THE NEW ROME

Yes we are living in a republic which is merely repeating history. As stories go it is a great one, but again here are the signs our country is headed for empire: I Started righting this blog and then realised it's wickedly political implications, so I have sanitised it for those who may be offended by its more critical original state.

-Republic turns to Empire
this is a common theme throughout history. A republic based on the virtues of freedom, individual hegemony, and self realisation is perverted by the glut and love of money and things. This also occurred countless times in Chinese history as each succeeding wave of invader became sinicised. The sinicised part is equal to the fat lazy american video game playing kid who cant write or read or know what math is. whereas those non-americans hungry for an existence not so brutalised by the vicissitudes of nature AND human nature struggle to replace those future "leaders."

-Bastardised Legislation
again when ideals and sweat are subrogated by greasy palms and money. can we say PIGS AT THE TROUGH? This wouldn't be the first time people were lorded over by tyranny (oh wait, own story of independence from interfering overlords wanting some extra taxes, the first true republicans, but wait there is more the republics first instituted the national income tax system in the 1860's. do they teach you that in american history? yup they do not and the Lincoln Mythology isn't its own bit of revisionism.. uh uhh)

-Money Lords run the system
humm.. I know I know it's a stretch... but the private armies of the territorial governors and generals is now the fat fucking overpaid CEO's of the world.

-Power is MOney
yup, your mom has been telling this to you for a long time. Now that your working at the GAP for $7.00 an hour, how does it feel not to be able to afford anything? ya they create jobs everyday in America. Hey I'm just trying to make my mortgage payments every month. (you notice mortgage has the word DEATH in it right? (mort)) merriam-webster below

-Bread and Circus
the new bread and circus in theatres across the country, on television in every household, yummy..the warm and fecal output of a million media makers spread across our screens. keep pushing the X button then the square button then the triangle button, that should eliminate the bad guys. Remember when 3 channels was enough and you spent most of you time playing OUTSIDE? like the:

Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy Lyrics - Television, The Drug Of The Nation Lyrics

One nation under God has turned into one nation under the influence of one drug [chorus:] Television, the drug of the Nation Breeding ignorance and feeding radiation (2x) T.V., it satellite links our United States of Unconsciousness Apathetic therapeutic and extremely addictive The methadone metronome pumping out 150 channels 24 hours a day you can flip through all of them and still there's nothing worth watching T.V. is the reason why less than 10 per cent of our Nation reads books daily Why most people think Central Amerika means Kansas Socialism means unamerican and Apartheid is a new headache remedy absorbed in it's world it's so hard to find us It shapes our mind the most maybe the mother of our Nation should remind us that we're sitting too close to... [Chorus:] Television, the drug of the Nation Breeding ignorance and feeding radiation (2x) T.V. is the stomping ground for political candidates Where bears in the woods are chased by Grecian Formula'd bald eagles T.V. is mechanized politic's remote control over the masses co-sponsored by environmentally safe gases watch for the PBS special It's the perpetuation of the two party system where image takes precedence over wisdom Where sound bite politics are served to the fastfood culture Where straight teeth in your mouth are more important than the words that come out of it Race baiting is the way to get selected Willie Horton or Will he not get elected on... [Chorus:] Television, the drug of the Nation Breeding ignorance and feeding radiation (2x) T.V., is it the reflector or the director ? Does it imitate us or do we imitate it because a child watches 1500 murders before he's twelve years old and we wonder why we've created a Jason generation that learns to laugh rather than to abhor the horror T.V. is the place where armchair generals and quarterbacks can experience first hand the excitement of warfare as the theme song is sung in the background Sugar sweet sitcoms that leave us with a bad actor taste while pop stars metamorphosize into soda pop stars You saw the video You heard the soundtrack Well now go buy the soft drink Well, the onla cola that I support would be a union C.O.L.A.(Cost Of Living Allowance) On television [Chorus:] Television, the drug of the Nation Breeding ignorance and feeding radiation (2x) Back again, "New and improved" We return to our irregularly programmed schedule hidden cleverly between heavy breasted beer and car commercials CNNESPNABCTNT but mostly B.S. Where oxymoronic language like "virtually spotless", "fresh frozen" "light yet filling" and "military intelligence" have become standard T.V. is the place where phrases are redefined like "recession" to "necessary downturn" "Crude oil" on a beach to "mousse" "Civilian death" to "collateral damages" and being killed by your own Army is now called "friendly fire" T.V. is the place where the pursuit of happiness has become the pursuit of trivia Where toothpaste and cars have become sex objects Where imagination is sucked out of children by a cathode ray nipple T.V. is the only wet nurse that would create a cripple [Chorus:] Television, the drug of the Nation Breeding ignorance and feeding radiation

