When the Levees Broke...Spike Lee doc



It's been nearly a year since Hurricane Katrina ripped through New Orleans and the Gulf Coast. This weekend, AP reported (and this one's a shocker folks) that "the federal government has proven slow and unreliable in keeping the president's promises" to supply aid to the region.

For example, NPR reports that the home of 74-year-old Ethel Williams, which Bush promised in an April 2006 photo-op would be rebuilt, still sits untouched. Says Williams: "[W]e all disappointed because nothing’s been done."

Is anyone surprised?

Tonight, the first part of Spike Lee's documentary, When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts, premieres on HBO from 9-11. The second part airs tomorrow evening. In it, Lee reports on the city of New Orleans and key figures surrounding the government's inept response to the natural disaster. Some, like Ray Nagin and Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Babineaux Blanco, talk. Others, like Homeland Security Chief and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, wouldn't. La Times writer Patrick Goldstein notes that Lee goes after Rice with particular interest ("When you're going to buy shoes while people are standing on the rooftops, waving brooms, you're part of the problem...").

Said Lee: "I just hope people come away from this film realizing this disaster didn't just happen to dumb-ass people who wanted to live below sea level. This was about the choices of our government. The National Guard was in Iraq, not in New Orleans."

The LA Times reports that Lee is not too favorable toward Mayor Ray Nagin either: "Even though Lee is often critical of Nagin, the film largely portrays him as an irrepressible New Orleans politico, especially when he recounts taking his first post-Katrina shower on Bush's plush Air Force One, which he describes as the ultimate 'pimp mobile.'"

Nagin recently slammed the Feds at a meeting of the National Association of Black Journalists in Indianapolis:

"Very little of those dollars have gotten to the local governments or to the people themselves. We are being strangled, and they're using the money to set local policies to try to take control of the city to do things that they had in mind all along, and that's to shrink the footprint, get a bunch of developers in the city, and try to do things in a different way. We're not going to let that happen. They're going to give us our money, and we're going to rebuild this city."

So what does Labor Day hold in store for us this year? Last year, while watching the parade of reactions on national news to the lack of movement from our government, it was hard to believe what we were seeing. A city being virtually ignored, left to die. A year later there are no bodies left sitting outside the Superdome but that city must still stink of tragedy.

    My first rap video
    Current mood: pissed off

    I made a BAD MISTAKE when i agreed to be in a music video with EMINEM!! Why would i think doin my first music video with Eminem would be soooo tight?? i have no idea why cuz i never liked him in the first place but getting the so called opportunity was something i wouldnt pass up which was a bad mistake hahaha!!

    The reason for me doing the video wasnt for the money, it was to make all my fans happy that i finally did a rap video cuz we all know how much i talk about how much i wanna be in one..right?? well im getting right to the point by saying it was probably the worst experience of my life!!

    It all started off really cool when my best friend Brittany came up just to support me and cheer me on but not to mention her obsession over Eminem was also what made her drive all the way up for the day. When we first got there everyone like Akon came to say hi and greeted us. So i was so happy cuz it seemed like a start to a fun great day but a long fun great day huh huh!!

    So about ten hours later(waiting in a cafeteria) i finally get my call to come in and shoot the scene with eminem. I was lookin the hottest of the hot(not conceided) and i was ready to go with my hair all done and everything, sooo happy. so we start by doing some warmups and i was dancing my ass off(literally) cuz it was my time to shine in front of David Banner, Lil Zane, and a couple other rappers and 100s of people.D eveyone was lovin my dancing and makin me feel good. Then Eminem walks in the room lookin like hes overdosing on drungs. We met and he was really nice to begin with and he was saying things like how he watches the show and how he got our issue of playboy and he wants me to sign it so i was very flattered and happy. Then we start doing our scene and everything is goin good until we go on a break. I went over to sit on the couch to rest a lil bit and i started talking to this really nice guy. Next, i look over and see Eminem walkin towards me. I smile and say "whats up?", he takes out a bottle of water and pours it all over me!!! There goes my makeup, there goes my hair, there goes my tears, and there goes my first rap video!!! Yes i charged at him to knock him out, only got him a lil bit though cuz of his big ass body guard that was in my way.

