New World Notes

Both a blog and a weekly radio program. Each examines political & social issues from a Progressive perspective and with humor. The content includes my own commentary ... recorded talk by people who do this better than me ... stories from the alternative press read aloud ... graphics ... and music with a message.

Best advice: Before blindfolding & shooting your TV set (as Utah Phillips did), check local ordinances pertaining to firearms discharge in your neighborhood. Choose a backstop that will minimize ricochets, and always wear proper eye and ear protection.
