Yes indeed, we do live in interesting times..

While your version may be true in your neck of the woods..it wont
happen
in America.

Shrug


It's already happening here.

Check out Detroit


Heard about Houston? Heard about Detroit?
Heard about Pittsburgh, PA?
You oughta know not to stand by the window
Somebody see you up there
I got some groceries, some peanut butter
To last a couple of days
But I ain't got no speakers, ain't got no headphones
Ain't got no records to play

dum, dum...

Heard of a van that is loaded with weapons
Packed up and ready to go
Heard of some gravesites out by the highway
A place where nobody knows
The sound of gunfire off in the distance
I'm getting used to it now
Lived in a brownstone, lived in a ghetto
I've lived all over this town...

Gunner's dream!

my god ed i can't believe an old far.. guy.. like you is quoting "talking
heads"!
(jeez, here i am thinking that's modern, that came out in '79, prolly
would be considered "oldies" now huh?)


b.w.


Hey, I'm not *that* old. I was only 31 in 1979. In fact, I used to go to
CBGB's. But I never saw the Heads there. (I did sit next to Blondie (Debbie
Harry) on the Sixth Avenue subway once, though. Does that count?)

I think we should all be aware of Gunner's wartime anthem:

For the wackos who think we're headed for a revolution it's
downright...inspirational.
