“I'm worried that students will take their obedient place in society and look to become successful cogs in the wheel - let the wheel spin them around as it wants without taking a look at what they're doing. I'm concerned that students not become passive acceptors of the official doctrine that's handed down to them from the White House, the media, textbooks, teachers and preachers.”
We were not born critical of existing society. There was a moment in our lives (or a month, or a year) when certain facts appeared before us, startled us, and then caused us to question beliefs that were strongly fixed in our consciousness - embedded there by years of family prejudices, orthodox schooling, imbibing of newspapers, radio, and television.
Behind the deceptive words designed to entice people into supporting violence -- words like democracy, freedom, self-defense, national security -- there is the reality of enormous wealth in the hands of a few, while billions of people in the world are hungry, sick, homeless.
Quotes from Howard Zinn 1922-2010

Ha-Ha - Word of the every so often

Why do birds suddenly appear?
Oh you...will I ever meet anyone that will make me laugh so hard? You've captured my heart and the eyes alike.
To all you haters that thought he was acting the first time...fuck you bro. Let's see, if he has an older brother that is also a ginger I wonder what Mr. Gregor Mendel would have to say about the probability of me having a ginger of my own.

The more you know...
About five years ago my best friend and I spent a lovely day at Venice beach with all the other rif raf of Los Angeles. We ate pikza and mini donuts and sat around the drum circle smoking "cigarettes" until we were exhausted from doing nothing all day and decided to go home. During our ten minute walk back to the car past the river and the building with the graffiti mural we turned into a neighborhood and what did we see? A big duck pimp and four raper ducks having their way with a duckette. We were witness to a duck gang rape.
I have been thinking about this event while wondering what happened to the bastard children conceived on that fateful day so I decided to look into the dark world of duck gang rape. APPARENTLY...the duck pimp game is older than the Bishop Don Juan and these ducks are less picky than Wilt Chamberlain.
From my mouth to God's ear...the following was taken from an actual Yale University/ World Science report.
All of these duck shinanigans have led to the evolutionary development of "elaborate penises" and "cryptic vaginas" in the duck world. Basically, the duckette developed a vagina that corkscrews in the opposite direction of the ducks corky penis. It's like trying to put a cap on a bottle and it just keeps turning around and around because the ridges don't match up. Why they don't just lay eggs and fertilize them like other birds...I don't know. Who ever heard of duck coitus? Although...I am pretty sure fellatio is out of the question...what with no lips and all.
"girl...you know I love you...aaaah"
Seriously...imagine how long ducks have been raping for all this evolution to take place. The story continues. They really know how to strong wing a hoe. Since his bottom bitch developed the opposite corkscrew action to counter the screwy penis...he developed spikes on his penis (for traction of course). She responded with a big "fuck me no bitch fuck you" by developing false canals that lead to nowhere so she can't get pregnant by her raper.
And now you know...

For your pipe to smoke
It is not in giving life but in risking life that man is raised above the animal: that is why superiority has been accorded in humanity not to the sex that brings forth but to that which kills - Simone de Beauvoir

Fuck you National Geographic
For decades Russians and scholars alike have discussed the Americanization of the world...globalization blah blah...Coca Cola McDonalds...blah blah...rock music. Recently...the New York Times magazine published and article about the Americanization of mental illness and the spread of the Western interpretation of mental illness.
People against the Americanization of the world implore American's to open themselves up to other cultures and ways of life and to expand their horizons. This has created a niche market for the National Georaphic Channel and the Discovery channel to transport people from their couches to the ends of the earth. But you see...you see what happens.
Fuck you national geographic. What about the Africanization of the world. Will it ever end?! First, the Africanized bees then AIDS and now this crazy bitch in a patchwork skirt...she's not even pregnant...she's just from Oklahoma.

Buy stocks in goat immediately
Afghanistan's national game, buzkashi, is attempting a marketing transformation inspired by pro football's and basketball's growths in the United States over the last several decades, according to a November USA Today dispatch. The main hindrance is that buzkashi is often little more than violent anarchy. A team of 12 men on horseback tries to carry a goat carcass the length of a field, around a goal and back, through an opposing team "defense" that includes almost any tactic short of murder. Spectators are often trampled by riders disregarding boundaries, and horses have dropped dead on the field from abuse or fatigue. The head of the Buzkashi Federation said he aims to present the game for consideration to the International Olympic Committee. [USA Today, 11-18-09]
Now this is how you qualify progress. Thank you America for showing Afghani's the light (by the way Afghani's take note...because America is still waiting for its thank you card...rude). This is a leap in the direction of progress from the old national game and pastime which consisted of grabbing a woman walking on the street and dragging her through town and calling her a whore for an exposed pinkie toe. Have fun Sogol.
