so this weekend was just another example of how if we really wanted to stop the madness and refuse to participate in this mess of a sham called democracy it is possible and it could be, dare i say it?--even fun.
my vision for a revolution is for a weekend long sit down, stop work, bbq party with music and dancing and eating and socializing, a be-yourself or whoever you would like to be...maybe even a costume revolution in full disguise and fun wigs? why not? who says revolution has to be serious? why couldn't it be a hazy smoky lovefest? a 25 bottle of beer on the wall game of quarters with everyone on the block refusing to go out to buy *%it, or drive to work, or generally refuse to create or exchange income? i think if we can not shop on xmas (pretty much, right?) why not use that self restraint and organizing skills to stop the Kist machine and make it take notice to the big sitdown and drop out. just a nagging thought.

I agree with you, "Who says social change cannot be fun?"
Trying to instill this mind set with a rather serious group of progressive activists these days.
