Mike Gravel rocks. This is, by far, my favorite political ad I have ever seen.

"Rock"



It may not win him the democratic nomination, but it confirms why I took to him after the first democratic debate. It's a bold move. Compare the above video to the one below. Though the one below is from a Japanese game show, it's indicative of what marketers have stooped to in order to draw viewers in from the millions of videos available on the web. Warning: the video below may be the most bizarre clip you have ever seen. Ironic that I found them both last night within minuites of each other:

I have a little map on the bottom of this page. When I click on it, I am informed where visitors are viewing from.

I don't know how you found my blog or why you visit, but I appreciate it. When I see that Durango Colorado checks UndeadWords once a week or so, It makes me feel like I should have something new and interesting for Durango. And my Kailua visitor, and Honolulu, and Tokyo, and that person in Georgia. And LA. Someone in LA checks me once in a while. I have readers now. Few and far between, but steady. I started this blog because my note books kept molding in the jungle, and Blogger gave me a place to store my journal off site and dry.

I want to write more, I need to. For my sanity. And for you. I want to serve a function in this world. I want to contribute. I like to feel that my humble perspective might prove useful to some other, or others. I'm not going to ask what you want to hear from me. I write about whatever the moment evokes. This isn't a political blog, news blog, sex blog, buisiness blog, or tech blog, because I'm too interested in all of the above. It's just me here, and a little this and that.



I want to be inspired. I want to be stimulated by other people. I need it. Out of all the people cascading through the vast channels of the mainstream media, the world wide web, the cellular technology, how many of them grab you by the cajones and make you want to respond? (Not react. Respond: take action of your own.) I see a few.

They are there. George Bush makes me want to respond. I would really like to spend a week with George, to get to know each other. Not debate, criticise, condemn, or lecture. Just chit chat.

I'm afraid George has insulated himself from real people who have direct experience with the real world. I think George might have a mutated case of Stockholm Syndrome where he has identefied with his captor. Who could George's captor be? Demographics. His base is a political concept that people have subscribed to. Particular people with particular traits. Particularly, people that eagerly sacrifice their cognitive sovereignty for the ease of dichotomy, then only embrace half of that.




Dictator Enablers from Central Casting, extras that crowd around the King for the tight shot.

When do we EVER see him in a socially relaxed encounter, where actual communication can happen between him and people? Sure, there are a lot sychophants in this country, that politicos have to wade through in crowd scenes. and sure, even witty, reasonably intelligent people socially choke in the presense of Power. The commercial press has failed its duty as the 4th estate. We need to go talk to him ourselves. In addition to State Representatives, we could have MindState representatives as well.

Working in the Cyber Age on Industrial Age social mechanisms.




The politically engineered Demographic is turning into Frankensteins Monster. Easily spooked and pickle-brained. When are we going to realize that Fundamentalist Christians and Fundementalist Muslims are mentally arrested, cognitively truncated menaces to the general good? We need to recognize them as such as soon as possible so that they can recieve our sympathy instead of our juvinile taunting. These people need help. Help me help you help us help them, won't you? Run for a MindState Representative Seat, elect yourself, then demand to have an immidiate conference with George to discuss the concerns of the MindState that you Represent. Organize a few MindState Representatives, then you could be a MindState Senator. Shit, run for President of the United MindStates of the Planet, then tell George that you want him to come see you for a conferrence. Why not.




I like Mike Gravel. I like the way he talks. I like what he says. He's believable.



I like this guy too.
