Over and over and over, I keep trying to comprehend----what the HELL are they all afraid of...Looked you up to see if you had a journal, based on your DU name. I'm a musician who has probably played blues more than anything else (and grew up , sort of, in Chicago), even though you can see that I'm a Springsteen and Marley fan too. Anyway, read your only entry (that was visible anyway) and I hope you're doing better (it was from a year ago). Hard to not let it all get you down, I'm prone to that hopeless feeling too, but then I remember they WANT us to give up and let them run roughshod over everything that was decent about America, and I find another tiny bit of fight still left in me, just to not give the bastards the satisfaction of defeating me.