    All i have to say about this is I feel way more sorry for him than i do hate him over this!! even though i yelled out probably 100000 times i hate him haha!! He has to act like a 5 yr old lil kid by pouring water on me to make himself feel better about his sad life. Everyone like Akon came over to make me feel better and that was really cool of them but inside i was dying!! i was so embarrassed and humiliated! So many people after that said they will never support him anymore and they will never listen to him anymore!! Hef felt sooo bad for me and was sooo pissed at Eminem, Hef HATES him now haha!!

    So i lived and i learned right?? I will never do a rap video again unless its three 6 mafia, too short, bow wow, or nelly!!! Nelly was so nice to me by sending me a letter along with an autograhed jersey and pimpjuice the day after this eminem video so now im happy again haha!!

    So all i can woder is why why why???? maybe he was loaded on drugs, maybe i reminded him of Kim, maybe he hates me..who knows!! all i know is i didnt do anything to him to make him do this to me. So im movin on with my life and putting this in the past but please dont buy any music from him anymore hahahahaa jk!! love u all and thanks for watching the show and listening to my sad story haha!! Peace

    KDUB

    saw this one coming...

    BOULDER, Colorado (CNN) -- Schoolteacher John Mark Karr will not be charged with the murder of 6-year-old beauty pageant competitor JonBenet Ramsey, Karr's attorney said Monday.

    "The warrant on Mr. Karr has been dropped by the district attorney," public defender Seth Temin said outside the jail. "They are not proceeding with the case."

    He said a hearing scheduled later Monday afternoon has been canceled.

    Temin also said he was "deeply disturbed" that authorities in Boulder brought Karr from Thailand with what appears to have been scant evidence.

    Colorado authorities have not commented on their decision not to pursue charges against the man named in a warrant alleging murder, kidnapping and sexual assault on a child.

    But CNN's Denver affiliate, KUSA, reported that the DNA sample taken from Karr does not match DNA found on JonBenet's body. KUSA quoted two sources in a bulletin on its Web site.

    KUSA reported that samples of Karr's saliva and hair were taken in Boulder after his arrival Thursday evening. Those samples were tested over the weekend by the Denver Police Department's crime lab.

    Those tests ruled out Karr's DNA as the foreign DNA left on JonBenet's body when she was slain in December 1996, the station reported on its Web site.

    CNN is working to independently confirm the report.

    Karr still could face child pornography charges in California.

    Earlier Monday, Karr's defense team requested that prosecutors hand over DNA evidence in the Ramsey case.

    The 41-year-old suspect was being held in Boulder County Jail on suspicion of first-degree murder, first- and second-degree kidnapping, and sexual assault.

    It was not immediately known whether he would be freed or transferred to California.

    Karr was brought back last week to the United States from Bangkok, Thailand. He arrived in Colorado Thursday evening from California, where he skipped bail in 2001 after being charged in Sonoma County with five misdemeanor counts of possessing child pornography.

    Karr appeared at a brief hearing in Los Angeles and waived extradition to Colorado. (Watch Patsy Ramsey's sister reveal what the family will do if Karr isn't guilty -- 4:11)

    He told reporters in Thailand he was with JonBenet the night she died, and that her death was an accident. The child's beaten and strangled body was found December 26, 1996, in the basement of her family's Boulder home.

    Autopsy results showed she had suffered a blow to the head and been strangled with a garrote tightened with a paintbrush handle.

    After Karr's statements in Thailand, questions have surfaced as to whether the slight, soft-spoken man could have been involved in the grisly killing.

    Earlier this year, Michael Tracey, a journalism professor at the University of Colorado, alerted authorities to e-mails he had been receiving from a person now believed to be Karr.