-The Pantheon of Gods
stars.. more stars and "famous" people. celebrities are the newest pantheon. how many times can you crucify dionysus? LOL

-Centurion Denied Benefits
there was time time centurians were paid in salt and land (hence the word salary). then that stopped and the republic went to H E double hockey sticks. wait a minute we do that today with our veterans... hummm...

-The lure of roman citizenship has no meaning
there was a time when yawl want roman citizenship, voting, in good standing with your community blah blah, then you realised it was a rip, so you just plundered instead. with the exception of some parts the midwest (and that is in doubt too), the good of the community before the good of the individual is DEAD. here come the vandals




-the chaos of multiple interests causes the rise of centralised power and elimination of personal liberties
the patriot act. the surveillance, true to protect us, but who is watching the watchers?

the closing song from soundgarden:
Soundgarden
2. My Wave

Take, if you want a slice
If you want a piece
If it feels alright

Break, if you like the sound
If it gets you up
If it brings you down

Share, if it makes you sleep
If it sets you free
If it helps you breathe

Don't come over here
And piss on my gate
Save it just keep it
Off my wave

Cry, if you want to cry
If it helps you see
If it clears your eyes

Hate, if you want to hate
If it keeps you safe
If it makes you brave

Pray, if you want to pray
If you like to kneel
If you like to lay

Don't come over here
And piss on my gate
Save it just keep it
Off my wave

Keep it off my wave
Keep it off my wave
Keep it off my wave

My wave

My Sweet Summer in June

This sweet time, but dry not ot wet and sultry like a summer day in new england late in the afternoon early evening. I loaded the track "a long fucking time" from the cd stoned onto dekal.musicv2.com. must be a fan of metal machine music and feldman if you want the whole hour...i find some of my titles will not fit onto cd, may have to do dvd or special reel to reel format. let me know. In California the sun always shines and wind is dry. I t reminds me of iceland without the water, though in some places during the winter it is alot like an icelandic spring.

Ecceity Broken Soul go listen to it at www.dekal.musicv2.com. It fuckin rocks. look, all this stuff on that website is fucking stone people! you will be deafened. two ways to listen folks so pay fucking attention!

If you have dial up only? fuck off cuz you wont be able to stream, so download the goddamn songs please. Broadband folks, the player is decent sincs the last flash shockwave improvement except for the purevolume website, which fucking absolutely blows my fucking dick, man their sound quality heaves the biggest fucking chunks, I cant believe people actually get music from that sight, anyway, get it from anywhere else:

garageband.com; jukeboxalive.com; betarecords.com; musicv2.com anywhere but purevolume, that way you can also send them a message to shove the fucking corporate shit up their tweaked out money grubbing asses.

ANYWAY, once you actually get the music, please get a good pair of headphones! akg k-66; koss ur-40's something besides that crap that gets passed off as headphones or if you are utilising a stereo system follow these instructions:

at least two way crossover preferable at 100hz; 1k, spekaers placed at least 3 meters apart facing away from each other AND away from you, if you tell me you are using some cheap ass fucking computer system speaker ugghhh!! also please turn off the fucking enhancers and the surround sound buttons, this is two channel STEREO MUSIC. 2 ears 2 speakers verstehen??

NOW listen at flat EQ, DO NOT NORMALISE, DO NOT USE LOUDNESS, DO NOT PASS GO.

You may now go deaf... or at least annoy the fuck out of your neighbour, cuz when they get the load of bass drum that is gonna come pumping out, oh yeah... they are gonna hear the thud... HEHE...
