Gypsies created this country. If you don't think so, you better read somewhere the truth. Imagine for a moment that you hate where you live. You then get on a boat and bare the ocean currents for days on end with bad food and no waste management. You arrive in a whole new place and then proceed to find new and interesting ways to kill the locals because you are right and they are wrong. If that is not an example of what can happen when panic, humanity, greed, or whatever you want to call it; gypsy revolution, whatever, then I don't know what is. The point is that every new thing is sloppy and difficult to bear. When we see gypsies these days we see people who look just like us and have a value system that may be better than ours, but they don't hurt anyone. They just have a different way of doing things.
There are no more territories to conquer. There are no more people to massacre. The only thing we have now is people who deliver a different perspective and act upon it. Gypsies move around a lot because staying in one place for very long means to indulge in the friction that social life inevitably brings. The gypsy does not run from life, the gypsy indulges in it free from the poison that permeates everything. They experience where others talk about. They have knowledge where others read about. The gypsy is the last real American. The rest of us, well, we are part of the systematic destruction of anything new.

no procedure
Once we get caught up in procedure and status, we forget about the fruit we left outside on the porch. Soon the fruit turns and the ants all get hammered on us. After a time, the ants will wake pissed and require even more munchies. Except this time they will be munching on your ass instead of some old dried fruit. You see, education has too many upper-level managers with ideas they believe are in the best interest of the largest number of kids. Well, that's silly! There are far too many variables in life to implement a "one" kind of education. First and foremost, there needs to be an equal distribution of wealth that goes across district boundaries. Obviously the tax base of one community cannot be as large or small as that of another. Now that is just the way it is. By making available the same hard and software to every school, kids will have opportunities to seek out and fulfill their dreams which need to be built on a foundation that has within its contents the creative materials necessary to facilitate the widest possible base of opportunities for each child. This will create a competition among students from various backgrounds to broaden the horizons of not just one community, but all communities in this country. We need a redistribution of wealth that keeps the promises that current upper-management cannot keep. Education is not a status thing to be abused by over-educated idealistic types. If they want to do something they can write a book. Education is about creativity through the socialization process that harbors the artful and conscious design of a landscape thick with the passions of people that bring about real and progressive change that benefits everyone, not just one group over another specifically.
sterility
I used to think weird people were attention getter's and nothing more. Then again, it is only newsworthy if it is different. However, one could argue that there is more devastation now than ever before in the news and media in general. This fact makes the level of weirdness jump a few notches to a level that is forever expanding to include not only violence, cursing and shit, nudity, drug abuse; and the list just goes on and on. We need weird people now more than ever before. They are the balance to the imbalance; the wind on a static day; the lit moon on a starless night. The weird and the strange should be celebrated. Not like the old days with the traveling circus; although those had to be some pretty cool days. The weird should be incorporated into our daily lives. They should help people see the difference between the real and unreal by shining lights on the sterility of it all and throwing some mud on that shit. LLC 98.2

grey sucks
Something about grey, rainy days that bring the hammer down on me. There is so little to do; not that I ever did much anyway. I could go bowling I suppose, but that would require me to put on and then take off then put on again, a lot of clothes just to participate in an overpriced and worthless game that has brought me more sorrow than cheer. I could stay indoors and wish the grey away. Maybe that way I can bring out the sun so I could walk about through all the muddles. I hate grey days because it closes the doors of my perception and weakens me to the point of slumber.

artful deception
What is real is the art of deception that meanders like a snake through, in, and around every facet of our social world. Clogged with words that mean one thing but always represent another; the simple fuel that leads the masses astray, our society has become predictable and complacent. Anything new is immedately shut down and criticised for its existence. The art of deception requires but one thing, it needs to have vulnerability. The media provides this vulnerability by telling us what we don't have, what we should have, and why we need these things. We are told what we are without giving any other notion even a simple second thought. Because we are so dependant upon what we need to hear, we have failed in our original intention to become guided by the idea that anything is possible. Deception has disabled us from ourselves and turned us into a stack of cows that feed upon one another because all the grass in the field is chewed up and manufactured out. What is left is the stripped bones of fallen ideas and dreams. Deception is more real than anything because we live by it, more so than the truth of the matter. LLC 98.2

reality of unreality
The reality is there is no reality. There is no social hierarchy to die for or compare oneself to. This is a fabrication put together long ago by non-elegant smart ass white people. It is the same these days, as in those days, with art. The reality, if there must be one, is that there are more people in jail, therapy, and dead because of this makeshift real world we live in. We have more divorce, more discourse, and more all around unhappiness than ever before; with the exception of war, world-wide disease or famine, or anything else that man can provide. All one has to do is think for a moment about how long we have here and where we stand on the timeline of life. Our reality, the only one that matters, is the one inside our minds as it relates to real life situations. By that I mean we shouldn't stray too far away from the reality of our unrealities.

no control
How do we find control in a world that is out of control? Look at listen and what you see and hear each day. It will not be long before there are remote controlled advertisements that will then manifest into programmed flying zeppelin-like machines that dangle neon messages about ways to save money by spending it on their products. None of this makes any sense yet we can do nothing about it. This is a living, breathing thing that was set loose many moons ago by a single idea. Now look at us. Look at what we have become.
We seek control in an out of control world because we all need to feel like we have control over something at least. I know a young lady who is more clueless than most people. However, she is content in her cluelessness because in her mind her two kids are in her control. So at least, in her mind, she has some control over something. All other decisions are made for her and not by her except with the kids. She has now transformed herself from citizen to mother. She will bring her kids up blaming everyone else. This cycle is what makes society weak and complacent, reliant on information that comes through media which is always questionable and usually out of control.
