Wednesday, July 25th, 2007 – US Homeland Security with help from your parents have linked your seemingly innocent summer BBQ attendance with the activities of Al Qaeda. After numerous attempts to contact your Parents, success came on July 22nd, 2007 for operation 'No American Left Unfettered'. "The threat is real, it has only grown since 9/11, and I am pleased ... more
Coming to you live from the well organized patterns of natural and synthetic materials, my repetitive finger movements bring you the following...
Today I'm on the topic of our government's ongoing suriade to continually corral its people and their activities. What really bothers me more is the people's willingness to let so much of this happen. Simply we have ... more
It's there, you just don't realize it.
About halfway through June I was seriously puzzled. This time not about any kind of social, commercial, or political BS. No, this time its direction of life itself.
When you have a job your content with, even if you’re not content, one can have a hard time distracting themselves from the boxed work-socialize-sleep ... more
Living less then 100 yards from the train tracks can have its draw backs. You've really never heard a train until you've heard it hooking up boxcars or throttling up to push 20 cars from a dead stop. Talk about raw horse power... Well the good side is being able to see Art that travels the country.
I won't go into a rant here, although there is a stark ... more
I have no idea how random this shit really is sometimes. We have a new Windows Visa computer which serves some 2004 randomized MP3's all day at my work, less than 100 of these MP3's are Sage Francis, Sole or Ice Cube. For some reason, however, what I hear the majority of the day are those artists.
While we're on the subject; my Archos goes through long stints ... more