    Tracey, who has produced a documentary about the Ramsey case, said there was something in the e-mails "that made me decide I had to try and do something." But he would not say just what prompted him to contact prosecutors.

    A law enforcement official told CNN that Karr's e-mails to Tracey were initially innocuous but that the professor contacted authorities when they became "weird." The communications were eventually tracked to Thailand.

    gay people are the problem...

    A local evangelist spoke with 10TV Thursday night after his son was arrested for possessing child pornography.

    Zachary Daubenmire, recently hired to teach special education at Licking Heights High School, was out on bond Thursday after admitting to downloading video of young girls having sex with adult men onto a family computer.

    Daubenmire was also a volunteer assistant football coach at Heath High School. But after the charges came about, he was let go.

    His father, Dave Daubenmire, says what happened with his son could happen to any family.

    The elder Daubenmire is well known locally for being sued by the American Civil Liberties Union for conducting prayers with players before football games at London High School. He is also a longtime Christian leader who has worked to teach others about the dangers of pornography.

    "Its certainly an addiction this struck our son -- our 24 year old son -- who has never been to the principal's office in his life," Dave Daubenmire said.

    His son was set to start teaching at Licking Heights High School this academic year. But Thursday night, the school district was calling for the younger Daubenmires resignation. And if he does not step down, board members indicate they plan to terminate him.

    His father says his son would never hurt children.

    You know what I'm going to say as a father: of course not. But ask the people who have been around him, the people he's coached with, the school system that he's worked with. He's a model guy.

    The Licking County Sheriff's Office said the investigation started after a computer repair company contacted authorities saying they had found child pornography in the process of doing some repair work.

    Investigators interviewed Daubenmire. They say he admitted to downloading the video clips and images and trading them with other people over the Internet.

    Daubenmire's father hopes that what has happened to his family will help other families be more aware of the problems of child pornography.

    "I tell people this: go home tonight and check your child's computer. Look into their files and hack into their files. It was in our home under our eyes," Dave Daubenmire said emotionally.

    Zachary Daubenmire's father said he has not seen the pictures or the evidence. But regardless of what's next in his son's future, he plans to stand behind him.

    Detectives indicated they do not believe he has committed any other crimes.

    2 lives cut short & 1 forever changed

    It was summer...July 1997
    I remember the day vividly
    My family was living in University Park
    Part of the Park Cities, Highland Park
    Population of about 5,000 residents
    A small suberb of Dallas, TX
    It was called "the bubble"
    A reclusive neighborhood
    Where the average house
    Cost over half a million
    A safe, family neighborhood
    Kids were allowed outside
    After dark, unsupervised
    Rich Suburbia USA

    I do not recall exactly what alerted us
    Of the crowd gathering a block away
    All the neighbors talked to each other
    Word spread in seconds in the bubble
    Anyway my dad and I were home alone
    And both walked around the block
    To see what all the hype was about

    As soon as we rounded the corner
    The crowd was visible, as was the police tape
    I knew the house quite well
    I used to babysit for the family who lived there
    And had moved out a year or so before
    I had no clue who had moved in
    And how closely connected I would be
    To the tragedy that occurred hours earlier

    A suicide, maybe a murder
    Was word on the streets
    Not too unfamiliar
    It was a rental house
    A few years back, another rental
    Directly behind our house
    A woman known affectionately
    In the 'hood as "the crazy lady"
    Because she always thru out cool stuff
    Like fully new, unused stuff
    We loved trash can shopping
    Behind her house

    Anyway this lady, married, just had a baby
    One night saw car lights thru her window
    As the word on the street went
    She killed herself and the baby
    Allegedly thinking someone was after them
    It was all the hype, no one knew them
    And the 'parkies' as they were called
    Loved the goss -- especially about things unknown
    The house remained vacant for a year
    Then was torn down, rebuilt, and sold

