A good day

"A good day, doesn't have to be your birthday. Doesn't have to be a Friday. A good day, is any day that you're alive."-Paul Westerberg

I can't help but think that is a very valid point. Despite the harsh realities of existence and the fact that only on Friday and Saturday nights do I feel the most like a person....and not a numb zombie. I wonder if he believed it. Shit, if I was Westerberg, maybe I'd believe it too haha.

Can't wait for the new Jesse Malin album.

The Brits are pulling out of Irag and Cheney said it's a sign that things are improving over there. There's a certain point in reality where you have to look in the mirror, and when you see a shitsandwich with extra bloody vagina sauce on it....you have to accept it and go, "Yea I'm a bloody vagina shitsandwich." But nope....Cheney and the monkey puppet look in the mirror and see bars of gold. What a shame. We're such a great country deep down. But our dillusions of grandeur are blinding us all. I watch too many political shows.

I also made the mistake of watching the HBO documentary "Friends of God." it blew my motherfucking mind.....like....you have no idea the people you share this country with. In all honesty, some choose pot, some choose music, some choose God.....but last time I checked, it's the God people who RELIGIOUSLY go to the voting booths and force this countr's political climate to bow down to the idea of "Intelligent design." There's as much merit to it as there is saying, "I'm cool cause my mommy says so." I don't care how cool your mommy is, it don't mean shit, and I don't care how awesome your God is, IT DON'T MEAN SHIT!

I don't mean to undermine people with faith. I mean, shit, I'd LOVE to believe in it. Life would be so better. But as Lewis Black says....."I have thoughts. And thoughts can hurt the whole faith thing.....just ask the Catholic Priests."

I also watched a documentary on the beginnings og the Crips and Bloods called "Bastards of The Party." Amazing fucking documentary, probably one of the best I've ever seen. It ties in very well to my favorite show of all time, The Wire. Man, the Black Panthers knew what was up...it's just sad how gang-banging came out of it....it's like all the thugs kept that idea of wanting power, but just in a totally negative, self defeating way. What a shame. Still got to respect that lifestyle though. It takes balls to enter a lifestyle where your life expectancy is only about 2-3 years.

I totally forgot my original point for writing this haha. Back to work.
