go further...

I wish I could be bothered to dig up a few faux-passionate pre-invasion quotes by Bush, especially the ones about liberating citizens from torture and tyranny. But then, I don't need to be bothered because everyone will remember them.

Guess who's torturing Iraqi citizens now, using the very prisons Saddam built?

(And heh, all those people who thought including women in the forces might humanize the military? What's glaringly clear from the photographs is the equality women soldiers have apparently achieved. In being assholes. Watch them claim - in whiney voices - that they were coerced into being inhuman by their male counterparts.)

The blurb says:

We meet an entrepreneur who runs a paper company that does not harm trees; an organic farmer who believes Nature is his partner; a man who teaches environmental activists to use humor as a strategic weapon. And throughout, we see Harrelson test his belief that the transformation of our planet begins with the small personal transformations that are within the grasp of each and every one of us, after which… we’ll Go Further.

Woody Harrelson's road trip to raise environmental awareness is enlightening, funny, and compassionate, and the soundtrack is great, among other things.

Steve Clark - the star of the show, really reminded me of Joey even though I've never seen or met Joey.

This guy is hilarious.

The raw-food chef on the hemp-fueled bus made a chocolate pie out of avocado, coconut oil and chocolate. Sounds like WOW, doesn't it?

my newest mixed tape for the gym.

There's a lot of Jackson Browne on that tape and maybe he's not "popular" anymore and maybe he was "too popular" at one time, but the thing is, I've always liked J. Browne because he is a sublime lyricist and guitarist. He's really really good at what he does. So I like him. So there.

Lately I'm addicted to Nicks' Cave and Drake. I plan to buy every recording Nick Drake ever made. Everything he wrote, every single song, is divine. And doesn't Leonard Cohen sound - in his songs - like Nick Cave? Is that a rip-off or what?