    We returned home, pretty much unfazed
    Unfazed compared to what soon was clear
    Not two hours later, we were all home
    My mom came and told us something happened
    A VP at my dad's company is coming over
    And we must stay upstairs and out of the way

    Moments later the front door opened
    The 3 brothers Taylor of course
    Were peaking down, out of sight
    At the entry hall, dying 2 know
    My dad entered with a familiar man
    A man way too familiar, to just be a work guy
    Clutching a framed picture, beyond tears
    It hit me, like a ton of bricks how I knew this man

    I had babysat for his 2 kids the summer before
    2 beautiful, crazy energetic kids at his condo
    He was divorced and had them for the summer
    Hired me to watch them while he worked days
    All summer long I spent with them, a boy & girl
    The boy was about 8 or 9, the girl 6 or 7
    It was one of the most fun summers of my life
    Not only because of the abundance of cash
    In my young, never full pocket
    But we would have so much fun
    Everyday stuck in the condo
    Doing practically nothing
    Hours and hours of fun

    Still the details were fuzzy as hell
    And with my parents remained that way
    For quite some time
    Bits and pieces being leaked out
    Over the next few days
    The house around the corner
    His ex-wife had rented

    It was he who came to pick up the kids
    That awful day in July where we all gathered
    He who called 911 pleading, crying hysterically
    Found his son first murdered, cuts from a knife
    Unsure where his ex-wife and daughter were
    How exactly the aftermath played out
    Is still a mystery, and rightfully so I think now
    Later the police found his ex-wife and daughter
    Both dead from knife lacerations
    Apparently blood was tracked all thru the home

    According to the police chief, in the news paper
    University Park averages 2-3 homicides a year
    We found out -- much to all of the neighbors shock
    This was the first of '97 lil' chiefy was quoted saying
    How fucking insensitive I thought then, and now
    Although he followed that up with a quote about
    What a tragedy 4 all, UP hadn't seen anything like this b4
    The Dallas Coroner ruled it a double murder-suicide
    Due to "multiple sharp-force injuries"

    My parents hid all the press, we couldn't watch TV
    But I ended up finding it all eventually, some yrs later
    In hindsight, I wish I hadn't read so much detail
    Half a dozen suicide notes found all over the house
    Transcripts of the 911 call, descriptions of the scene
    Horrific, awful details no one should know
    Especially someone close to those involved

    The mourning father spent a lot of time at our house
    Over the next week or so, the kids upstairs always
    The adults downstairs doing god knows what
    However even as a young kid, barely double digits
    I could feel the horrible, dark, sad energy in the house
    That never seemed to leave forever after
    Not that future events within the family didn't help
    To add to that potently awful feeling
    Even friends commented about my house having

    I was not allowed to go to the funeral, my moms orders
    I was told seeing me was a constant reminder of the kids
    The kids alive, happy, on and on so I did not go
    Something to this day I often wonder if I had
    Would I still be so immersed in this 10 year old incident
    It took me years after when I'd go up to the office
    To be able to go into my dad's colleague's office & say hello
    I didn't want to trigger him or make him sadder than he already must be

    I still think about him almost daily, the kids faces remain in my brain forever
    Images so clear its as if it's their actual pictures are in front of me
    I wonder what would have happened to them, what they would have become
    They'd be out of high school now; moving onward and upward I'm sure
    I think of their father equally often, so curious about how he is doing
    My dad is a very stoic unemotional man -- u pick ur touchy topics with him
    I think I recall years ago bringing up the subject and heard he was engaged
    Trying to start over a new, I imagined

    Since my dad's interest in the company were dissolved
    And I doubt, but don't know, if he still keeps in touch
    Nor would I dare bring this up -- I already have enough 2 struggle thru w/ him
    But I have faith and hope that my powerful, positive thoughts
    I'm constantly sending his way reach him successfully
    And that he's has nothing but the best things in life
    Going on for him now, as I know he'll never forget
    That hot muggy July afternoon
    And his two beautiful babies
    Gone now forever

