dedicated to the crossing guard

only talk on this
only talk right
only watch on this
only watch right
only work on this
only work right

who knows?
who knows?
who knows?

you got a right
to meet up
and jam
to be
gone


I asked Don Bolles in a Myspace email if he had ever heard of this band, seeing as how he's in L.A. He said no but "nice name though." It probably is the best band name in the history of education and love. I also told Don that I felt I was a better poet than Darby Crash. I take that back. What do I see in California, anyway? Man, this album is amazing. Thank-you, California. Thank-you Black Flag, X and the Germs. Thank-you Walt Disney and Marilyn Monroe. Thank-you everything else that makes this and that right now. Nice colors. Nice pidgeons or bats. I don't know much about birds but I borrowed a book from my parents (which I gave to them as a Christmas gift) and I am ready to get started on the next phase of my journey.
I have a radio show on CKDU called Dawn of Tomorrow. It's not the best radio show but I have pretty decent taste in music. The guy before me plays reggae. The people after me are a theatre troupe.
The other day I was using the Internet and Selwyn looked over my shoulders and said "where do we go to find out who's talking about us?"

I am confused about how to participate in Capitalism. Should I take the money and run or would I end up not having much money at all if I did that, or should I just go around stapling garbage to telephone poles?
The guy on the radio (CKDU, Halifax) just said that parents you got to be role models for your kids. It really warmed my heart. One time on the radio, I expressed sympathy for Charles Manson or just said I thought he was funny. I just want to say right now that I am glad that there are not a lot of Charles Mansons out there. I suppose that he makes bookstores interesting, but in these hard economic times, there are more important things to do than read about Charles Manson. We could perhaps replace Charles Manson with more honourable people who have made an impact: your parents for instance. They may not seem like they understand non-duality, but they drove you to soccer practice. And soccer may seem more boring than Hitler and Charles Manson but I don't think so. Sometimes the big ideas are just like spirals in the movie and comic Uzumaki. Big ideas can drive you crazy. Sometimes it's best for you and your world not to be crazy.
