Dispatches from Gilead

Last year I created a collage of photos and newspaper clippings. I bound the pages in a large book and continue to add new entries when I can.

This time-capsule began as a way to document the social-political turmoil of Bush World. In my view, our society is at the beginning of a downfall. I am not sure how far down we will go, but I am prepared for the worst. This time-capsule will serve to document the commencement of our dissension into the gaping mouth of hell.

I have digitally scanned some pages from my book and present them here for your viewing. Please click on the images to get a larger view.

The collages look great, nice work. Sort of reminds me of the way the Daily Show folks take bits from the visual media to put together a truer story in parody than what is presented by the media.

You're a very brave man...Every now and then I ask myself: I gave up drugs and alcohol for this?

Haven't forgotten about the Book-Meme...my brain is just overtaxed with reality.

Here's the thing m'friends. Read the artical entitled '3 negative views of Americans'. It's a bit small for me to make out the body, but Take it from me, you do not help yourself. For your own sakes, put your guns up, nominate a real candidate for the UN and stop shooting A-Rabs. We'll even let you keep your god if you do those things...

Actualy, in all serriousnes, how a nation can go from the most popular and silver looking to the current state of in which you find yourself, in as little as 50 years is worth thought. I cannot imagine it is merely better media reporting faults which always existed.

I fear we must conclude that America's reputation has suffered because, unfortunately, Americans have become worse.

I don't like saying it, but then, I don't suppose Agitprop liked saying his sosiety was at the beggining of a downfall, I think we are both right though.
