Stephin Merritt! Neil Gaiman!

There are not enough exclamations to express my excitment. Stephin Merritt of Magnetic Fields is working on the musical adaptation of Coraline by Neil Gaiman. Oh my lovelies I am a flutter.

Change of scenery

I finally gave in and changed the template because I couldn't stand the weirdness of that gigantic gap between the post title and the body in the first post displayed. But now the right bar? is sometimes up sometimes down. Crapadoodledoo.

From Friday to Now

I'm a caffiene addict with black lung as a result of lowered immunity from the cumulative affects of exhaustion,smoking, and the first round of cold/bacteria/virus/mutato-thing for this winter. The coughing fits are really scary sounding, like beings from pit of hell are escaping the netherworld via my glass laced throat...and no...I don't get flu vaccinated because I don't believe in it's efficacy....

Que bueno

Fun!

It's not quite genocide...W's going the roundabout way

Then I start thinking about the passivity of our generation. Between 9/11, the war, and the corruption in our political system we're bombarded with disheartening events. What I find so amazing is not the corruption exists but that those behind it don't even seem to be covering their tracks anymore, as though they sense that the nation is so apathetic that short of killing 7 million in an act of outright genocide they can pretty much do whatever they want with little to no consideration to the middle and lower class and especially with disregard to the impoverished.

My professor mentioned in class last night that over the weekend he went to a benefit dinner given by a group comprised primarily of women who were/are prominent activists that who are now in their fifties and sixties. The main topic of dinner conversation was the disparity between their generation and ours. It struck them as strange that we aren't walking the streets protesting every (even ANY) of the injustices that populate this world. They were all wondering when the switch would finally flip for us. I wonder the same thing, in my own passive way.

It's not quite genocide but W and his crew will kill us all eventually. One group at a time
