I've come up with a rather pleasant tune. I has a jazzy little melody, and the lyrics go a little bit like this:
Portland is the shiiiiiiiiit,
alla y'all haters can suck my dickkkkk.
My god...
I'm going to be rich.

St. Paul was also interesting.
Most certainly the worst city I've ever been to, but Minneapolis was certifiably rad.
The protests went arguably well, but a lot of houses were raided and innocent people jailed.
It's all over now, and I'm resting comfortably on a couch in Portland.
My new home is so wonderful.
There are so many fantastic things waiting for me outside of my front door.
Carpe diem, etcetera, et al.
I'm in the process of setting up my garden and the housing for my ducks.
My new home is so wonderful.
I ride my bike everywhere and only benefit from it.
My new home is so wonderful.
The only thing missing is Jasmin, but she'll be here soon enough.
Then my new home will be about as wonderful as physically possible.

Denver has been crazy, so far.
I've participated in a number of rallies and direct actions, most of which have ended in confrontation with the now 3,000 strong, $50 million federally-funded Denver Police Department(read: near-miss clubbings and ill-aimed pepper-spray bullets).
I almost got arrested Monday, along with a group of about 200 people.
Keyword: almost.
I've managed to avoid arrest so far, and the DNC is almost over.
The cops are brutal here. Notoriously brutal.
This entire city is under martial law; you can't spit without hitting a cop (not that one should aim elsewhere).
Today I marched with 10,000 people to the Pepsi Center (where the DNC is being held) alongside the IVAW (Iraq Veterans Against the War).
We converged upon the Pepsi Center with the intention of delivering a letter demanding the immediate withdrawal of the soldiers in Iraq, as well as complete care and benefits for returning G.I.s, to Obama.
After hours of negotiating with over 700 riot pigs watching, waiting, and flexing their trigger fingers, a veteran representative got to meet with an Obama liaison to arrange a meeting between the two groups.
We'll see if they actually keep their promise.

St. Paul/RNC is next, and I'm fucking pumped.
I've never been dirtier, happier, or more excited to be alive than I am right now.
Solidarity.

I'm off to Portland in two weeks, and on the the 18th I'll be throwing one last party at Rape Manor.
So, come on down around 10pm, and have a blast with me in Tempe one last time.
The address is 832 S. Maple Ave.
Bring booze, not bad vibes.

Hillary Clinton reminds me of an ex-girlfriend, and that is most certainly not a good thing.
What's next?
Is she going to date two guys at once, start cutting herself and tell me that she'll never be able to live if I leave her?
Holy Krist.
WOMEN HA HA AM I RIGHT GUYS

By the end of this year, I will have learned how to breakdance- this I solemnly vow.
I'm only going to use this for ill-thought-out promises from now on.
I promise.

I, (Greg Holzmann), will refrain from purchasing sustenance (e.g. pizza, soda, apples, beer, vitamin water, marshmallows, sunflower seeds, peeps, etc.) for a period of three (3) weeks, in an experiment to ascertain whether or not it is at all possible for me to live outside of one (1) facet of capitalistic wage-slavery.
I intend to survive off the waste of industrial corporations, so carelessly thrown aside when so much use has yet to have been pulled from it.
If said experiment proves to produce the expected results, than further experimentation will follow.
That is all.

I have this overwhelming urge to drop right off the grid- to live more simply, with less of an impact.
It seems like a cop-out to blame all of my problems on modern industrial society, but I can't help but point my finger.
You.
YOU, carbon footprints.
YOU, brown miasma of smog.
YOU, constant barrage of advertisements, which can be narrowed down ever further to,
YOU, television.
YOU, nihilism and ennui.
YOU, bourgeoisie, trampling the common man to "get ahead" (i.e. collecting more material wealth, which means more obligations and responsibilities, which means more wage-slavery, which means more unhappiness, which means you lose).
YOU, common man for being complacent, insisting on remaining ignorant and prejudiced, and rejecting concerned citizens' attempts to help you, off-handedly labeling them communists (though many of them are. odd, right?) without giving them even the time of day.
YOU, members of society for allowing all of this- these inhumane conditions of happiness, this greed, this mad, competitive scramble to get the most the fastest- to happen without getting absolutely FUCKING FURIOUS.
and last of all, ME.
For being too complacent.
For accepting what has been proffered to me.
For not doing enough.
I am doing my best to change my flaws.

My zines, "Self-Indulgence" and "Phanatic", are going national, thanks in part to the extreme amount of schmoozing I did at the ABA Winter Institute this past weekend.
Independent bookstores from Portland to Maine will be selling my measly little comics for 50 CENTS BY THE TON!
BUILD YOUR SUMMER COTTAGE!
LINE YOUR PARAKEET'S CAGE!
GIVE YOURSELF A SERIES OF MINUTE PAPERCUTS THAT ADD UP TO NEAR-FATAL BLOOD LOSS!
FUCK!
