I was on 76th and 2nd ave when it happened, but nobody there was even mentioning it. My good friend from back home called me and told me about it. It totally fucked up my evening because the trains back to the hostel I'm staying at stopped running. booooo! Hisssss!!! Drunk!!

i think you're very right! Americans are extremely sadomasochistic when it comes to all things "terror."

val-holla-ing 07.20.2007 12:17 AM

also, everyneurotic, we should get drinks before either of us leaves town.

You ever feel you've got something to say, Sway, but you're just not saying it? Even though you post words...

Everyneurotic 07.20.2007 09:45 AM

i think it excites them.

i think its fucked up, but it seems true.

as absurd as it sounds, there's probably an ounce of truth in that.
the government would have sure loved it to have been a terror attack as well...

Well the Situationists said something along the lines that society would get so boring that they only stimulation left would be to destroy it, I think they hoped for revolution but I think all we get is narcissistic anger, and the resulting apocalypse movies and pseudo-religions.

That sounds about right, revolutions are a bore, destroying is better.

this is weird, check the original post date...apologies to Moshe though I think his govt is as out of control as ours and neither represent the citizens...as a disclaimer I just offer this as something weird, not that I'm asserting the truth of it (but its probably 100% accurate!)
