Two (possibly 3) Unrelated Things

Yo, this is a picture possibly generated by computers.  Iforget where I got it from, I just know it looks rad and the bottom one is very cubist and I really like cubism.

This is a cool positive action site about not co-operating with a war mongering gov't that i thought sounded like a really good idea.

If you go to www.ratm.com there's a book list that i thought was rad. on the inlay card for the album Evil Empire by Rage against the machine there's a picture of all kinds of wicked revolutionary books. I was always keen to read those books. On the "reading list" portion of the website it has links to purchase all of those books and more. Some are even free to read online. I read most of "What Uncle Sam Really Wants" by Noam Chomsky the other day it was a pretty crazy eye opener. Friggin intense. So check it out. Prints not dead, that's just what the future wants you to think.



 



 



Album of the week (aka the last 7 years of my life) The Refused : "The Shape of Punk to Come" (their album name was actually a very accurate prediction. Well somewhat, a lot of bands aped their new sound but none really nailed it quite as amazingly as they did. Actually I'd say this album is a main shaping factor of the last decade of hardcore/punk music much like Operation ivy was a shaping factor of the punk rock / ska genre a decade before. oddly enough two bands who broke up then changed everything with little fanfare or recognition. )

My new Favourite Group

Now these guys. . . are cool. PANACHE!


German 'Robin Hoods' give poor a taste of the high life

ALLAN HALL IN BERLIN

A GANG of anarchist Robin Hood-style thieves, who dress as superheroes and steal expensive food from exclusive restaurants and delicatessens to give to the poor, are being hunted by police in the German city of Hamburg.
The gang members seemingly take delight in injecting humour into their raids, which rely on sheer numbers and the confusion caused by their presence. After they plundered Kobe beef fillets, champagne and smoked salmon from a gourmet store on the exclusive Elbastrasse, they presented the cashier with a bouquet of flowers before making their getaway.
The latest robbery is part of a pattern over the past several months, suggesting that the thieves deliberately set out to highlight what they perceive as the inequality inherent in German society.
However, the authorities do not agree. Bodo Franz, a police spokesman, said: "They get off feeling they are just like Robin Hood. There are about 30 in the group. But whatever their motives, they are thieves, plain and simple."
Carsten Sievers, the manager of a luxury supermarket in the wealthy Blankenese area of Hamburg, recently watched the robbers run off with trolleys full of expensive foodstuffs, including Kobe beef which, at more than £100 a pound, is always on their illicit shopping list.
In another recent swoop, the gang emptied a groaning buffet table in a top restaurant into sacks, while one of their number held up a sign saying. "The fat years are over" - the title of a hit film currently doing the rounds in Germany.
In internet statements, the gang have made a point of saying their booty is distributed to Hartz IV recipients - the poorest of Germany's long-term unemployed. The benefit is named after the disgraced Volkswagen personnel director Peter Hartz who, before he lost his job with the car-maker in a prostitutes-and-bribes scandal, devised the new means-testing which is loathed and derided by society's most economically challenged.
When the gang robbed the gourmet store in April - triggering a massive police investigation that cost £20,000 in taxpayers' money without an arrest being made - they left a note behind saying: "Without the abilities of the superheroes to help them, it would be impossible for ordinary people to survive in the city of the millionaires."
Police say they are concentrating their investigation on a loose collective of anarchists and malcontents called "Hamburg in Vain", to which they believe the superheroes belong. But they admit there is a certain panache and skill about their robberies.
The gang are also behind black market cinema tickets which they distribute free to the poor, and they have printed leaflets telling passengers how to dodge ticket inspectors on the city's underground and buses.
Mr Franz said: "They try to make crime fun but are politically motivated."


Rock on!

More Haikus. . .

Thanks to the beautiful and charming "Ryan Chappell" (that's for google searches) I have been directed here: http://www.haikucircus.com/index.htm

He also suggested these slogans that i enjoyed:

DE is more equal than others
DE is not a pipe
DE eshews obfuscation

and this made me laugh:

Also on the subject of Japan, check out this Engrish text that came with one of my computer heatsinks:

5. The Nipples MUST be tightened by hand. Using tools to tighten the nipples may break the tip of the nipples.

I am convinced of the wisdom of this statement.

He also sent me these links (OH YES RYAN GOOD FRIEND GOOD FRIEND MANY TREASURES!!)
