sitting in a car driving to the airport
we are on our way to bilbao spain where we are gonna play in front of
the guggenheim museum
i am looking forward to that
to be next to beautiful art and architecture
and to put some art of our own into the open air

george w bush should definitely be impeached
he is a liar
and his lies have bought misery to millions of people
and bought no good to anyone except for the corporate oil
billionaires who are making huge profits
they are profiting during wartime
that is unscrupulous and terribly sad
w bush has made the world a much less safe place
before the war iraq was not a place for terrorists
saddam hussein, brutal dictator that he was was secular and had
nothing to do with al queda
and was sanctioned to death and had no power outside of his country
now it is a breeding ground for terrorism and anti-americanism is at
an all time high all over the world
and the people of iraq are no better off at all
all those people want is for the americans to leave
decent families and people like you and i who never wanted america
there in the first place
goerge w bush has sent american soldiers over there to be maimed and
killed
only to serve his selfish oil company needs and for his ego
american soldiers who are loyal to each other and who only want to
have a good job get an education and support their country are being
used for an unjust cause
i support the troops
they, like all americans are being betrayed by george w bush
he has betrayed his country he should be impeached

the administration's line that they were over there because they
wanted to spread democracy and freedom
is nothing else besides a lie
if they had any interest at all in the well being of other human beings
they would be doing what they could for people who desperately need
and would love help in africa

i pray to god that george w bush and his administration does not
invade iran
it would be a bloodbath
why dont they just leave the iranians alone
and go through the united nations
and work on making the united nations as strong and as just as possible
an invasion of iran would be the worst possible thing that could happen
i pray to god that it does not happen

i am just another guy sitting in the car on the english motorway

As the date for "Stadium Arcadium" draws near, you will probably see more and more posts about my favorite band in the whole wide world, the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

You see, Anthony Kiedis, Flea and the whole band are my personal heroes. Flea has the biggest heart in the whole wide world, and his love for Clara radiates from him. He is multi-talented, having been in movies and his bass skills are beyond comparison. There isn't a better bass player in all of rockdom. Anthony made it past heroin addiction and the whole band saved John Frusciante's life; he was addicted too. They made it through so much pain and heartache, losing their first guitarist, Hillel Slovak, to heroin overdose. Their music has been growing in leaps and bounds and to just watch them perform makes my heart leap and flutter in joy and rapture.

Their creativity has no bounds and their videos make me laugh and cry. They are not afraid of anything and explode with energy. There is no one like them in the entire world. I love them to pieces. If I do nothing else in life, I want to meet this band and tell them how much they mean to me. I haven't said that about any other band.

And in spite of some people under the age of 30 (poke poke jab jab), all of the band members except John are over 40 and still are absolutely AMAZING on stage and off.

I strive to be like them in every aspect of my life. Completely honest, forthright, and able to face and conquer my fears, no matter what may happen in my life.
