On Starting a movement

Something happpened and maybe, just maybe I’m finally coming out of it. I just couldn’t get myself motivated. I was struggling with keeping up my letter writing. I just had the hardest time trying to put out the letters I was supposed to be writing. Then at the same time, I just couldn’t make myself draw anything and I guess you’ve noticed this blog hasn’t been progressing very well.

This has happened before, but never this long. Maybe it has a scientific name like “Writers bock”… I just don’t know. I was trying to write a short story and I finally finished it, but I don’t think its all that good so it’s just lingering there waiting for me to re-read it and do some editing and then I hope I don’t just tear it up.

I’ve had some good ideas lately, but I haven’t carried through with them on this blog. I guess I just get overwhelmed with all the crap I hear and I just feel helpless… Well, I’m going to try to ignite a revolution. I’m sick and tired of watching that mess in the Gulf of Mexico. Congress is trying to squeeze out some confessions from those responible for the accident and no one wants to be the fall guy. Well… do you know who I think is to blame for this whole crappy mess? Well, I’m gonna tell you. We’re to blame for the mess. Us little guys all over this country. We gotta have our gas and our airconditioners, and light bulbs and on and on and on. We gotta light up this country so much at night that you can see the shape of this county from outter space. I’d say thats’s way too many goddamned night lights. We wouldn’t hace a whole gulf full of foul smelling oil if we’d just turn off half of all the damned lights shinning (for nothing) in the middle of the night. What the hell is the use of a lit up sign on the highway advertizing carpets if the business is closed and its three oclock in the morning? Why do we need a goddamned yard light on in the middle of the night and one and on and on. I challenger the world to turn off all the lights they don’t absolutly need. It would be wonderful to see the sky and the stars again at night. Turn off half the lights in this county and we wouldn’t have oil Crisis. I want to hear those power companies howl when the load drops and they start losing money and we take our darkness back. Do it!

And as for the stupid racist law the state of Arizona has enacted… I think everyone, and especially the Hispanic people, should put on a back pack, drive to the boarder and go hiking. I think those border cops need something to do with all their time. Just think of the trouble they’d have if they had to chase down legal American Citizens out for a nice refeshing hike in the desert. Millions of people should think about a nice hike this weekend. I would sort of be like the bus boycotts in the south of the 1950′s and 60′s. Do it!
Wow! now, I feel much better.
