At 8P EDT/7 CDT, they’re doing Spike Lee’s project, “Children of the Storm,” and Andersen Cooper will be doing some drama-queen shit after that, about Katrina and the LACK of a comeback, and why, and I don’t have cable up in this L’Hotel Du Fucktards. So, if any of y’all have a blank tape lying [...]

Temple of the DogHunger Strike I don’t mind stealing breadFrom the mouths of decadenceBut I can’t feed on the powerlessWhen my cup’s already overfilledBut it’s on the tableThe fire is cookingAnd they’re farming babiesWhile the slaves are workingThe blood is on the tableAnd their mouths are chokingBut I’m growing hungry I know it’s hard for [...]

And as always, he is right the fuck ON. Go over, learn, feel what it’s like from inside Orleans Parish lines. And help him celebrate John McFonda’s birfday allllllllll over again. If anyone doesn’t recall the oh-so-tasteless timing of his 69th birfday celebration, (which I find hard to believe) let me know and I’ll happily [...]

(Editorial note: I still can’t write about Katrina. I wasn’t there. I still haven’t looked at the body count lists to see who else that I knew was amongst the dead. Barry Cowsill was enough of a loss. But I thought that Mags’ contribution was worth a rerun. Nothing that WE didn’t already know, granted, [...]

Nick Spitzer is covering the music of New Orleans over at American Routes. And taking a walk-about.

And for once, I smiled when I read it: Don’t forget, you too can have a suitable-for-framing memento from your credit card company – just click the Paypal button under the UNICEF link in the right-hand column. It’s your chance to brighten up some accounting drone’s dull afternoon, and make him/her go “What the fuck?”

I stumbled across this brilliance at Tennessee Guerrilla Women’s… ELLEN GOODMAN A year of notable setbacks for womenBy Ellen Goodman | August 24, 2007THIS SUNDAY, we will gather once more to pay homage to our foremothers by celebrating the Aug. 26 anniversary of the passage of suffrage. What a year it’s been since we last [...]

Cindy speaking just before the march.(yeah pics suck I know!) Interesting thing – Dennis Kucinich spoke a little before this and then the Pat Scanlon band played. Pat asked all the vets in the crowd up on stage so I went up with the rest. And as soon as he finished his first song I [...]

I first saw this story back in 2005, already 2 years after it happened. Then, finally an update last Thursday. I didn’t have time to write it up, and thought that once it was covered in the NYT, I would be talking about yesterday’s news. But the extent of coverage seems to have sputtered out. [...]

WASHINGTON: Karl Rove, long-time advisor to President Bush, announced his resignation today amidst rumors that a new book by a male homosexual prostitute would finger Rove as secretly gay. Jim Gannon, former reporter for Talon News and rent boy, is publishinga “tell all” book in September tentatively titled “Behind EnemyLines”. Karl Rove apparently fears being [...]

It’s true. In the ’60s and ’70s, Kansas City actually had an Officer Friendly – that was his real last name. Of course, the police administration took full advantage of this happy (for them) coincidence, and Officer Friendly spent much of his time visiting schools and such on his shiny Harley-Davidson police motorcycle. Essentially doing [...]

If I don’t post this shit tonight, my head is going to explode off of my fucking neck. Those of you who’ve been around me for a while already know that I was pimped-out by my so-called “parents” to their precious golden Son-King at the age of about 20 months, because I was hyperlexic and [...]

Took some Fotos to share with you if you like…. link in the title. And oh-OH…. We interrupt this nice hint to report: I was just checking before publishing, and all of a sudden, there was this funny yellow box at the top of the page, tiny with a link, and it was about contacting [...]

From the Toronto Star: Aug 21, 2007 09:14 PM Canadian Press OTTAWA – Protesters are accusing police of using undercover agents to provoke violent confrontations at the North American leaders’ summit in Montebello, Que. Such accusations have been made before after similar demonstrations but this time the alleged “agents provocateurs” have been caught on camera.

Yes, you read that correctly. I wouldn’t have thought the two to be connected either. But I ran across this today, and had an a-ha experience. My three step sisters are half African American. And the few times I saw them as a kid, I was amazed at what they had to straighten their hair. [...]

Wednesday August 22, 2007 4:46 AM DALLAS (AP) – Paramedics were called to the Maine seaside vacation home of former President Bush and his wife, Barbara, on Tuesday after one of the couple’s houseguests became ill. Update: “John C. Jansing, the husband of Bush’s cousin Shelley Bush Jansing, was taken by paramedics late Tuesday to [...]
