Thoughts for Thanksgiving from William S. Burroughs

Oh, and thanks for RIAA and the MPAA and their war against Fair Use; Thanks for this Administration, the DHS, TSA and the rest of the fear-mongering horde, striving to turn this country into one filled with paranoid patriots, willing at the slightest hint to turn in their friends, neighbors and family who refuse to accept Newspeak; Thanks to Congress for its lemming-like willingness to abandon hundreds of years of juris prudence and overturn habeas corpus (though there remains hope that the S.Ct. will treat this abomination as it should...time will tell); Thanks to all who are so willing to fear...but refuse to try to understand...and so on.

On the other hand, Thanks for my boys, good books and those who appreciate the theatre-of-the-absurd quality of life. It could, sadly, be worse. Happy Thanksgiving...
