"Dude, I'm deep into yer EMA#8, 'dru...you've outdone yerself regarding yer selctions, I'll be absorbing these CD's fer weeks..."

Excellent.
Were *engineered* to provoke thought...all kinds of thought.
Sounds like I hit a bullseye with you, which in all honesty I knew they would. {~K went ballistic over 'em, too :o) }
Many of the cuts I selected with you in mind, would ya believe?

"...but I can tell you I like Stevie Wonder's "Big Brother", the Talking Heads' "Democratic Circus", and Commando Cody's "Seeds and Stems"..."

They are unique, aren't they?
Even though many are at or over 30 years old, I find it amazing how little things have changed makeing the various messages ageless.
Only our POV changes.

Put K on a jet to Brewtown this morning after a wonderful & long 4 day weekend.
That'll be over as we close on the new place Dec 10th and will be moved shortly thereafter.

Of course we were *at* the polling place when it opened to vote and went out for a good ol' country breakfast, afterwards.
Heavy turnout here on the Mason-Dixon, bud...had a 40 minute wait which is amazing for the area I live.
Yup, people were turning out in droves, in the rain, to send a message of their own.

Exactly *what* that message is?

...will tell all the whole story.

STEVIE WONDER's "Big Brother"

Your name is big brother
You say that you're watching me on the tele,
Seeing me go nowhere,
Your name is big brother,
You say that you're tired of me protesting,
Children dying everyday,
My name is nobody
But I can't wait to see your face inside my door

Your name is big brother
You say that you got me all in your notebook,
Writing it down everyday,
Your name is I'll see ya,
I'll change if you vote me in as the pres,
The President of your soul
I live in the ghetto,
You just come to visit me 'round election time

I live in the ghetto,
Someday I will move on my feet to the other side,
My name is secluded,
we live in a house the size of a matchbox,
Roaches live with us wall to wall,

You've killed all our leaders,
I don't even have to do nothin' to you
You'll cause your own country to fall

Pre...MUD
