Green Day
Sunday is of course yellow, so Monday is Green, Tuesday blue, Wednesday violet, Thursday red, Friday orange, Saturday whatever (white, black, grey?).
There's also Bruce Springsteen's Glory Days. Grateful Dead. Gray Davis. And Guns-Drugs.
God can be lots of things. G'day, mate. Gandolf, General Disarray, Genetic Drift, the Great Demon, Gadolinium, the Gangster's Disciples, General Dynamics, the Great Depression...
Game of Death, Good ol' days.
There's a Gods, God's Lake, and God's River in Canada. And a Ghod in India.
In South Korea, there's two G-D's: Gyeongsangbuk-do and Gyeongsangnam-do.

Begin Being
The same letters, for a reason
Startup you're godhood, I say, right away.
"Big up yo'self" as Ali G might say.
Too bad about the loveparade tragedy, in Germany.
They say it's cancelled, now.
Since God is love, start a godparade.

Pro and Con
God is for good: happiness, comfort, love
and
against bad: suffering, poverty, evil, war, ignorance, illness
Truth is good. Only God is good.
but, suppose:
There is no God. Therefore, there is no good. Everything is a lie.
how bout that.
om
First, identify what (factors) leads to happiness, and what leads to suffering; then cultivate and eliminate. That is the way, according to the dalai.

Ron Haviv
I just watched 'Ron Haviv: Freelance' on the Documentary Channel
He's a war photographer, a World Press Award winner.
It's SO sad what happens..
And what happened. In places like Somalia, Rwanda, Yugoslavia, Haiti, Vietnam, etc.
The main thing I took from the documentary is the description of what it's like for him to return to American society and how he feels like a misfit because of people complaining about relatively incredibly stupid problems, in a world full of gossip. I would add the obsession with celebrity culture is also incredibly retarded in the face of Reality with a capital R in which the most important topics are swept under the rug and forgotten.
A commentator in the movie says war photographers are compelled to return to these situations to find 'something', and will do so until they find it or they die, whichever comes first.
I already wrote about James Nachtway.
One of Ron Haviv's websites is http://www.photoarts.com/haviv/bloodandhoney/
I hate the military. I hate all of them. I hate war. I don't care if the US commands its forces under the title 'Department of Defense.' War is offensive, period. God is a man of war, but only the psy war against war in the first place. You dig?
To appreciate peace, it's unfortunate that we have to vicariously experience war through war photographers, who sometimes pay too high a price for their moral ventures.

MJ
Michael Jackson, Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan
I'm dating myself.
Anyway, now that a year has passed since the gloved one's passing, I thought I'd mention that he has a song called:
I am love
which, of course, should be mentioned in a blog like this.
