Heroes
some of my sheroes and heroes are: Dorothy Day & St. Francis for their renunciation of privilege; Nelson Mandela and Ceasar Chavez for their hope and tenacity; Jane Goodall & Marc Beckoff for their expressions of care and communion between human and non-human animals; Molly Ivins, Anne Lamott & Noam Chomsky for their truth-telling; Mother Teresa and Albert Einstein for not giving up when they were deemed failures; Oscar Romero and Dennis Kucinich for standing up to power and insisting upon justice, my greatest teacher is my 16 1/2 year old heeler FORD, and then of course my best friend Nancy!
About me: After a decade in the film business, and spending 5 years on a 3 year master's degree- together with my 16 1/2 year old certified miracle Blue Heeler "FORD", we co-founded Bark for Peace!
IT and Myspace skills notwithstanding, our treats are the very best vegan, organic, 100% human-grade, allergen-free treats you can EAT WITH YOUR DOG on the planet, period! AND they're in 100% biodegradable/compostable packaging!!! We use 100% PCW recycled cardstock labels printed in a wind-powered facility and we carbon offset all shipping and delivery with Native Energy!

SPAMED! Can you ever forgive me? If so, please vote for me!
I am in Round Two of The TRCoA Unsigned Artist Competition. Help me get to Round Three by clicking my face and voting for me!
If I’m in the top 4 I get to play a showcase for record executives and could win 100 free hours in the studio.
If I were selected, it would really help me rock some faces off, please take a second and vote.
Thanks!

Hi ! I hope all is well and you have a great birthday! Here's something from me to you... These are links to songs you can download, recordings of mine not available to the public. I hope you enjoy them! Happy Birthday!
May I borrow some of YourSpace to promote MyCdRelease?
The all new, all original CRUELTY arrives Tuesday, July 29, and I'll celebrate with a show at Austin's legendary Cactus Cafe. It's free, aside from the $15 you'll certainly want to spend on the CD. Raina Rose opens at 8:30 pm, then Southpaw Jones performs in his finest suit, and nothing will ever be the same.
From one friend of Howard Zinn to another — thanks for adding me. ¶ People hear only what they want, so facts alone won't wake them; they need inspiration too. ¶ This world's evils have a common root: Bullies, liars, thieves, & murderers — whether in school, home, government, or elsewhere — believe we're all separate, motivated only by self-interest, by greed & fear. They want us to share that belief; they use it to justify themselves and to discourage us from uniting. They use it to shape the world's political & economic systems that perpetuate war & poverty. Their real power comes not so much from secret conspiracies as from propaganda that we all hear every day and that we hardly notice. ¶ But you & I have found something better inside ourselves & our friends. It's in everyone, if we can just wake them; we're all one flesh & blood. Let's spread that vision, for until we do our other advances will be minor & temporary. ¶ The outcome of the ideological struggle is not yet determined, so no one can afford to be just a spectator. Join the movement, if you haven't already: get involved in whatever way feels right for you. Question authority. Keep fighting, loving, hoping, singing. Hand in hand, we may still be able to heal this world. ¶ I'm impressed with ideas of Lakoff & Waldman about *how* to spread the vision, so I'm trying to promote their ideas via comments like this one and the essay on my MySpace page. It's free (I'm not selling anything). ¶ The real war is between classes, not nations; so I'll picnic on July 14, not July 4. CLOSE GUANTANAMO BY BASTILLE DAY; PASS IT ON. ¶ Peace, love, hope, and revolution — Eric
