Cloudy Skies Welcome Thine Eyes

Sometimes it rains. Sometimes it pours. And other times, its just overcast the whole day. Either way, i love the rain, and the onslaught of overcast, cloudy, dreary-grey skies. you never feel like you should be doing anything else. its kind of like. Whatever, its a shitty day out im not missing anything.

on the other hand, when its nice out, your always like oh fuck! i should go to a park, save some seals from dying in the ocean, or I dont know make love underneath a waterfall. Regardless of the nature of these urges one thing remains the same. When its nice out. you cant chill, you need to get the fuck up off the couch and get the fuck out onto the frontier. It doesn't matter if that means walking through treacherous mountains, down the block to the bodega to buy looseys (3 for a dolla HOLLA!), or driving .3 miles to your friends house in your 45-cylender 1.0 mile to the gallon SUV.

Some people love that push. that kick in the ass. Others strive for excuses. who are you? whats the use, this thing is useless.

Taxes. Fuck Taxes

The decadent douchebags of debauchery sprinkled throughout wall street, (former) investment bankers, and the Washington waltz of clumsy corruption(ers?) have created a rather large hole in the once highly revered "american economy". Through a series of "clever accounting schemes" beginning in the early 90s, debt has been transferred, packaged, and resealed in a neverending effort to smother losses and decieve the public into thinking that everything is going perfect-until it bottomed out, and now its on us. so why should my tax dollars go into bailing out corporations and banks that i could careless about? it shouldnt. But, I guess theres nothing i can do about it now, not even my main man Barack can save us, the Bush administration managed to royally fuck everything up-and got away (but thats a whole 'nother story for another rainy day).

Heres my mission, and my request to all of my loyal compatriots fighting the man and day by day etching away at the establishment:

Get paid in cash. avoid taxes at all costs. Argue whenever tax is added onto any item you purchase; no matter how small, how seemingly insignifigant. You have to not give a fuck- you need to be a ruthless ninja of the night. use your tongues as swords and let them slit the throats of cashiers and tax collectors nationwide.

Linda-Sue (honest cashier): "that'll be 2.99 plus tax"
Loyal follower: "what.........the.....fuck did you just say?"
Linda-Sue: "um, I-I dont know what, what, wha-"
Loyal Follower: (coldly) "you said something after 2.99,"
Linda-Sue :"tax?"
Loyal Follower: "What if.......... i dont pay that?"
Linda-Sue: "you cant have your swisher-sweets"
Loyal Follower: "Oh- Oh, no you have got to be fucking kidding me."

he/she then proceeds to whip out a copy of the declaration of independence(from the Jose Luiz backpack of necessary documents and supplies for the modern day revolutionist mind), and proceeds to read it to the All-American Linda-Sue. and to the shock, disbelief, and horror of the 34 compliant tax payers in line behind you. Linda-Sue's whole world is turned upside down, right before there very tax-paying eyes)

It then proceeds to rain. inside. she lets her hair out. jumps up on the counter. and starts dancing. the back wall falls out and BAM! theres Def leppard playing, "pour some sugar on me"............................

If only this were real . If only the world were such a wonderfull place, perhaps we wouldnt have economic crises, perhaps we wouldnt even have economics. But its not. so now we have to deal with it. So have fun all of us (myself included) funding the very machine that perpetuated the downfall in the firstplace.

The World at a Glance

A creative masterpiece you say. Or is it really a sack of hay. There are somethings that I believe none of us will ever quite understand. A reason for poems, a walk for peace. Sometimes, you just have to go with it.

Living in the moment is one of the hardest things a human being raised in my generation can do. We are stuck in a mastermind contusion of ideological impatientness. The trend began with napster. at first you say, why pay when i don't have to? Then, why albums when I can just download the best song(s). (i use S in parenthesis because of the many a times "wonderfull" pop artists of the late 90s and "early millenium" only had one good song to album ratio) which entails a neverending cycle of recurring one hit wonders (britney spears, ricky martin)

I ask, why come out with an album to make a hit song?

(you know discussing the consipracy that the "big-bad" record companies are withholding the "hits" and using the filler as a means to aquire money; i mean thats why we all started downloading music in the first place, right?) lol

so we now have taken the art out of music, generalizing an artist to only one song, making the margin between musician and image even blurrier....You know its easy when a pop artist has a hit song to watch his music video (to your own shock, disbelief, and despair) a thousand times and then associate an image with him.

nevertheless, we can no longer listen to full albums because quite frankly, were too cheap to purchase them and only have a brief handfull of the artists songs at our disposal; a perfect mix to contract the worst disease: "auditory ADHD" (as i am officialy dubbing it) and switch songs, at will, random, and to the very irritation of a seasoned listener.

