Apparently I missed the beginnings of a good round of spats over our near and 
dear Ralph Nader.  I don't know exactly whats been said, but from reading 
Knightowl's last post it appears someone took Ralph to task for being, among 
other things, a really unsightful adjective.  Too bad.  Personally, if you're 
young and not a member of the rich or ruling elite, I don't see how Nader's 
message can't resonate but maybe thats just me.  Apparently, the reduction of 
government to basic logical principles (and the desire to make corporations 
responsible for their actions) seems to be so revolutionary and unheard of to 
other politicians and the masses, that he's already being treated as the 
election's requisite "loose cannon", and as Steven Kado pointed out, he and 
Pat Buchanan will most likely not be allowed to participate in the debates 
this fall (sponsored by Annheiseur-Busch, in all seriousness).  I think even 
the staunchest of Green Party supporters will admit that Nader has virtually 
no shot of winning this election, but their goal is not the White House but 
rather to bring various issues into the public arena and to make people 
cognizant of whats REALLY going on in DC.  How wrong is that?  Just ask the 
GOP and DNC, both of whom are shitting three bricks a peice to keep him in 
the dark.  If anyone feels so inclined, Nader's website is 
http://www.votenader.com....go see what all the fuss is about.
Has anyone ever noticed that TBWTAS (the song) sounds like a pussy-fied cover 
of the Doors "Roadhouse"?  It even has the exact same organ lick pulsing 
through the entire song.  Its not in the same key or anything, but its still 
uncanny.
My band Callow will be on a compilation thats been put together by Sinister's 
own Steve Genge and Amanda Bergman-Genge.  The Lucksmiths and Clock Strikes 
Thirteen are also on there, so I hope you'll check it out sometime this 
winter.  
Well, I hope everyone's summer is still going well...men's basketball season 
is right around the corner, and Mrs. Llew can look forward to 6 whole months 
of beat-downs.  Word up...
