GASP alert 12/16/2005

Today is Friday. A sad day for many as we bid farewell to Howard Stern on terrestial radio. He's leaving this world and going out to space-- The digital overworld where biological reverberations are transformed into a series of 1's and 0's and then transmitted back to 'our world' by electric pulses where a mechanical device reinterprets the pulses into audio waves which travel and crash into our brains and thru a series of small yet intense chemical explosions we form thoughts that recognize the one and only voice of Howard Stern. And people say the Matrix isn't real.
Speaking of 1's and 0's let's talk about BINARY OPPOSITION. Red state vs Blue state, Democrat vs Republican, liberal vs conservative, gay vs straight, black vs white, prochoice vs prolife, you get it right? With only a select number of choices it's easier to control people and label them so that they fit into a specific mold. That way there is no unified majority. That would be scary for the minority of ghouls that depend on controversy and hype to keep the masses opposed and at opposite ends of the sociopolitical spectrum.
People are either to scared or to lazy to create their own choices. THat's why Bush said after 9-11 "You're either with us or against us". He ultimately forced us to be the right kind of patriot or the wrong kind. THAT IS EVIL. Bush is NOT VERY BRIGHT. HE HAS writers dictate beforehand what to say to us therefore the "With us or against us" doctrination came from someone who knew perfectly well what they were doing and how to capitolize on a tragedy.
A lot of people think we have too much freedom of speech. KIds and their rap music! Up on stage grabbin my nuts! Bring on the noise! What the hell are they yellin?
It's funny how people derive their own opinions based on what they see and hear. What ever happened to listening to the little voices in your head? I'd rather be a lunatic than a host of vermin.
So Howard is gone. What about that FCC, huh? That whole Janet Jackson fiasco. What a way to get people on both sides of the line. What cacophony pile of guano. Independent radio stations like WRFL, 88.1, "All the way to the left", in Lexington KY. airs "Democracy Now" every week. One story I remember well concerning the FCC crackdown after the preverbial tit shot told how a lot of indie stations were raided and shut down because they were antiwar and anti Bush and the whole FCC mess gave them the power to do it in the bat of eye.
IF ANYONE OUT THERE IS READING THIS, I WISH I COULD DO THE RESEARCH AND FIND OUT THE DETAILS ON THIS. IF YOU KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT THIS WHOLE MESS PLEASE RESPOND.
Anyways, commercial radio sucks and has sucked for a very long time. Most cities have two rock stations-- one playing NEW rock and one playing CLASSIC. Once again I am FORCED to choose "1" or "0". But I choose "2" independent radio. But even that is becoming stagnant. Internet radio, MP3's, have transformed the way we get our music. Oh the humanity of it all!
I've been listening to NPR for about ten years now. They tend to be a voice for the "liberal" community and yet again they get a lot of their funding from corporations like Walmart. Go figure. Well, at least they dont SCREAM AT YOU!
It's mad, mad, mad. That's why I'm doing this here blog: Guard Against Santana Proliferation. On one hand it's a satirical statement against activism-- because I'm a total slacker who's just trying to get by-- I got no time to save millions of starving babies-- does that make me a bad person? No. I don't profess to "know it all " either. Humor is the most effective means of protest I can think of and for me, fighting the invisible evils of the material world begins with ridiculous commentaries against causes that really have no merit.
Get up stand up. Stand up for your right. Don't give up the fight.
Join the Guard. Stop Santanaganda, now.
