Patriots Day... it is in New England and I think it's OK. It's OK to love one's country. And I try to not worry about this  deepest urge to get out and say something, anything to really make a stand against this flood of idiocy and fear and greed... I know I know.. cool down boy. You'll be all right. Phew... I get pissed off sometimes. Well of course California is a mess, a disaster in the making, That's my humble opinion. I don't like over crowded. We have a Semi Arid to Arid climate mostly; We have our famous earthquake in the ready,  a lovely virtual island crowded to the gills ... keep pouring in here the developers and the man in the Green Tie welcomes you. California Cordwood we will stack you up.. in the event of emergencies please obey the armed men who will be rapidly on the scene to rescue you. I feel safe.  Come on Guy say something cheerful. My county that's a mess too. Same crap.. develop the hell out of it. Cut the trees dig up the hillsides. Property rights you know. Plus we have to make sure the low income people have a place to stay. You can't be against that Guy? What a grump. No I wouldn't move in if they asked. Poor Mill Valley. when do people wake up and say ... our landscape is part of our heritage, part of what we defend when we defend our Country.  This 90 year old WWII vet told me months back .... talking about his war 'We won the war and lost our country.'  Now in my county they have something in the lines of Homeland Security for cab drivers. The new drug testing program begins this week for me. It will cost me $286. for the year and then $100 annually. I get the full security check which is fine what the heck and the random drug test every year. Hey I don't need any medicinal Pot... no because I believe in a the power of a Natural High. . On the other hand maybe I do want to share a little herb with some friends or by myself once in a while. I know that stuff is illegal Guy! To be honest I am sick of the BS and as far as I am concerned it is a very obvious violation of my Constitutional Right, It is called an unreasonable search. I think my career change is finally facing me. One step above homelessness and if I continue to waste time writing letters to America I will never make the good transition to the good paying job I deserve and let my life be a lesson to all young people stay in college bare down, force yourself, because if you have anywhere close to a good brain as I once had then be a school teacher. What could be better? Not much.  Anyways I have been exhausted and getting old and am an expert in insomnia, loneliness (awwwh! po boy) and other debilitating issues of Life in the slow lane..     I am allright. Don't worry about me at all Thank You.  There will be the Peaceful Revolution it's still a mystery to me, but I have faith. I am trying to work on my movies and clean up my mess. To all my fellow rebels without a clue. Peace.        Guy W. Meyer, Jr.                   April 21, 2008         San Anselmo, California               guy@lifesignsphoto.com