    Sending out PEACE & LIGHT to all tonight...

    good friday 2 u all

    “I want to have only very limited comment on today’s arrest because I feel it is extremely important to not only let the justice system operate to its conclusion in an orderly manner, but also to avoid feeding the type of media speculation that my wife and I were subjected to for so many years…the investigation of the individual arrested today in connection with JonBenet’s death was discussed with Patsy and me by the Boulder district attorney’s office prior to Patsy’s death in June. So Patsy was aware that authorities were close to making an arrest in the case and had she lived to see this day, would no doubt have been as pleased as I am with today’s development almost 10 years after our daughter’s murder.”

    i decided to give it up
    and start living my own
    reality
    4 real

    don't get me wrong
    i still watch shit
    pull favors
    watch dvd screeners
    and thank god
    4 the invention
    called youtube

    speaking of which
    i must admit
    i had a relapse
    briefly
    with janice dickinson
    what a train wreck
    i love, love her
    but i'm back on track
    i figured she'll crash
    and burn
    i'll read about it
    maybe catch the highlights real
    but i do not need to watch
    every step of the way

    big brother 4 or 7 uk
    pete everyone loved
    with ticks and turrets
    and a graphic past
    now being thrown
    all over the boob tube
    not 2 mention the chicks
    from that show
    if i see one more bb girl
    and her titties
    i'm going to scream

    not to mention the trash
    they find for flavor of love
    and americas next top model
    all with histories
    each one more tragic
    than the last
    reality tv has become competitive
    are you f*cking kidding me
    girls going all out
    gays acting a fool
    all for 15 seconds of fame
    and the chance to date
    some hot "celeb of the moment"
    ala laguna beach
    those rich f^ck ups
    seem 2 have mastered that art

    ok off the soap box i come
    but seriously
    what is wrong with us
    have we sunk that low
    turn off the god damn tv
    and go do something
    create your own reality
    i swear u will find it
    100x more fulfilling
    than ur fake reality tv fix
    the latest craze
    couch potato heroin
    i'm calling it

    now go
    do
    be
    act

    austin memories

    scott was a neighbor
    at the metropolis
    austin, south austin
    live across the
    courtyard of courtyards
    his roommate pete
    i think was his name
    was a lover of the ladies
    not that scott wasn't
    but scott got it
    his origin dallas
    modest mouse fan
    pot head
    but deeper thought
    was all about scott
    we went 2 the
    quinten t film festival
    together
    he got it

    we used to start
    many a morning together
    getting baked
    and listening
    2 awesome tunes
    and coffee
    can't forget that
    what a way
    2 start the day
    with this super
    human being
    scott

    something about
    the name
    holds power for me
    maybe it's my uncle
    god rest his soul
    my namesake
    but scotts'
    in my life
    are all powerful
    all meaning

    scott moved out
    sometime during
    my stay @ da met
    the crazy eclectic trap
    that complex was
    pete stayed
    with a cat
    but after he left
    it was all gone
    the magic
    the palpable moments
    him and i
    he got it
    i wanted 2
    get it

    i remember
    early on
    seeing him
    @ stubbs
    an austin staple
    at a mm concert
    back in the day
    b4 they became
    known for that
    1 tract mtv
    overplayed
    2 da max

    after that
    we were bonded
    somewhat
    somehow
    we both got it
    words weren't
    necessary

    he lived next
    door 2 thomas
    the pot dude
    whose kid i
    babysat
    in exchange
    4 weed
    back in da day
    wow times have
    changed

    he was layed back
    relaxed; so cool
    our morning coffees'
    and music sessions
    with the bong
    of course
    were meaningful
    to me
    still 2 this day
    scott l
    wherever u are
    hit a brotha up
    u r awesome kid
    and always part
    of this kids crew
    4 ever young
    u know who u are
    here's 2 hoping
    all is good
    w/ u as is w/ me
    love and peace

