I start with the front page, then the editorials, then the rest of the front section. I read the local news, the entertainment section, the comics and the bridge column. I read the business section, the health and food sections. I don't think there is a bigger buy for the money than a good newspaper. I like to keep track of what's going on in the world, and in our own country, even when it's disturbing, as it has been lately. The current administration seems to want to keep us all frightened so that they can stomp on our civil liberties at will.

Humanity i love you
because you would rather black the boots of
success than enquire whose soul dangles from his
watch-chain which would be embarrassing for both
parties and because you
unflinchingly applaud all
songs containing the words country home and
mother when sung at the old howard
Humanity i love you because
when you're hard up you pawn your
intelligence to buy a drink and when
you're flush pride keeps
you from the pawn shop and
because you are continually committing
nuisances but more
especially in your own house
Humanity i love you because you
are perpetually putting the secret of
life in your pants and forgetting
it's there and sitting down
on it
and because you are
forever making poems in the lap
of death Humanity
i hate you

She said:
Not for a Nation
Not for the flag
Of any land because myself was born there
Will I give up my life.
But I will love that land where man is free,
And that I will defend.
