"The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it."

That's a great quote, but 'evil' is a matter of persepective. I'm sure Ahmadinejad wakes up every day thinking he is "doing something about it", and that the secularists in Iran are a bunch of pansies that won't do anything about it.

Alfred used to summer with friends in Watch Hill RI, near my hometown, Westerly. He would sail by himself without a lifejacket. He didn't know how to swim.

The evil that is out there is in plain site if you take the effort to look.

Pick up Niaomi Klein's latest book The Shock Doctrine.

That is what folks need to wake up to. Stop trusting " the market," stop following the need for a "war on terror," stop thinking we need to be "polite and respectful" in our rhetoric and complaints.

We need to all yell but only if we are informed.

You know what's evil? A Starbucks across the street from a PJ's on Maple Street. And I see people park in front of PJ's and walk across the street.

When the revolution comes, we're going to shave their heads and walk them through the streets so that the shame of their collaboration is visible to all.

Ray, underwear is also evil.

Evil is in the eye of the beholder.

For every one person who parks in front of PJ's to go to the Starbucks, 3 park in the starbucks lot at the old gas station and walk to PJ's. That store is doing great, I'm there at least once a week reading the paper with my dog (she just chills, she doesn't read the paper with me, in case any grammar nazi is out there).

When it comes to all matters PJ's, I humbly defer to Aaron.
