effects
Few things are more wrong in this world than people who believe they have a special gift, a gift that is representative of the betterment of other people through the legislative process. This mentality that distinguishes itself no further than that of a child gearing up for a day at the water-park is complete and utter crap fresh from the farm. Special interests have now, and always have, ran this country. It is not the people who get these people elected, it is the people with money that get these people elected. No money, no say! Because the political climate is always shifting, their is a constant struggle to maintain power within the confines of government. Once power is changed, new forces are at work, all of which compete for their own interests through usual and sometimes unusual channels of effective and collective endeavors designed around favors and gestures of good faith. For example, if I donated fifty grand to governor x, then I would get to buy a few minutes with him or her to discuss issues I may have in my community. If I donated a MILLION DOLLARS to governor x, then that would mean my time has more value which means I have more juice; which means I have political capital; which means I need assistance that only money can buy so I can gain even more juice. Once someone reaches their personal juicyness level, and they begin to feel they have the answers other people are looking for, then we have a problem that has far reaching effects on a larger number of people.
river flowing under
Their was no life in those eyes of hers. She desperately tried to hide the emptiness inside but unlike me, who is real good at it, she needed space to let it out in the form of rage and obsessiveness over the mundane artifacts of our times. This was her coping mechanism, her stride, and it was through this level of engagement that would be her demise. It was a suited match however that worked well for a time, but as the wheels of life roll on she found that what was once hers is now mine. She knows that her future holds no redeeming qualities under her current isolation, but like me she will find solice one day. She will find it in a way that stretches far beyond the limits of our short stretch here, she will find it among others who hear her real self speak through written words. The color will come back to her eyes and they will sparkle like a river flowing underneath the gates of Heaven.

golf
People forget what the are trying to do when we play golf. Unfortunately, it is advertising that has fucked it up for everyone. You see, advertising tells us what we need. It replaces the experiences we rely on when we make decisions about us and the game we play. It takes away from the point of gaming by emphasizing what is not needed in order to sell more unnecessary crap.
Distance is only a part of the game. Clubs are also only a part of the game. What we are tryng to do in golf is put the ball in the hole in the least amount of strokes as possible and nobody cares how that is done, believe me! So next time you find yourself alone in the box, make sure your loose so you can smack the shit out of it. Hopefully it will be straight and true so you can put the next one right up there next to the pin for a kickin bird. And that's what were trying to do!

bowling
I'm not sure bowling gets enough credit. Every time I have ever seen people bowl, whether they are good at it or not, they always seem to have fun. There is laughing and joking around; there are those who take the game more seriously than others (very fun to watch), and there are those who bowl for the same reason others paint. You see, art can be found in everything. In bowling, the art is spinning the ball into the pocket so the pins crash into each other as they blast back into the pit with a thunderous crash. There is art in picking up the 6-10-7 or the 5-7 splits. Those who take bowling more seriously are fun to watch because they take pride in the game, which is all anybody can do in this life. Bowling creates friendships and builds bridges. It serves as an avenue where people can forget about their issues for a couple hours a week and enjoy the excitement and electricity of a sport with as much flavor as badmitten or snooker.

happy people harmony
Images bring life to the harmonies that envelop our lives. Through images and music we have the capacity to see things, things that are not happening as yet. You see, within the harmonies created, and the images that come with them, we can enter a realm that allows us to formulate new hypothesis we can only get under the direction of the magic, the peace, the design that is allowed to prosper and fortify the lives of people in a good way; the kind that comes from the passionate people who gave us everything they had while they were here. We must continue their struggle. We must live our lives in a way that reflects the same passion and compassion brought us by the many who saw beyond the horizon to an eternal flame fanned only by those who try but always fail just as they did. Images and harmony flavor the experience of solitude while feeding the dreams of change that faith brings to the happy people.
big soupy mess
The wheels of capitalism continue to spin as more and more unnecessary shit is created for our consumption. I saw a blanket for sale on television, the snuggie, for 19.95. Order now and you can receive 2 for the price of one. This of course follows the regular dieting report on the news where we learn that we have to move and eat in order to lose weight. The thing is, when we begin to rely on television to tell us how to live, we lose our way. Once we lose our individuality we begin to see the world from the perspective of other people we don't even know and have never met. It is almost as if we dress ourselves in plasic wrap so we can sell ourselves in much the same way as those snuggie's. We do this freely as a result of being here in it; the big soupy mess.