now we always need something catcy cause you know we dont listen to full albums now; cheap thrills. Visa ve, rap music. But thats another story. You may ask, so what? I cant listen to a full album or some bullshit, napster, whatever man. BUT! it transcends into the very world we call real. Now, when someones talking and they elaborate on a point and well you know blah blah blah...your mind just moves on, BAM! new topic crank en em out like steel in a coal mine.

so your pretiousness takes hold, "fuck other people if im not paying attention there just rambling" (chill bitchy girl/guy from an overly-wealthy suburban housing development) well im throwin you a curveball Linda-Sue. Due to your Auditory ADHD and (now) inherinit poor listening skills your mind wonders to creative depths unparalled to the pre-millenial mind but you only act at the metaphysical realm, "Great, Man!" you say in an airy dreamer voice. No sir, its not that your so overly intellectual you cant keep up with all the "bullshit" i.e. accepted truths, society. Your just to damn lazy to do the research.

oh and even if you did do the (dreaded) "research" there still these assholes who say wikipedia is an "unreliable source" .............the absurdity of the possibility of this truth upsets me from within.

so this "light-bulb" or "micro-wave" generation just dosent cut it with old school intellectuals. so, what....yeah i guess soooo what. i blame the internet. anything we want is a literal flick of the finger, a snap of the mouse; whichever be thy ways.

my next question....

is this a bad thing? i think so, which is why i deemed it necessary to mention in the life and times of the honorable Jose Luiz. I have some problems with my beloved "suedo hippie" generation. we dont read enough. we dont discuss enough. we dont THINK enough. its not just the conformists.............assholes. its everyones problem cause when it comes down to it, were just one generation of human beings co-existing on an overly populated and poorly managed chunk of rock spiralling around some huge empty space.



Speaking from the grim underbelly of the resistance,

A Day in The Life

Sometimes the quaintest things bring the queerest out in all of us. Here are several points which i believe need further explanation and board-certified case studies

1.human behavioral patterns around puddles. who jumps, who ponders then jumps, and then the zany few who ramble directly through the watery mess.

2. when drinking....
a. why do white people yell and get irritably corny
b. why do girls act less smart and more vulnerable?

3. End of Raeman noodle rituals, to drink the broth or not to drink the broth

4. Why are there 8 hot dogs in a package, but they only sell buns in 6's (fucking annoying)

5. On that note, why why do companies like sylvania G.E. and various other light-bulb brands not sell individual light bulbs, i had to buy 8 the other day

6. why do Europeans drive on the opposite side of the car and the road, when the relation with road/driver orientation is exactly the same

7. how are there snythetic versions of illegal drugs made by seemingly "legal" companies when the very drug they are "synthesizing" is illegal. (were talking oxycoton here kids)

8. why is taking ecstacy considered "rolling"

9. WHy does our generation continue to abbreviate everything. First it started with lol, now it has infiltrated to previous generations as the accepted norms. Case and point: THe other day, while trying to aquire ciggarettes, so i say "can i have a pack of marlboros" the then 80-year old cashier procliams, "get with it there called marbs" I retorted, "no, you see i dont play around with all these bullshit abbreviations of words and all types of mishcievious slander that the rest of my generation takes part in. I mean whats to stop me from calling them M27's, then when im really trying to get a pack of ciggarettes you think im trying to persuade you to give me ammunition,"

Zach De La Rocha, come back dude

Cant take our mind, ask me, and ill hop the fuck out the line
who knows the answer to the question think inside the box or you catch detention
Later in life they track your ass down, catch you exploring and then hunt you. all the way. the. fuck. down.

uhhhh

Give me back my shit
Get these cuffs off my wrist

Just cause I dont live a simple life in a quiet town why you gotta come through and put my ass down?

unnecessary but i guess thats the name of your game,
it takes a real man these days to stand up and complain,
watch the rain, or rather watch out cause itll burn you up
just like they burned our books, then our records, now what?

Women

Walking...strutting rather. Laden in their boots and skinny jeans
whose to say theres an end to all their treacherous means?
Women, their so beautiful; but confusion rungs amuck
the chaos inside causes the opposite to thrive
Evil darlings, so sweet and pretty
my fellow man fear not and please, please do not pity
Emotional and Just, we are just the opposite, and filled with lust.

A little Jingle For All You New Age Janglers

A lady, somewhere stuck in someplace once told me I am a futuristic White Knight, my answer concealed in the depths of my imagination (the 4th dimension) was as follows:


white with passion and envy furious in a land forsaken by economics, the cursed and cruel religion of the money hungry war mongers. We need not partake in violent and bloody conquest, tis the ways of the past, Our countries entwined in a clusterfuck of multi-national corporations assert there economic prowess throughout the Earth and use money as bullets supressing the weak and poor governments, creating poverty and despair throughout a land once untouched from the cowardice of money.
