Date with the Venezuelan girl today. brunch. Nice. smart. Not much English. So communication was minimal, which is always a great thing. lol. I just need to say that I am so in love with this hofner acoustic guitar. It is a 1968. built in Germany. Smells so old and musty. I breathe it in and I start playing and pretty soon I feel as if I am in another world. Last night and then this morning I bought two more very old acoustic guitars. I am falling in love with this. the older the better. But they still have to be in great shape and very playable. One was a 72 Alverez, very fancy, lots of mother of pearl. Bought it from the original owner, an 85 year old man. The other is a 1965 Kay blues arch top. Cannot wait for them to arrive. I get a lot of music out of old guitars. Something comes into me when I am playing one. Something of the vibration of the guitar itself and the era it was made. And of course the sound and feel and smell of them. I have slept with this new Hofner guitar now for a week straight and almost completely forgotten about all the others. 

The American military found saddam Hussein today in Iraq. In the morning. The spokesman for the dark side of the force that that took over America in the year 2000 claimed today that “a dark and painful era is over.” He didn’t actually write this but someone wrote it for him and told him to say it. We are not really sure yet who is running America, although we know that the men doing a lot of the dirty work are just as sinister and ill-intentioned as the ones who are secretly in control. We are sure that whoever wrote this understood the irony as much as many Americans and other people from all over the world do today. It is not that a dark and painful era is over so much as today was a very painful reminder of what a dark painful era we are in the middle of. The dark side will use all of its power in the media to control the feelings of the majority of the American people [known as the Innocents], to try to convince them that today is a day of celebration. Even though saddam Hussein didn't actually do anything to us here in America, even though he didn't actually possess weapons of mass destruction and pose a threat to us here in America, even though according to evidence he didn't have anything to with the attack on 9/11, and even though it has been announced over and over again all over the world that this invasion of Iraq was something planned out back in 1997 by the very same men who are in power now in the now infamous essay describing how it would be a very good idea for America to control the oil reserves in Iraq, the list goes on and on---but the Innocents have already been led very far astray, the smiling puppet faces on their TVs are doing their best to keep straight faces and tell them that this is a good thing that the dark forces that hold America captive have now captured this man of disrepute known as saddam Hussein. 

It is not that the rebel forces and the freedom fighters and the American patriots and the political activists all over the world who see the evil in the dark forces who hold America hostage now think that saddam Hussein is a good man. No one does. It is very clear to see that he is also a bad person who has done much damage to his people and other nations. I don't think that anyone disputes this fact. But I think, I cannot speak for the tens of millions of others, but only for the small group that is here in America, I think that the really important thing to bear in mind is that America has now been completely duped; our once great but slightly flawed heritage entirely overshadowed by the dark forces that have taken over. The tables have been turned and the entire world is being lied to on a daily basis by this sinister crew that has taken over America’s grand old white house. Its not that people don't see that saddam was a bad person. its just that people also see that there are plenty of bad leaders all over the world, and that doesn’t give America or any other country the right to invade that country and take it over, unless of course there is an imminent threat to their peoples safety or security, which of course by now the whole world knows there was not. Especially not when it is done on false pretenses. Especially when it is used as a means to take away the peoples attention from the real intentions of the invasion, and especially when one of the most tragic events in our short history is used as its justification calling card.

Today is a day of mourning for many whose ambition is truth and justice, peace and sovereignty. For many Iraqis life will get better than it ever was. We believe this. but alas only if they are willing to do whatever we tell them to do from now on. That is just the way it is now for them, as it is and has been for many countries all over the world who have been bullied and tossed about by the all powerful dark forces that control the great country of America. their leader, their dictator is now gone. And in the long run that can only be a good thing. but he has been replaced with a new dictator. The same one that now occupies the country of America and many others. America is now in the midst of a very subtle but powerful war. It is war of words and of ideas. It is a war between the truth and many fictions. It is a war between those who know and those who don't. Unfortunately those who don't know far outnumber those who do. the innocent masses who don't know seem to be in a state of shock and denial. Everyday they hear little things about the growing matrix that encapsulates us all in lies and deceptions. Scams and scandals abound, but they do nothing about it. they just watch more and more TV and seem to buy more and more things. anything to try not to feel or think about the truth.