    hypcrite named trip

    queer theory
    according to
    david trip
    is the rejection
    of all identity
    isn't queer
    an identity
    that is my
    question
    4 u all

    who falls into
    this neat new
    category we
    call queer
    this safe
    sane place
    where the
    objectified
    can call home

    gays
    lesbos
    bis
    tris
    trans
    inters
    drags
    fags
    dls
    closets
    that's my
    ? 4 u all

    trip didn't like it
    neither did
    the angry
    short haired
    overly aggro
    dyke sitting
    across da room
    from me
    who is against
    equal rights
    gay marriage

    what the fuck
    i wanted 2 scream
    at this crazy biach
    as she debated me
    saying she wouldn't
    get into this in front
    of the whole class
    then why start it
    twat

    the victims of 911
    their families
    the str8 ones
    received a settlement
    the "gay" ones
    received nothing
    is that justice
    is that what ur against
    man hating hoop wearing
    freak of nature

    she read a passage
    from the text
    "queer theory"
    about a str8 prof
    at some university
    in god knows where
    teaching queer theory
    saying fuck him
    he is not queer
    he has no right
    2 be doing so
    divorce his wife
    live the queer life
    then he can speak

    what the fuck
    i fumed inside
    at her biased ways
    is this not
    what we r fighting
    against?

    the oppression
    of the "str8 man"
    equal rights
    equality
    2 be seen
    as "same"
    binary opposition
    i think trip called it
    in his pseudo intellectual
    sycophant rant
    now i know
    why people say
    he's a self absorbed
    egotistical closed minded
    prick

    i think i will take another
    class with this trip
    as i like a challenge
    and frankly like to stir shit up
    with this motherfucker
    who cannot be stirred
    bring it on brotha
    oh yea
    and ur like 60
    time to cut off
    that pony tail
    left over
    from the hippy
    days of yonder
    no more

    this fag
    is done
    ranting
    and
    raving
    4 today

    communication

    why is communication
    somtimes so difficult
    looking people in the eye
    and processing what they say
    really listening
    finding intrest
    is hard at times
    if you deny this
    you are a liar
    and you suck

    no to be 4 tha reals
    it's inate in us all
    to say "that's interesting"
    not meaning it
    but a desperate attempt
    to validate what someone
    just said 2 u while u
    didn't even listen

    hearing and listening
    2 differnt fields 4 sure
    my new favorite band
    jump, little children
    i listen to their songs
    i hear the lyrics
    powerful
    palpable
    or popable
    as rosie mis-understood me
    back in the day
    thought i was saying her turth
    one could pop as superficial

    funny how we read what we want to
    see what we want to see
    reality is such a funny thing
    as we all experience
    what we want to
    out of any happening
    just a rant
    from me

    bias ya'll!

    ps - i'm in love right now with janice dickingson's oxygen show
    what a train wreck -- diva -- persona that biach is! check it out
    on TV or youtube or bittorrent
    just see the shit
    and little miss sunshine the film
    ok now i'm out

    why you should wear a bike helmet

    today on the way home
    i tried to think of any excuse
    to cancel my personal trainer today
    i simply did not want to work out
    every fiber of my being said HELL NO

    i got home at fifteen minutes b4
    i had to jump on the bike
    for the 2.5 mile ride
    to my trainer's house
    i obviously had no excuse
    she sees right thru me
    unfortunatly

    so i'm riding my usual route
    not even half a mile from my house
    i notice a white jeep grand cheroke
    trying to run a stop sign
    i stop to avoid him
    he stops suddenly
    i proceed across the intersection
    and just then BAM!

    the mother fucker hit me
    i kid you not -- i got hit by a car
    granted it wasn't a high speed collision
    but still i was hit by a mofo car
    and taken down to the ground
    if u know me u know i've waited for this day my entire life
    hello lawsuit!

