| Wrong place to live and really the wrong place to die |
| 05.27.06 (10:33 pm) [edit] |
|
I'm living here because i have to. they won't let me leave yet. I don't want to die in this country because the DEA is still busting physicians for treating pain as they see fit, for "overprescribing" even to the terminally ill.
I'm sick of this blog too. but it's my oldest one.
Just tired of writing things that apperently get read here and there, but never knowing who read the or what they think, or why they even looked? I don't know. Tiresome bother I'd say. If I ever get out of here...I'll...I'll...go to Kathmandu

| "Crystal Meth" and other garbage |
| 05.23.06 (5:32 pm) [edit] |
|
I have this tiny little air conditioned corner of the universe for which I am grateful to no end, the direct sunlight in the later spring and summer affects my mood in a foul war. My wife aint speaking to me today. It started yesterday after a brief stupid argument. I'm trying to take the "let it be" view, and work on my own shit, mind my own business, but there are just to many things about my life that don't make sense. I have to keep reminding myself that if I go out looking for trouble, I will find it, and if it's not my night, I could be back in prison so fast, and I just know they will piss-test me again. I would like to (elsewhere) look at the latest media hysteria "Crystal Meth". It's not new. It's always there. It may fluctuate in popularity but it never goes away. The reasons for this latest (supposed) increase in popularity are uncertain, but the news commentators use language peppered with words designed to shock respectable viewers into believing there is a crisis at hand so that they tune in for next installment of the feature on the next day's news.
I agree, that people with bad meth habits should not be allowed to be parents if the insist on continuing the behavior, and people who cook meth in the same house, even the same room as children are just dangerous idiots.
But what I see, is poor people getting busted. Meth seems to be the drug for the trailer park set. I know it was during my trailer park days.
When the media wants to make it look like some social phenomenon is on the rise, it simply increases its coverage. During the years between the Nixon regime and now, the crime rate stayed about the same, maybe even dropping a little. But media coverage of violent crime increased by 600% to 800%
with a correponding increase in prison populations, and therefore profits, for the private prison industry, and for those who sell supplies to the state and federally owned prisons. The increase of police presence, as well as increasing number of ex-cons, and working prison guards living among all of you is pushing the entire country in the direction of its becoming one big minimum to medium security prison. Some say we're already there.
So I'll do my time here where the air conditioning works.

| Hugo Chavez, the next boogeyman? |
| 05.21.06 (10:02 pm) [edit] |
|
A tough, popular socialist president of an oil-rich Central American country, Hugo Chavez is getting some mixed reviews in the US media. He's survived one attempted military coup already. The poor of his country are solidly behind him, because he has been able to deliver measurable improvements to the quality of life, as well as NBA basketball to Venezuelan TV viewers. The Shrub doesn't like him.
We seem to either use covert action and right-wing terror (i.e. the Iran Contra affair) or outright war
(like Noreiga's "arrest") and the whole Beavis Bush and Saddam Butthead show, American boys rocking into battle in tank and helicopters to the sound of Drowning Pool "Let the bodies hit the floor, let the bodies hit the floor..." Hugo Chavez seems to be getting ready for a fight, making massive weapons purchases, and recruiting a civilian homeguard from a ready and willing populace.He's not getting ready to invade anyone. He sees the writing on the wall. There's been nothng but one dumbass war after another as long as I can remember, starting with my little brother's birth in the middle of the "Cuban Missile Crisis". I'm 46, closing on 47 fast and things suck just as badly as ever.
Violence is a function of authority. All violence is inherently authoritarian in nature, even the violence of "revolutionaries" and "anarchists".
When the bombs and bullets start flying, the discussion is over, it's just everyone saying "because I said so" at the same time.
They call Chavez a dictator. There is no question that he is tough and ruthless. Has history left him any other choice?

| Anti-Sex on the bus |
| 05.21.06 (9:47 pm) [edit] |
|
Large anti-sex poster on the side of the bus today,
saying teen sex won't just go away if we ignore. I've been ignoring it since I stopped being a teenager, which was a very long time ago, but I had lots of sex in my teens and it was a good thing.

| Never got a proper understanding of a "work day" |
| 05.17.06 (6:12 pm) [edit] |
|
Yeah, I've worked, alot, for very little money at all, at various times in my life. Today, I accomplished most of what I set out to to, by setting modest and realistic goals, like going to the hardware store.
I'm tired. I'm my own boss, and even if I had the money to do so, I don't think I'd pay myself very much, after seeing how little I accomplish from one day to the next. I needed to buy a dropcloth today, well, not needed, but surely wanted to, and I forgot to even look to see if one was available in the size and color I wanted.
The 'zine is what I'm thinking of most of the time, so I need contributors, sorry, can't pay anyone right now but you can say you've been published by someone other than yourself. If I can get enough people to read the damn thing, then maybe ad space on it will be worth something, and I'll be able to pay for articles. If you can't get there from here, something's really wrong. Photos,and art are needed too. Copyrights will be respected. -D

| Saturday night fears the sunrise |
| 05.13.06 (11:47 pm) [edit] |
|
This doesn't matter, the fact that I could never quite figure out Sundays and have the wish to stay up all night and sleep all day tomorrow. Walked to Rite-Aid drugs a little after nine PM, the pharmacy had closed at 8, so I returned with a loaf of bread, a couple of sticks of butter, some gum and a bottle of water. Halway home I get a call from my better half asking where the fuck i was and if I was alright, because I broke the pattern. I'm usually jusr here, when she gets back. Supposed to sell flowers on mother's day, could make some good bucks but I'm feeling a real desire not to do so. Oh well. We Shall See.

| Friday Night Lame |
| 05.12.06 (10:28 pm) [edit] |
|
Friday night in front of the computer screen, my better half went to AA or something and i went to sleep, getting up about 10 PM to muck around with the blogs and stuff. At least people are starting to look at this one again. This is my 1st blog, the original one. I guess it's true what they say, you have to keep posting. the problem is, that on days like today there's not that much to say. So I'll shut up and if something worth saying comes up later, I'll be back, so stay tuned, if you're watching this page. Later on y'all. -Frenetic D
