I refuse to believe that the government is watching us all that closely.............it is an instrument of fear that the government and the media uses against us.

Here is something that I am guilty of - put I'm pretty sick and tired of - I'M SICK AND TIRED OF: empty and meaningless conversation regarding the war, the fascist decider, the economy, gas prices, food prices, unemployment, injustice, dead end jobs, etc. etc. etc.

HERE'S WHAT I KNOW: life is about the relationships that we have with other people. It's NOT about my car, my paycheck, my tv, my house, my clothes, my body, my hair style, my jewelry etc. etc. etc.

So, if all of this complaining and whining makes us feel a little more connected to each other - that might just be a good thing. Or it might just pull us so low that we powerless and helpless and do nothing day after day after day.
