Rock on for cancer!

I fear that only upon his death will Henry Rollins' post-Black Flag contributions and importance to the counter culture of America be recognized. He's a voice too often ignored. Listen. You might feel weird. It means you're thinking, questioning, pulling away from the controls you've unwillingly put into your life. Think!

This song is good like apple pie. If apple pie got into lifting free weights and Ayn Rand, that is.


He's also very funny.


Yes! Never forget it!

Back in Pittsburgh. Good to be here.

Dancing tonight, roadtrip to NIN tomorrow. It's gonna be radical.

Caught a very minor, brief, ultimately harmless case of "Olympic fever" while at home. I watched the Gold Medal Women's Beach Volleyball match. Mostly because the broads were in bikinis. I don't doubt the massive physical fitness and keen coordination and teamwork it takes to play the game, but I do doubt it's legitimacy as an Olympic sport. Besides the Australians, Americans, Brazilians, and maybe the Canadians, what country's general populace enjoys playing volleyball on a beach, or, for that matter, volleyball in general??

When the Olympics, historically a place to come together and enjoy sports in a fair environment, take place in a country like China, are they even relevant anymore?

200 million people live on less than a dollar a day there. 200 million. Almost the U.S. population. Chances are we all own something one of those people make/assemble for twelve hours a day in order to perpetuate the unknown misery that is their life. You don't have to buy American, but try to buy fair. Start at home. Don't shop at Walmart!! If Walmart is the largest employer in the U.S., then, by proxy, shouldn't it's employees not have to worry about receiving food stamps or catching the bus?? But many of them do. Think!

Crazy neighbors must have some good meth runnin' through the veins. They are productive today. Lots of child beating and motorcycle revving. I think they might've even filled the kiddie pool for their little (literally-->)bastards. Ugh.

I'm an employee, go ahead, it's my pleasure.-BK
