i think we are lucky to live these lives we lead. to be a part of the cultural, political and scientific conversation of our time, at and on any level; and be able to work one's way through life basically supporting oneself through their art. amazing! frustrating sometimes? yes. unfair sometimes...what isn't? not a religious person, but know we are blessed. that is why it is imperative that we speak up when we do see injustice. it is our responsibility for being so blessed. - joey alkes of dj monkey 3RD WORLD WAR