    he rolls down his window
    and is extremely appologetic
    he reaches in his back pocket
    and tries to give me money
    cotinuing to appologize profusly
    in what must have been a rusian accent

    i noticed the liscence plate on the front of his car
    on the bumper that moments ago had collided with me
    the thought of getting the number entered my head
    then i don't know what came over me
    but i found myself saying

    "no man, it's cool. keep your money"
    as i rode away looked over my shoulder
    and said "today was ur lucky day...slow it down"
    and rode away -- i fuckin' rode away
    don't know why or what drove me at that moment
    but it was truly an out of body experience

    a few blocks later i saw a dude
    in a life size elmo costume
    walking down the street
    no point other than
    another oddity
    thought i'd share

    monday august 2, 2006
    the day drama got hit by a car
    who would have thunk it?

    re: hail to the cheifs

    my professor harvey mindess
    brought humor to the dull
    and dreary world of psychology
    and published that little ditty
    in the American Psychologist of 05/75
    it's in his book 'makers of psychology'

    funny little man
    full of stories
    and so much insight
    knew jung and rodgers too
    one his pupil, one gave him tools
    to deal with a current situation
    he was facing as a young lad
    w/ his newborn daughter in Zurich
    while in a pickle

    so much i can learn from this man
    who brought humor to the field
    my god -- a matching of the universes
    for me today in a random workshop
    i put the poem on the site
    because i find it hillarious
    on many levels

    hopefully just about anyone
    with psychology 1
    can get the gist
    and chuckle as i did
    along with this funny master
    of the field we call
    psychotherapy

    off to see an old friend
    i haven't seen in ages
    a glass of wine
    some cheer
    then 2 bed
    4 this punk

    got 2 wake up in the morn'
    and spend another day
    with the funny little man
    peace ya'll

    HAIL TO THE CHIEFS

    Come listen colleagues, while I relate
    A story that we can celebrate;
    It all began with Sigmund Freud,
    A man who thoroughly annoyed
    The doctors of his time and place
    Because he told them to their face
    That all their patients, nervous wrecks,
    Were suffering from screwed-up sex.

    Instead of chasing cute young yummies,
    Men were dreaming of their mommies,
    And women, picking up the fad,
    Were making plays for dear old dad.
    So though it sounds like Greek to us,
    Freud said, "Zeir problem iss Oedipus!"
    "I'll cure zem," he vowed "And to sveeten ze bargain,
    I'll srow in zum high-cless fency jargon."

    Repression, regression, reaction formation,
    Denial, avoidance, and rationalization,
    Projection, undoing, and compensation,
    Acting out and sublimation:
    If it weren't for Freud, where would we be,
    When it comes to talking about you and me?

    And then along came C.G. Jung,
    Whose sensibilities were stoong
    To the very core by people's problems,
    Because he believed they were caused by goblins
    And other strange creatures whose eerie screams
    Resounded through nightmarish dreams
    In which ancient gods and demons battled
    Until the dreamer's brains were rattled.

    "To explain it," said Jung, sitting back on his haunches
    "I sink I'll invent ze collective unconscious.
    I know my momma vill be overchoyed
    If I can manetch to top old Frued."
    No sooner said, of course, than done,
    And then he added, one by one,
    The thoughts that were to make us sure
    That he was deep, or at least obscure.

    Anima, animus, shadow, and Self,
    The fairy realm of witch and elf,
    Introvert, extrovert, archetype:
    For terms like these the world was ripe,
    And riper it grows and that's no maybe-
    We've really come a long way, baby!

    Meanwhile, on the ranch, our own Carl Rodgers
    Had devised a system by which old codgers
    And young snippets too could gain relief
    Without any odd European belief
    In archetypes or Oedipus--
    In other worlds, with little fuss,
    Less muss, no depth, and far fewer riddles,
    We all could become as fit as fiddles.

