nation

why not to fall for blind, intolerant, ugly nationalism:

why do people become offended when flags are burned, and countries are compared like hot rod cars? who cares, its not personal, were all immigrants(except native populations), get over it. i only live in this country, its not a personal attack, and theyre only words. id tend to side with the opinion that the entire concept of nation-states and countries is rather ridiculous, as theyre only artificial boundaries. but since most of the population conduct their lives in the pursuit of material wealth and power(ie land ownership, wars to protect land), what else would you expect from the powers that be..

also, land of the dead was amazing.

number 3

saw star wars 3. ok at best. ties up the loose ends i suppose. over-hyped.
picked up the new bane record. its good. not sure if i like the production yet. cant hear the guitars. ill give it some time yet though.
foo fighters covering kiss the bottle? terrible. and its not a very good cover. go cover a crappy vanilla rock band like yourselves.
