o i thought there were only a couple of days left but then i know it takes time to get all the votes in.... i can't wait to know now. It completely amazes me to think than these mormons in texas will have to do with a black prez!!!! well done, they're gonna go crazy. but i think that if Obama is elected, he's gonna have to watch his back pretty much constently cuz i can see some Coloured kennedy in him just right now, you know.... Angry Texans ain't nuffin' to fuck wiv'.

The presidential election itself is tomorrow, November 4th.

i'm not going to put down any of my music hereos because that would be a little cliched on a music board.

my number 1 hero is my mom and she will always be (i don't care if that's cliched or not).

here's another one.

I should also have put Sun Ra. I don't have the equivalent to his dedication to music for anything, but I admire it to no end. And his theatrics and personal myth creation are just phenomenal.

All my heroes are dead

Richard P. Feynman, physicist/author/all around bad-ass

Kurt Vonnegut, author/curmudgeon/pessimist

Hunter S Thompson, author/journalist/avid football lover

Pablo Picasso, artist/bad-ass

fuck yeah

My "heroes," or role models, are all people in my life, so putting them here would be pointless, since you don't know any of them.

But musically, it comes down to a battle royale between these two fellas:

Bertrand · 11.04.2008, 03:00 PM

People running the Cimade; it's a French association, dedicating itself to helping foreigners in France. They've got a lot to do to fight the government desire to kick out everyone who won't look French - the French minister for immigration AND national identity built up a congress about immigration in Vichy (where Pétain ran France when the nation lost to the Third Reich, licking Hitler's boots).
The Cimade started during WWII and provided help to the persecuted.

I'd add Denis Robert. He's a French journalist living in Metz, where Santa Claus comes and visits him every year. He wrote about money laundering and has had problems ever since - he's been sued over and over til he said he wouldn't talk about that anymore.
