I am still on strike, but I guess we can sing anyway. I have ladders and scraps of old drywall all over one room, and blotches of primer all over the outside of the house. I cannot get the primer off of my hands. Expensive primer washes off better than this primer does. I will … More Today

Concentration camps, people. Axé.
I am still on strike. I wrote this for love, not for money. “You were a ‘young Turk’ when you arrived here, but you are no longer,” noted my friend.

So I had a conversation about SEX — yes, SEX — with an old friend and I do mean from a very long time ago. He is now a major libertine. As I told him once I got a word in edgewise, he was out of line to be pressing this information upon me. Still, … More On Reeducation and Interrogation/Torture
