I've changed my sig line...I have a reason for mentioning this...
Usually I just change it, and that's that. But I wanted to make a point of it this time because the old one was so very excellent, yet I'm not sure anyone EVER read it. And so, one last time, I present:

"Two days. That was all it took for the people of Spain to become impatient, to pressure their government for the truth. When they did not get it, they threw that government out on it's ear. For America, a nation approaching the 1,000th day in which their government has not provided the truth of September 11th, this is a lesson to be taken deeply to heart."----Will Pitt, truthout 15 Mar 2004

Thanks! :hi:

put some color in your sig so the eyes don't dominate so much.

Don't lose the eyes, I wouldn't recognize you without 'em.

15. it was the second scariest experience of my life!
boy was that dumb. It's bad enough when you are straight. Tells you how long since we did anything of that sort! We are nice members of society now with kid and two cars and house, well messy house full of CDS, books and funky art, musical instruments, piled up NYTs and Legos.

3. It's an okay song, but a little behind the times these days.
Try the Mojo Nixon and Jello Biafra version if you want some post-1965 references.


I've grown older and wiser, so that's why I'm turning you in!

8. Yes, he WROTE the song.
But Mojo and Jello wrote new lyrics!


Yeah, I've heard Phil's version more recently; and I like Ochs a lot, I really do. But so much of his "topical" material is so dated these days. As Dylan said, "you're not a folksinger, you're a journalist."

14. Thanks!
I really, really, REALLY liked the Will Pitt one; that's my favorite thing he's ever said. In some ways it lends itself to the new one, too...;)
