Bio
1. "Do not ask who I am and do not ask me to remain the same: leave it to our bureaucrats and our police to see that our papers are in order. At least spare us their morality when we write."
-Foucault.

2. "The doctrine holds no content"
-Spann

4. About me: easily excitable, embattled, the product of long hours.

5. This journal operates on three levels: the public posts about politics, art, music, literature, booze, and my observations on whatever else interests me, a friends only filter where we talk about politics within a closed group and an even smaller friends filter where I gaze into my own navel about my person life. I have a very liberal friends policy, so please, join the party.

6. I update here fairly frequently, usually once a day, sometimes more, and right now a lot of the entries are part of a project I am doing where I write reviews of every book I have read sine 1993. I have about seven hundred and something more of those to go. Yikes.

7. Other subjects covered: politics (both radical and mainstream), working out, web phenomenons, gossip, art, music, and cinema.

8. Once a month, we tell secrets.
