The conversation ring

Damn right.. I know of/may go to parties and festivals just about every weekend through the summer

Mostly underground and illegal raves, which are always fun.. nothing like seeing a dude walking around shouting 'acid! pills! ketamine! coke!' then three minutes later seeing a topless girl dancing like crazy. Fun times.

 

There was a great quote near the end of East of Eden where Lee is summing up Cal and Americans in general, and even though it's context is in 1917 I think it still rings totally true:

He said softly, "we're a violent people, Cal. Does it seem strange to you that I include myself? maybe it's true that we are all descended from the restless, the nervous, the criminals, the arguers and brawlers, but also the brave and independent and generous. If our ancestors had not been that, they would have stayed in their home plots in the other world and starved over the squeezed-out soil"
Lee went on, "That's why I include myself. We all have that heritage, no matter what old land our fathers left. All colors and blends of Americans have somewhat the same tendencies. It's a breed--selected out by accident. And so we're overbrave and overfearful--we're kind and cruel as children. We're overfriendly and at the same time frightened of strangers. We boast and are impressed. We're oversentimental and realistic. We are mundane and materialistic--and do you know of any other nation that acts for ideals? We eat too much. We have no taste, no sense of proportion. We throw our energy about like waste. In the old lands they say of us that we go from barbarism to decadence without an intervening culture. Can it be that our critics have not they key or the language of our culture? That's what we are, Cal--all of us. You aren't very different."

 

Goddamn. My nap extended longer than expected. now Ima be up all night.

 

god I fucking love steinbeck

 

CC, probably not quite as dramatic as television makes it out be. But America is a lot like American TV in a lot of ways, haha.

Um probably not.What you see on the news is ridiculous

i wish i was going to a bunch of festivals this summer they all seem real good but i dont have the money. im trying to go to the reading musikfest for a night when CSN plays and theirs a free weekend festival in lock haven pa that i went to last year and had a blast so hopefully go again and my friend and i were thinking about trying to go to either gathering of the vibes or all good...would really like to go to rothbury but i doubt ill be able to afford it, the other two are a little cheaper
