_ || < \, =||= \\ /-|| || || (( || || || \/\\ \\, \\ FROM THE PUBLISHER ------------------ Ah, mint chocolate chip ice cream. Won't piss off the vegetarians OR the carnivores. Wise choice. So I wake up at 6am Monday wondering if McVeigh is dead or alive. It's got that rainy feeling on a day that's not raining. Very hot, very humid. I'm tuning in NPR and on the net. I think about something someone sent me the other day. > Natives who beat drums to drive off evil spirits are > objects of scorn to smart Americans who blow horns > to break up traffic jams. > --Mary Kelly I feel like screaming. Not the usual stuff. The new stuff. "What the fvck's wrong with you? What's wrong with us? Where are we going?" Why are we fouling our own "living room," comes to mind. Why are we so bent on revenge and thinking NOTHING of conflict resolution. Is anyone still thinking we must avenge Oh Simma "Heavy" Bin Laden for all this? I shudder to think there is. Do you want to just scream? Do you have NO THOUGHTS? Do you just wish it would all go away? Do you have that hairy furball feeling in your throat? You're the principal and this kid has come to your attention. You even try "what punishment would you give yourself if you were me?" And he tells you peel off all his skin while he screams, and make him recite the song "Cockles and Muscles" to a whisper until he's finally dead. How do you punish someone like that? How? Can you? Is there any punishment valid when he tells you it's just as much your fault as his? And you know he's right??? "One of Amsterdam's most attractive features, which I noticed the first day, was its "outdoor" nature. Lots of people in the parks and streets, sidewalk cafes everywhere, constant bicycle traffic, music from organ grinders and buskers, and more noise from conversation than from cars." --Phillip Agee. From his book "On The Run." Louder Than Bombs is a non-violent direct action noise brigade that uses mostly (but not only) homemade instruments. We belive in the following: Anti-Racism, Anti-Sexism, Anti-Globalization, Anti-Militarization, Environmental Protection, Human Rights, and Animal Rights. We plan to use noise as a means of protest to fight for these causes. We need help starting this group. If you are interested in working with us and believe in any of our causes, contact us. Please be willing to share any ideas you have. Hope to work with you in the future.
