The long dusty whining trail home?
KROQ of Stuff. Dug the show? Well, come see what else we've made up about your favorite artists. Mandy Moore She's only 15 years old, so already singer Mandy Moore is just "lolita-ish" enough for us to abuse the hell out of her in an advertising sort of way. The life that you can only dream of.

Not tomorrow, not next week. For

joy, joy. I put Badi Assad on 
repeat. NA MU MYO HO REN GE KYO!

TO BE SUNG TO "RUDOLF THE 
RED-NOSED REINDEER"
...its about giuliani
RUDOLPH, THE HARD-NOSED FASCIST
    By Sananda Dec 4, 1999:
     
You know Safir, and Cohen, 
and Kerik, and Turner; Kuriansky, 
and Goodman, and Osterreich and 
Hess.
     
But do you recall, the most 
famous fascist of all?
     
Rudolph, the hard-nosed fascist
Had a very slimy nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it grows
     
All of the other fascists
Used to laugh and call him names
They would never let poor Rudy
Play in any fascist games
     
Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Satan came to say:
Rudolph with your nose so mean
Bust the homeless!
Make the city clean
     
Then all of the fascists loved him
As they shouted out with glee
Rudolph the hard-nosed fascist
You'll go down in history!

I hereby request that you discontinue my subcription and delete me from your deleted e-mail addresses sometime soon. Confused in Boston [ed note: we WERE in the pentagon, just not in ways you would ordinarily think. http://www.frucht.org/marco1.jpg ] Marc, Were you in Seattle for the WTO thing? I am looking for somebody who could write about it from the anarchopacifist point of view for Ahimsa, We are at: http://members.xoom.com/AhimsaZine We are a small network of nonviolent anarchists who are working to bring together peace and freedom. Solidarity - Dick Martin Thanks for the nice words. I actually thought the coverage would improve over the course of the meetings -- I was wrong. This is one of the worst blackouts I've seen. Jay. i cant believe you put the waffle house link in there. i cant tell you how many times that's been the only open restaurant while i'm on site somewhere south of mason-dixon - anon -=-ATTN: Sabra. If you can read this, please send your addy again... -=- [PAWN] - Excerpts From A First Person Seattle Account. by Prime Anarchist. Special to PAWN World Newz. The most worthwhile first person account of Seattle's Tuesday victory over Multinational Corporations was very long. Rather than asking ATI's news board to consider going 50K for the next issue, I made a quick editorial decision to cull out excerpts that I thought were the most helpful to those of us who wish to know what really really went on besides what the no-longer-credible (my opinion, I stand by it) "legitimate press" may attempt to disseminate. The account is titled: By a WTO Protestor. It begins "I got on a Greyhound bus in Pittsburgh at 3:00am," The signature at the end has first and last name. I will only put here that his first name is Damon. The rest of this piece is in Damon's words. I will leave you with the following thought as you read this. "George Orwell lives." I'm sorry if all you know about Orwell is his big brother book, because that's not what I'm talking about at all. You'll see. signed, -=gonz=- [FIRST PERSON ACCOUNT] From time to time ambulances would come through and the crowd would clear a path immediately. Some protesters said, "What if WTO delegates are sneeking in on the ambulances?" But people came to an immediate concensus that, although that was a possiblity, it wasn't worth risking people's safety. Suddenly, a WTO delegate made it unnoticed through our lines. But when he made it to police they refused to let him enter. They turned back another delegate later. --------------- [ excerpts only. ] --------------- Against non-violent protesters, they used pepper spray, clubs, tear gas, and later fired rubber bullets and marbles at the people. In every single instance I witnessed first hand, police violently attacked non-violent protesters with no provocation whatsoever. That was the case when I was beaten and sprayed, that was the case when downtown was flooded with gas, with helicopters flying overhead shining spotlights down into the crowd. The police chased them into a business area and fired tear gas into crowds that were now made up of shoppers and people getting dinner as well as protesters. Finally, after 12 hours of people being beaten and gased, a small riot broke out. A Starbucks coffee store was damaged and looted. I'm amazed it took this long to happen, and I say this in all honesty from being here first hand, that, by repeatedly attacking and torturing non-violent protesters, the Seattle police sought to incite a riot and finally succeeded to a small degree. One newscaster said, "Come on, get a life. We live in a prosperous country." In all honesty, the news is scaring me more than the riot police, because what it has done is justify further violence against the protesters. They have said that "police have been too lenient." The police have used teargas, pepper spray, clubs, rubber bullets, and marbles against peaceful civilians in downtown Seattle. The only thing they haven't done is used live amunition. And in the event that greater violence occurs against protesters, the media will have justified it. [/FIRST PERSON ACCOUNT] [PASS] a prime anarchist short snippet. Rally this Sunday, December 12 Stafford, California (basically if you're reading this right now, you're missin') As another winter of high winds and freezing rain pounds Northern California, 25-year old Julia Butterfly Hill will reach her second year sitting 180' high in a giant redwood called Luna on Friday, December 10, 1999. A rally will be held to honor her efforts on Sunday, December 12, at 10am in Stafford, California in Humboldt County, 240 miles north of San Francisco on Highway 101. A benefit concert featuring Bonnie Raitt and Joan Baez is scheduled for Wednesday, December 8 in Redway, CA. Julia has been keeping this tree-top vigil on a tarp-covered platform to stop Maxxam/Pacific Lumber Company from completing a timber harvest plan that dooms the 1,000-year-old redwood tree she has called home since 1997. http://www.lunatree.org Second black mesa memory by marco I pull up to a gas station in hopiland behind a guy in a nice ride who's honking at the man with the medium length black hair in the attendants booth. There's a restaurant behind him. I remember having had a hopi taco or a navajo taco - I never remember the difference. And a salad. The man's hollaring out his window, "could you hurry up? I got places to go." "I'll be out in a second." He's looking down concentrating on something and there's a glow surrounding him. I cut the motor and go in and get a soda to go. Somewhere between lukewarm and cold. "Hurry up" says the man in the shiny car. "Hold your horses," man looking down. I come out, pop the soda top, wander over to the man looking down. Still aglow. "Wow," I say, "whatcha makin'?" "Kachina." "Gotta get to a stopping point for some belagonna." "I know whatcha mean," I tell him, and "Wow, that's wood? It's beautiful." "Thanks," he says. "I'm trying to finish it today." He smiles and looks at me for the first time. I smile back. I go back in my van and play some guitar. In a little while he comes out and starts pumping gas for me first so the guy in the shiny car calls him a "fkkng injn bsstrd, I was here first." The man in the medium length black hair waves to him and doesn't look up, just finishes my gas, makes change and goes back in to put his money away before waiting on the guy in the shiny car. I drive off wracking my brain trying to remember who in my family taught me to hold my horses. I don't remember 'til the next day I'm herding sheep. It's my swedish boatbuilder grandfather the carpenter in connecticut. He's about 85 now. Lives in one of the Masonic Home and Hospitals. We don't agree on very much. Just taking deep breaths first thing in the morning for a long time before starting your day. I can't wait to visit him this December. He's one of my heros.
