(Also, I need to key into my non-computer connected life while I'm at it, truth be told! lol) Anyway, thanks to Wikipedia for whiling away my time entertainingly and helping me feel like I was doing something of Great Importance To Humanity lol! with my modest little keyboard's clackings for awhile.

a while.
No, I think it's
awhile.

For going above and beyond the call of duty to support the article on the older half-brother of Barack Obama (whatever his name might be!) and standing strong against the argument to delete that article. Whether it's kept on this round, or deleted, your efforts are noble.--

- Just wanted to say I consider
this edit
very sound- I think the article is a lot better off with the video still as its lead, and certainly without the portrait. Also-

Though we didn't (and maybe still don't) agree, it's refreshing to see some careful and well thought-out arguments at FFD, rather than the usual "I like it" and "it looks nice".

Lyrics to "Allelujah"
by Leornard Cohen
1. Now I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this he fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
2. Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew her
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
3. You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did, well, really, what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light in every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
4. I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I learned to touch
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my lips but Hallelujah
---[Leonard Cohen
]:
This mad period started with Various Positions. I remember writing this song "Hallelujah"; I filled two notebooks with the song, and I remember being on the floor of the Royalton Hotel, on the carpet in my underwear, banging my head on the floor and saying, "I can't finish this song." After I wrote the one version [for Various Positions], 1 wrote another lyric which I'm doing now, which goes like this:
Baby, I've been here before.
I know this room, I've walked this floor.
I used to live alone before I knew you.
I've seen your flag on the marble arch,
But love is not some kind of victory march,
No it's a cold and it's a very broken Hallelujah.
There was a time you let me know
What's really going on below,
but now you never show it to me, do you?
I remember when I moved in you,
And the holy dove was moving too,
and every breath we drew was Hallelujah.
Now maybe there's a God above,
As for me, all I ever learned from love
Is how to shoot at someone who outdrew you.
and it's no complaint you hear tonight,
and It's not some pilgrim who's seen the light
it's a cold and it's a very lonely Hallelujah.
[--That was the prototype of the defeat. --Cohen.]
(Variations on the Last Verse)
Maybe there's a God above,
But all I ever learned from love
Is how to shoot somebody who outdrew you.
It's not a cry that you at night
It's not somebody who has seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah.
Now maybe there's a God above,
But all I ever learned from love
Is how to shoot at someone who outdrew you.
But it's not a cry that you hear tonight
And it's not some gleeful laughter
From somebody who says he has seen the light,
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah.
Now maybe there's a God above,
As for me, all I ever learned from love
Is how to shoot at someone who outdrew you.
But it's not a cry that you hear tonight
It's not some gleeful christian who has seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Only so much code will fit on a user page. But it's still quite a bit. Fact is, the best writing is rewriting, so if I keep at it maybe just maybe I'll get something interesting written about my life and on to my user page that way. That is, through much rewriting.

In the past, I have called myself an "anarchist", "decentralist leftist", "small l libertarian", "reactionary radical (to take a term from Bill Kauffman)", "paleo-liberal", "extreme localist", "Old Right individualist" and probably a number of other things I am forgetting. I have never repudiated any of these other terms and in fact I believe that they all basically mean the same thing.
