Just a few things

• Res’ new music does not and probably will not satiate me.  It’s been six years…can I get a new style?
• Saul Williams is an excellent writer with a vivid imagination.  His new album is called The Inevitable Rise and Liberation of Niggy Tardust.  The story is interesting.
• Dried cranberries and almonds are an insanely addictive combination…for those of us who can eat nuts.
• Megalomaniac isn’t a common word, but it should be.
• Federal income taxes are voluntary, yet enforced.
• NWA said “F*** tha police” and I concur.  If they became the upstanding citizens they’d like us to believe they were, I’d be willing to reconsider. 
• Most people like being sheep.  Some at least try not to be.  But I’ll only believe they’re not if they hold out for more than one day.  I’ve got bigger plans.
• You can now bottle sunshine.  How nifty.
• John Lennon and Yoko Ono were are right:

I believe that as soon as people want
peace in the world they can have it.
The only trouble is they are not aware
they can get it.
-John Lennon, 1969

The job of an artist is not to destroy but to change the value of things.
And by doing that, artists can change the world into a Utopia where there is
total freedom for everybody.
That can be achieved only when there is
total communication in the world.
Total communication equals peace.
That is our aim.
That is what artists can do for the world!
-Yoko Ono

• Everybody doesn’t think highly of work.
• It’s okay if people don’t like you.  Get used to it.  Some don’t like you right now and never will.
• We have more power than we know.
• Just because you buy it from the grocery store doesn’t mean that it’s food.
