Hey friends,

I hope you've missed me in your inbox. Or enjoyed the break from my ceaseless self-promotion. In any case, I'm back, and loaded with reams of words to unroll. Where to begin? It's been a wild four months, I can tell you that. And consquently, impossible to sum up in a few paragraphs. But I'll try my best...

read my words from the road

Where's that hobo at? (updated Aug 31 2010): Scott had a lovely time at Music on the Mountain. Huge thanks to Lionel, Rosemarie, Kirk, & all the good folks who made it happen.

WELL WORTH READING:


Martin Luther King on Vietnam, as relevant today as it was back in '67.

WELL WORTH WATCHING:


The War on Democracy
by John Pilger

Why We Fight
by Eugene Jarecki


  "Recent polls have shown growing public dissatisfaction with the president's handling of the war in Iraq in the face of a persistent insurgency and the mounting U.S. death toll."-AP, my emphasis added
They forgot to mention the price at the pump, which seems to be people's #1 concern... Civilians in iraq evidently don't matter to US military planners, or to the mass media... what will it take for their lives to matter to the US public?
