What a cool and adult posting. You should run for office; you'd be a breath of fresh air in politics---honest, honorable, fair, and responsible.

Informative post, objective in an openly subjective sort of way. Thanks for taking a look. You've got a dandy "Random Thriller" premise at your fingertips, starting with this text. Keep us posted, even those of us here in Georgia sometimes needing an outside view, just to make sure we're not seeing things, if you know what I mean.

Theft and Deception Among the Deaf of Perception WHY BUSH’S REELECTION IS IMPOSSIBLE This is not to say that George W.

Youngsters will run you out of town, sirrah! I mean, even in Nigeria, Iran, Saudi Arabia, places that still practice STONING for sex, kids are ready to go to war against their own governments for any policy so stupid as to say, 'thou shalt not have sex.' I'd be with the kiddos, of course, in bidding you a fond farewell. If you don't like human sexuality, you can find other cultures who are much more thoroughgoing in their annihilation of the erotic

WiseFawn!! You and I are always on the same page, at least for all intents and purposes, so to speak. I mean, even though we've never met, or even spoken. It's pretty amazing, isn't it. The heart of the issue is how to be, not only consistent, but constant in placing this sort of information before the hundreds of millions of people whose lives are at stake in the outcomes but who nearly never play a part in coming to terms with the issues.

Yo, Smartaz! Right on!! Your assessment of the stealth politics of legislative protocols is apt, as is your assessment of what is likely to be the main reason the GOP has written off Nevada---the other being that the party will milk the deep pockets of Vegas for cashola anyhow. As to "putting the genie back in the bottle," that's really not the issue. Deconstructing the whole matter is fascinating and important, but it's time cons

Hey JOE! From one real White Man to...another, right? Thanks, keep me posted, and keep sending stuff down the pipeline. We're the true journalists today; most of the hacks working for the press are hypocrites, cynics, and advertising flacks for capitalist hegemony, pure and simple. At least any one of us can get his own story straight, eh?

Hey there, WiseFawn! Ignorant Slut that I am, I'm just now getting around to answering a bunch of comments. I appreciate your input so much. You see not just the generally decent writing and interesting storyline, you recognize how and why these vignettes and stories are plausibly useful and definitely important.

I've written briefly here already about the megatonnage madness that has been abrewing at the Savannah River Site H-bomb factory these last fifty years.

Reply to Easier to be left than right...... in Politics JoeUser Forums

The reason it's 'easier' being SOCIALLY PROGRESSIVE---which many folks, wittingly or unwittingly, label "leftist," a trite non-sequitur, easy to dismiss and demonize---is that the VAST majority of humanity are DESPERATE for social progress. Hence, unless they're very confused or stupid or misled, they see socially progressive thinking as better. It's 'easier', therefore, because social democrats are inherently more in allignment with more of our 'cou

Well, Excellent! I'm going to have to hope that being kin and in college, your sensibilities are socially progressive, so to say. If you consider yourself more of a conservative bent, you will not find much of what I have to say useful. In any case, however, best of luck in your endeavors. If you consider yourself socially democratic, more or less, there are TONS of resources that might benefit you here stateside. Pacifica Radio's

Well now! I've got treatments on so many series and volumes and notions. What follows is, more or less, an actual 'outreach' letter I wrote to a woman I'd never met.

King, apparently, couldn’t find the time or inclination to look into these matters and so manages to see them as establishing a basis for the jury’s conviction and, apparently, for condemning or at least strongly cautioning all teen sexual energy.

Reply to Death in America. in Misc JoeUser Forums

Death is the final insult. Anyone whose bulb lights up realizes pretty early in life that our only certain destination is not one we would choose as our favorite pastime. "It's a great trick, but you can only do it once." I have thought that we need new rituals and thinking about death and dying, in order to nurture new rituals and thinking about living and the possibilities and problems therein. What I envisioned for myself was a party,

Reply to Not Your Usual Anti-American Leftist Take on Iraq in Current Events JoeUser Forums

Excellent piece of writing and thinking. Reminds me to a degree of Gen. Smedley Butler, who retired from the Marines as a Major General after 25 years, primarily in this hemisphere, and then began a career of atoning for the sins of being "a gangster for capitalism." Zinni, obviously, is not as thoroughgoing in his critiique as Butler was, but both of them see some of the same flaws in process and outcome. Thanks for reporting to the rest
