Rotel Integrated amp, Totem acoustic speakes, Technics, and the Detrola is just for public radio basically.  It fits nicely in there, I thought.

The Ikea is out of frame. Here's to polyoxybenzylmethylengly colanhydride, kinetic sculpture, orchids, minimalism, Eames DCW, and hoping my new girl doesn't kick me out.  Fuck it.

Gee was a cool old lady, a very comfortable woman.  The story about skinheads at Crass shows was the best.  I'll definitely be picking this up:

It seems like she should have the motivation to release more stuff since she rediscovered that she has so many ISBN's or whatnot.

The fair in general is worth checking out although it does seem a bit overwhelming with the amount of material available.  I picked up a few things in the tent.  Good stuff.

I'll be in Chicago from May 17th through the 20th.  Any leads on shows/venues/bars that pour strong drinks?  Any shows that might be happening on Friday, the 18th, would be great.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

In all likelihood I will be at this.  I haven't been to this space.  Ticketing is usually no problem on the day of the showing?

The presupposition that punk being anti-authoritarian somehow automatically equates to being anti-scholarly dismisses the article save for the references.  I think there were some intelligent people in "the scene" and of course this sort of thing would come up when they get older.  I'm sure that some of these articles are better than the new documentary "The Other F Word."  Just a hunch.

99 percent is the disenfranchised population, not just homeless.  This includes those with jobs they go to every day, people with higher education, blah, blah, until 1 percent. 

Motives?  Well, everyone needs food so I would assume that is some sort of human motive.  I bet we agree there.  Fundamentally though, a movement requires a little bit more than a good lunch.  So, what other needs do we need for a movement?  Shared ideals.  That's one.  Thus, we have a requisite of participation.  To answer your question simply, a protestor is one of his/her own free will and volition supporting a cause, i.e. not as directed by a local police force that can shoot down planes...and show you where to get FREE FOOD!

This has been great, but solidifying a so far non-descript movement into binary arguments of hypocrite or honest doesn't taste as good as fresh pasta.
