my new favourites......
Who would have believed?
Obsessed with jazz in the last six weeks ...... Chick Webb, Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Count Basie, Duke Ellington, ........ I really do like Swing music (DANSE DANSE DANSE!!!!!), and the bebop that followed ......
Obsessed with Indian food in the last two months .... Fierce place on north side of Devon but way east of the area where its massive amounts of Indians, Pakistani , Hasidim Jews, middle Easterners, etc etc etc - it's close to Damen. I'd crashed @ jakoffs, and it was a Friday morning and I was dead hungry. I wanted to walk from Jakovvs to the main Hasidim area on Devon just to soak up the eclectic neighbourhood - and soptted the "99 cent veggie sandwich" sign on Ghareeb Nawaz. Now, because of frendship of 25years w. Jackson, I have eaten and really enjoyed Indian food - but the deliciousness of this food just massacred me. So fucking tasty, so cheap - and nice that i dont HAVE to eat meat. 24h open, and the people who eat there are mainly Indians, so as bad at food critism as I am, i know the place is good beyond just my taste and bankaccount.
I love the place.

Chomsky: Well, representative democracy, as, say, in the United States and Great Britian, would be criticized by an anarchist of this school (Anarcho-Syndicalism) on two grounds. First of all, because there is a monopoly of power centralized in the state and secondly, and critically, because representative democracy is limited to the political sphere and in no way, in any serious way, encroaches on the economic sphere. And anarchist of this tradition (Anarcho-Syndicalism) who always held that democratic control of one's productive life is at the core of any serious human liberation or, for that matter, any SIGNIFICANT DEMOCRATIC PRACTICE. That is, as long as individuals are compelled to rent on the market to those who are willing to hire them, as long as their role in production is simply that of ancillary tools, then, there are striking elements of coercion and opression that make talk of democracy very limited, if even meaningful.