    Carl called his therapy nondirective,
    Then directed to his students to be reflective.
    "Not in terms of thinking," he told his hearers,
    "But in terms of acting like plate-glass mirrors."
    Repeat, repeat what your clients say;
    That's counseling in the Rogerian way.
    It was later found, in a study by Garrett,
    That Rogers was really a green-breasted parrot.

    Nevertheless, to his great credit,
    He gave us easy words to edit.
    Client-centered, open, and trust,
    Becoming, process, is all we must
    Learn to earn (and it's not hard)
    Carl Roger's positive regard.

    That brings us round to Frederick Perls,
    Whose penchant for pinching the bottoms of girls,
    Made lechery a therapeutic style
    And encouraged those shrinks who know what's worthwhile
    To develop it into an art of their own,
    An art that the world had never known--
    For where has there ever before been a doctor
    Who charged his patient while he foctor?

    "I do my sing and you do yours!"
    Snickered Perls, addressing the freaked-out boors
    Who sat at his feet, devouring blintzes.
    "Loose your mind and come to your sintzes!"
    They nodded, they swayed in perfect rhythm
    To let him known that they were with'm.
    "Effery act iss natural, including sodomy!"
    They rose in unison, chanting "Autonomy!"

    Despite nasty rumors, Fritz was not too far gone
    To engage in the game of inventing jar-gone.
    He called his treatment style Gestalt
    And won the prize (not by default)
    For being the most authentic conner
    In the here and now -- which is quite an honor.

    Finally, though, we have B. F. Skinner.
    No doubt about it; he's the winner.
    His cunning methods of shaping behavior
    Have qualified Him as the latest Saviour.
    While He explains human motivation
    As well as a pigeon explains The Creation,
    He has won the unqualified endorsement
    Of S*C*I*E*N*C*E* for naming reinforcement.

    The be-all and end-all of everything--
    What Kant might have called Das Dingaling-
    An-Sich. Besides which, He wrote Walden Two,
    Which gives Him edge over me and you.
    So even if He cannot tolerate
    To see a patient, we nominate
    Him titular head of Behavior Mod,
    The therapy that's next to God.

    Desensitization and reconditioning,
    Operant, classical, now He's petitioning
    To be anointed in a hurry.
    But never fear; we need not worry.
    When Skinner is crowned King of Dreams (or REMS),
    We'll all be rewarded with M&Ms.

    There are others, of course, but these are our heroes,
    And while some may say they're a bunch of zeroes,
    I submit that their therapeutic preachments
    Deserve neither censure nor impeachments.
    Man (and woman) kind might not be worse off without them,
    But the most magnificent thing about them
    Is the fact that they labored without misgiving
    So that you and I could make a living.

    hold on

    i've been asked this question
    in email and person
    more times than enough
    and it's taken me this long
    to come up with some responce

    people are calling for
    unconditional ceasefire now
    as u can sign a petetion
    on stopwar.org.uk
    as i did
    while blair and bush
    "allow" the attacks to go on
    "until we have a plan"

    this is an epedimic
    people
    fight fire with fire
    since when has this worked
    but its hard to say
    immediate ceasefire
    do as we say
    not as we do?
    hypocracy at its finest
    in this democracy
    we supposidly are fighting
    to spread such freedom
    around the world

    who says we are right
    who says i am right
    no one
    but it is our responsibility
    to take notice
    to be informed
    to take a stand
    for what we believe in
    turning a blind eye
    is no longer a choice

    below is a flick i found on u tube
    what a brilliant invention that
    not for the weak at heart
    however, powerful and punching
    all at the same time...

    be brave
    watch it
    stay informed
    sending all the love i can muster
    into the universe with this
    my little website, blog
    i believe in the light
    i have hope
    and faith

    light beats dark
    without fail
    time and time
    again
    hold on

    peace to all ya'll

    From Maya Angelou:
    “History, despite its wrenching pain,
    cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage,
    need not be lived again.”
