About Me
More and more the ol' U.S. of A. seems like a cross between 1984 and Fahrenheit 451 - Where's Simon Jester or V when you need them? This little spot on the 'Net is meant as a place to explore ways to carve out what freedom we can in this nanny-government, corporate Big Brother world - and enjoy the bread and circuses along the way. Who am I? Well, Tom Paine once wrote, "Who the Author of this Production is, is wholly unnecessary to the Public, as the Object for Attention is the DOCTRINE ITSELF, not the MAN."

with ya on this - i like the humor and man is it ever true. wonder what we call the Olds - grandpa's car. Did you notice the name of the ship in the background at about 1:45. One of the pontential herd should have a field day.
one thing - how much of the three network news discussed in the opening stanza was really mass propaganda and is too much of the fallacy that we carry around today? having said that - i think i'll go to the zone and dig deeper.
Holy crap! I didn't get the herd reference until I took another look.
Good point about the three sacred cows - maybe having hundreds and thousands of potential sources via TV and Internet beats being spoonfed the network news.
