New D-Day for U.S. TV Viewers DTV 2 Days Away

Analog TV is shutting down. Digital TV is taking over. Friday, June 12th, 2009. Are you ready? According to Gary Lock at a White House briefing, Lock said, from data generated from Neilson Ratings of last Sunday, "around 2 percent of American families are not prepared for the transition" Lock cited seniors are a demographic well prepared and the small percent that are unprepared may be assumed to be procrastinating or simply do not care among other genuine reasons. I can't say that I blame them. I haven't watched a television for well over a year or so. I've had the rare opportunity to find cherished programming choices elsewhere. He also stated that the data showed a rush of increased calls in to request a coupon for the converter box which, if they do not have cable or satellite, they will have to purchase.

Cross Gender Superheroes? [ART]

I think many men can appreciate a good female superhero. Be it Wonder Woman, one of the female X-Men, or something in the video game world like Lara Croft. But imagine if some of your favorite heroes were women? Not just Wonder Woman, but let’s say The Flash or Daredevil. Guess what? People already have.

Hudgie Hit Me Back

Okay my Dipsetmuthafucka fans, you gotta check this out. The Youtube dancing fanatic, Mike Long's got a new website that just came up,
Our Man Hudgie with Hudgie and Pierre featured in their brand new online comic strip. Hudgie is a bad boy gangsta, son of Pierre, healing the world with his hip hop antlers and bucked teeth. You gotta see it to believe it. Yes, but it's true. He loves everyone. He'll scam into your heart every week with a new strip full of colour and love. But don't take my word for it. Go see for your self.

Death Jazz Trio???

Somebody slap me. How long have these guys been out and do they have music I can buy, download or...Where are they now? Who are they? Where and when can I see them again? I feel left out somehow.

YES WE CAN!!!

Today, I woke up with this song in my head, only the chorus, because I couldn't remember the rest of the song, who sang it or the title. After hours of searching I finally found it. This youtube video is quite remarkable, because as you will see, these black and white scenes are from forty years ago in the same park that President Elect Barack Obama gave his acceptance speech on November 4th 2008.

Now, I am convinced that we can change the world through strong diligent persistence and sheer hope, of course actions speak so much louder than words and music can ignite the soul and ideas to bring out our wildest dreams into the stark light of day. We can change the world, rearrange the world. Yes we can. It is such a fitting song for this victory but we must learn the truth now and really get to work. President Obama will only be able to do so much if we slack off, and I know that many of us want to do just that after this long and horrendous wait to change our current system.

Below is the video that really nails it for me. This man's name is John Perkins. He has two books out, "Confessions of an Economic Hitman" released in 2004 and another just released entitled "The Secret History of the American Empire". This man is a hero beyond all doubt to me and maybe for the rest of the world. He has the truth, and buddy I'm not kidding. The United States must learn of his stories and then and only then will we really be able to change the world. Go to his website, read his books and forever be changed. He appeared in Zeitgeist Addendum, a brilliant film illuminating his story. He's been speaking all over about his life and I feel thoroughly vindicated as someone who has been labeled a lunatic for going against the ways of the corporate world for, well let's just say, a while.

There's a slew of his speeches on youtube right now and google, but this is my favorite one of all. And don't believe one ounce of any rhetoric that comes out trying to discredit him, believe me, it's pure propoganda and smear tactics. Listen to him carefully and then decide.
