Over slept... waaaaaaaay over slept today, but being that it's the weekend, eh fuck it.

My parents visited the family in Beer Sheva and brought back a totally bitchin' bookshelf for me that they wanted to get rid of.

Woot!

Never again the double layering of books, I now have three bookshelves in my room and Crikey they're almost full the brink! Not good, must cease the acquiring of books and comic books... but I must have more!
In any case, I now have to do a whole rearrangement so that I have a shelf for my future non-computerized University notes and papers.

Eeeps, I'm starting school in October, I haven't studied anything of had a structured learning experience in over three years!

Meep.

In addition, the genocide in Darfur must be stopped.

[livejournal.com profile] beckyzoole posted an entry featuring Don McLean's "American Pie".
Well, I decided to copy her example and post here the lyrics.
It's a beautiful song and like many of 60's and 70's folk songs is still relevant.
it obviously talks about a distinctly American experience, but I think the message of the song crosses the borders as music often does.

Madonna's version has little to do with the vision of the song which is excellently executed in the video



Don McLean's "American Pie"
A long, long time ago...
I can still remember
How that music used to make me smile.
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And, maybe, they’d be happy for a while. )

In addition, the genocide in Darfur must be stopped.

V and Justice

V: Ah, I was forgetting that we are not properly introduced. I do not have a name. You can call me V. Madam Justice...this is V. V... this is Madam Justice. hello, Madam Justice.

Justice: Good evening, V.

V: There. Now we know each other. Actually, I've been a fan of yours for quite some time. Oh, I know what you're thinking...

Justice: The poor boy has a crush on me...an adolescent fatuation.

V: I beg your pardon, Madam. It isn't like that at all. I've long admired you...albeit only from a distance. I used to stare at you from the streets below when I was a child. I'd say to my father, "Who is that lady?" And he'd say "That's Madam Justice." And I'd say "Isn't she pretty."

V: Please don't think it was merely physical. I know you're not that sort of girl. No, I loved you as a person. As an ideal.

Justice: What? V! For shame! You have betrayed me for some harlot, some vain and pouting hussy with painted lips and a knowing smile!

V: I, Madam? I beg to differ! It was your infidelity that drove me to her arms!

V: Ah-ha! That surprised you, didn't it? You thought I didn't know about your little fling. But I do. I know everything! Frankly, I wasn't surprised when I found out. You always did have an eye for a man in uniform.

Justice: Uniform? Why I'm sure I don't know what you're talking about. It was always you, V. You were the only one...

V: Liar! Slut! Whore! Deny that you let him have his way with you, him with his armbands and jackboots!

V: Well? Cat got your tongue? I though as much.

V: Very well. So you stand revealed at last. you are no longer my justice. You are his justice now. You have bedded another.

Justice: Sob! Choke! Wh-who is she, V? What is her name?

V: Her name is Anarchy. And she has taught me more as a mistress than you ever did! She has taught me that justice is meaningless without freedom. She is honest. She makes no promises and breaks none. Unlike you, Jezebel. I used to wonder why you could never look me in the eye. Now I know. So good bye, dear lady. I would be saddened by our parting even now, save that you are no longer the woman I once loved.

*KABOOM!*
