I think it's more important these days an owner be covered with
a prominently displayed sign than that anyone ACTUALLY clean their hands,
huh?
"PLEASE EXCUSE OUR MESS WHILE WE CORDON OFF 3 AISLES AT A TIME WITH
SHIPPING TAPE AND PAPER TOWELS AND USE THESE SLOW HOURS TO WASH, WAX,
AND BUFF FLOORS, RESTOCK SHELVES, REPAIR FIXTURES LISTEN TO LOUD MUSIC,
AND DO ALL THE OTHER THINGS THAT 10 YEARS AGO WERE DONE WHEN A STORE
CLOSED DOWN FOR A FEW HOURS."

Virtual orgy.
Everybody trucking everybody else.
None of the "No-view-riche" knowing who to thank;
But all of the poor of the
Poorest of the poor certainly
Knowing who to blame.

Insanity.

LETTERS TO ATI:
Wishing you peace and love...

From: Ali Shehzad Zaidi
If the dance of the peacock can bring forests of desire, orchards of
fulfillment, into being, if the ghost dance of the Lakota can transfigure
the landscape with ancestral memory, then fusing our horizons into
history
we can remove from our universities this blight of statistics and
mendacity
and corporate logos and smiling men in suits. For an education that is a
shared adventure, not an ordeal of solitary confinement, for a human
condition in which we have fallen in love, for what The University wanted
to
be before it ever was, for the messages sieved from the prophetic sea of
images in our midst, for the moon that replenishes this night: restore
the
imagination to our curricula -- our very lives.
In other words, revolution now.

Prime Anarchist World News.
This one swiped from the Onion:
NEW YORK--A spokesperson for the letter D announced Monday that
the #3 consonant is withdrawing sponsorship from Sesame Street following a
Children's Television Workshop announcement that a homosexual muppet will
soon join the show's cast.
"The letter D is proud to have brought you many wonderful Sesame
Street episodes throughout the program's 28-year history," said Patricia
Willis, public-relations director for D. "But the letter D
does not condone the sort of morally questionable lifestyles that
Sesame Street is advocating with the introduction of this new character.
It can no longer in good conscience associate itself with the show."
Willis said D's withdrawal is effective immediately, and applies
to both capital and lower-case versions of the letter.
The gay muppet, "Roger," will be introduced on Sesame Street
Dec. 23, CTW director Leslie Charren said. Thus far, no other sponsors
have pulled out, though the number seven has requested an
advance tape of the episode before it makes a decision.
Many public-television insiders believe D's withdrawal was
motivated by a desire not to alienate religious conservatives,
a section of the population that employs the letter frequently.
"D is for, among other things, demagoguery, dogma and doctrine,
words crucial to right-wing groups like the Christian Coalition," said
Yale University political-science professor J. Wright Franklin.
"It is likely that D felt it could ill afford to offend such a
large segment of its users."
While a long-term replacement for D has not yet been secured
by Sesame Street, the number three will temporarily fill in for it
in a number of the show's animated shorts. Other pieces will simply
skip from C to E, with vocalists stretching out C into two syllables
to match the rhythm of the alphabet song.
Sesame Street is stung by the sudden departure of its longtime
supporter. Speaking to reporters, cast member Cookie Monster said:
"Me disappointed letter D choose to end relationship with Sesame Street
due to pressure from extremely vocal minority. We accused of endorsing
deviant lifestyle. Me say homosexuality natural, not immoral.
Diversity and enrichment. That good enough for me."

PAWN /Washingmachineton/ ALL US TROOPS WILL BE INOCULATED AGAINST ANTHRAX.
The largest peace-time boat-lift on-going in US history.
"Not since Joesph Smith canoed three Hopi and 7 Navajo down
the Rio Grande, has a larger percentage of a population voluntarily
undergone tic-bite treatments," said Joseph Biafra, of CDC.
Four ships a day will port off Plum island, L.I for the next seven
months, while soldiers, sailors and marines undergo 3 days and 4 nites
each of beer-drinking, carousing and letting ticks bite them in hopes
that they will catch anthrax, according to Biafra.
"Thems that live'll be thems that make us stronger," said
Connecticut Governor John Jacob Rovland at a recent rock concert held
to raise funds for the Long Island Island.
