that ray charles could make the most tired old song sound amazing.
i started wondering, though, what it would sound like if ray charles did the team america song.
Hey Joe
Leave it to the 'Canadians' to write about America....
I want a Pony!
evening arrow...
i guess that the empire crosses their mind from time to time.
A song about Hillary?
and America...
I want a Pony!
heh...
well, the melody (such as it is) is quite unpleasant, but this kinda reminds me of hillary:
Aua, aua, ouch, ouch, boom, boom, it hurts /nt
Good evening, Joe. Happy Fourth.
Lemme think, 4th of July, birth of a nation (heh), yeah, I can come up one of those ---
That, in its essence, is fascism--ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power. -- Franklin D. Roosevelt --

People are lighting fireworks like crazy
all around me - and here we are in the midnight sun where you can't freaking see them.
So idiotic.
Then, someone mocked Alaskans shooting off fireworks on New Year's when you CAN see them the other day. Not traditional, I guess.
I figure all the fireworks people tonight aren't really from around here.
it's traditional in Germany to have fireworks on New Years Eve
... just saying, may be all the Alaskans had anchestry in Germany? /s / ducking.

Kind of disturbing so I wanted to share, haha just kidding but not really. Within five minutes it's like she crawled up inside my head and started thinking out loud, that is how her words resonated. It sure reminded about the "levels of awareness" spiel, how all people seemingly travel between each... Oh boy, don't listen to me fer cryin' out loud. heh I am down with her "open source media distribution" talk, hope more get behind it. Thanks.
