been posting elsewhere

some things, like friendships, just die.

but no fear, i'm still friends with me wee blogginshphere here, thank google. just been posting and working on a community blog elsewhere with all of my talented lifecompanions. they fuckin' rule! in fact, they rule so much that i'm writing a song about them.

one of them told me last night that i had a gift after i played and sang a song for them- something quite courageous for me to do! well anywhoo, i swear i'm gonna use it.

outtie :)

a short treatise

Upon which subject, I do not yet know.

I can say that during the course of my research into vulgarity on the web, I have come across two instances of kidd-ep-r0n. I'm a bit baffled as to how it is allowed to be online. I believed that this kind of thing was illegal.

I know that it's hard to monitor content that exists on the internet. However, technology exists in the form of bots that could be programmed to look for sites like these. People already use bots to harvest email addresses. The DOJ doesn't need search engine queries- they need a bot programmer with some experience in psychology and computer-user interaction. It is hard to search for images, but it can be done. Concurrently, DNS servers at the backbone level of the internet can block access to the pages; the domains could also be monitored by the various registrars and shut down- just sayin'.....

The AWD loves it that midwinter has passed. We are on our way back toward spring and summer. I need, I need, like in a bad way, for the earth to get closer to that point on the trip- bathing in the lakes and rivers and geothermal hot springs is how I need to live, year-round. Not enough fires this winter. Our energies have been low as radical lifechanges in the electric amoeba are happening. The young are getting older..... the educated are getting wiser..... the motivated are moving toward different paths..... the enlightened are finding the way.....

Cling.

a new song

wrote a new song last weekend and taught someone how to play the bassline. i would put the lyrics here, but really, i believe that someone would steal them and get 'em copyrighted and when i go to record it, it would be all stolen and shit. anywho, all i need's a drummer, 'cause i ain't puttin' the gitfiddle down to do it and i ain't startin' and stoppin' no drum machine, either.

my les paul is fucking beautiful! i'm trying to find a picture of it online- gimmie a second here..... alright! found one. i thought that i was gonna have to set up a photoshoot for it. anywhoo, that's my ubertonic melodymachine, made in amerika; for those that don't know, this means it is not an epiphone model, which are now all made overseas. i don't mean to slight the workmanship or quality of these instruments, which is quite high; i just believe that buying amerikan-made stuff is a good thing to do for our economy.

'nuff said.
