_____ The Barbarian!

Hey Nostradamus...

I know why you're lookin' at me that way...
I know exactly what it is you're tryin' to say...
I ain't got no answers man, I never did before,
But your wet eyes tell me that you want more...

So I think about it and now I want to know,
Who the fuck it is telling us to go.
Ney Nostradamus, what've you got against us,
Hey Nostradamus, you didn't even know us...

We look for the answers in each others eyes,
But all we can find are the dripping knives,
Of stabbings, of murders, of suicide,
We're buried below the bodies without a light...

So I think about it and now I want to know,
Who the fuck it is telling us to go.
Ney Nostradamus, what've you got against us,
Hey Nostradamus, you didn't even know us...

If you look real deep you see it deep inside,
This aint the first time the real parish has lied,
But you know I found out who's gonna survive,
Those who can go back, rediscover how to be alive...

Food.

2nd post of 2010 - 2 in a day. Sweet.

Road Tripped.

Once upon a time, I came upon a hat - a Quicksilver Fedora. My friend Dustin had given it to me, cause he was moving away and didn't want it. I wrote his name in it. I threw some pins on it**. I wore it. My buddy Alan & I threw it back and forth. We penned our names in it.

And then I was moving - so I passed my hat on to my friend Omar who traveled out to Canmore, Alberta wearing it. He said he'd passed it on from there...

Where the hat is, who knows?

I long for the freedom of the hat - to be able to road trip all of its life - see a million things, experience a million more.

Warning - Disturbing

This needs to be seen.

This is pretty eye-opening - but it's quite disturbing.

"Fair warning: Extremely disturbing, even if you're used to watching police brutality videos. Please disseminate widely, as it's the only way these types of things get seen. All those articles where you read "police arrest 63, clash with protestors"...well this is the clash they're talking about. And those young kids getting dragged off one by one from the sides and beaten are the people they're "clashing with" and need to be arrested. Oh, and in case it isn't clear why the police are so iron-fisted, they're trying to get a busload of politicians down the street. So now you tell me, who do the police protect?"



Thanks to Nick Lobe for sending me this. Please, look it up. Read on it. If nothing else, it gives you new light on those 'Protesters Clashing With Police'. These kids weren't a militia group - it was a peaceful protest.

Our freedom as humans has been comprimised - maybe we don't feel it individually, but it's things like this going on all over the world that stifle our growth and our freedom.

The wind in your sails...

The wind in your sails
Won't take us much further.
All the scuppers and tags,
Only end up to hurt hurt.

All the bear's insides
Have fallen to pieces.
And the engine ride,
Slowly decreases....

And as the sun comes up over frosted trees,
Alon I breath strength - you are with me.
Count the cars going by - hear my feet cruch,
Time is running out for me, I been passed the conch...
