about me
free-spirited, lovely, self-conscious, danceable, grieving for a society that thinks it can do anything it wants, is justified in all ends for all means, and hasn't a clue how to confront the consequences of its own actions. Society is us, people.
But let's dance. Bang your head.
Black and White

a reply to www.philly.com/philly/ent...75596.html; "Whites as Blacks: Risky, rarely successful."
I never cease to be astonished at the views presumably intelligent people have. Neely Tucker of the Washington Post, and by exten...

Idiots. Us. Idiots. The problem is us. We bask in the relative peace we may enjoy in the months between each inevitable public mass-murder, then we point and shrug and shake our heads in sorrow, thanking God it hasn't happened here yet. But why ...

I Mustn't in the Morning
(blog entry)
Here we go again. The nation whips itself into an uproar over our offended sensibilities, oblivious to the fact that a few puppet-masters are over on the sidelines, pulling the strings. And what's the main motivation here? Fear. In the case of CBS...

Merry Christmas, II
(blog entry)
This truly has been the roughest time of my life, but I learned a few things along the way, and had a few other things reinforced. Much of it was retold at a lecture last night that I attended with my school kids. In the house was Bill Cosby and a...

I never cease to be astonished at the views presumably intelligent people have. Neely Tucker of the Washington Post, and by extension every newspaper who carries Tucker's column, states their views in bold living color: "Whites as Blacks" (based on Tucker’s “memory” from the 1830s? That’s a neat trick.) The very phrase segregates, discriminates, is prejudicial. Tucker criticiz...

Idiots. Us. Idiots. The problem is us. We bask in the relative peace we may enjoy in the months between each inevitable public mass-murder, then we point and shrug and shake our heads in sorrow, thanking God it hasn't happened here yet. But why can't it? Personal accountability is a myth, our society has been commandeered by the lawyers and the cowered politicians who seek to control every thought, every gesture, every nuance of our lives. If we complain about the idiocy surrounding us we c...

Here we go again. The nation whips itself into an uproar over our offended sensibilities, oblivious to the fact that a few puppet-masters are over on the sidelines, pulling the strings. And what's the main motivation here? Fear. In the case of CBS, fear of being sued and losing advertising revenue. In the case of Inquirer editorialists and watercooler conversationalists, fear of being labeled a racist. But what really happened here? Imus, Stern and their like-minded brethren have long careers...

This truly has been the roughest time of my life, but I learned a few things along the way, and had a few other things reinforced. Much of it was retold at a lecture last night that I attended with my school kids. In the house was Bill Cosby and a host of other local men who had stood up to make a difference in their community. Many of them were organized to approach the corner kids, the pushers and slingers, and they go up to them, night after night, day after day, bereft of bulletproof vest...
