First of all I would like to apologize to Luke for any scathing comments made earlier concerning the 3rd Conference and the aftermath. He gathered what information he could and I guess he must have felt that my input would not fit into his overall needs.
With that said, there may be others who also want to do their own documentary on the Straight Experience, and they may also want to seek out testimonials and interviews with those willing to do so. I want to state right now that I am all for helping out in a grass-roots effort of local Tampa Bay area folks in doing our own project. What I DO NOT want to see happen is another one of those MY DICK IS BIGGER THAN YOUR DICK type of fiasco's that filled this forum with alot of back-biting and in-fighting back in the days of the ISAC/SafetyNet stylings. I plan on making this blog thing happen, but it is like teaching Arnold Schwartzenegger how to crochet babie booties at this time for me. I hate the holidays and since they are upon us, I have ample time to do this blog thing right. I plan to simply do a site that depicts what it was like for us as teens to be yanked from our world as a teen, take part in a twisted behavioral reform program that was engineered by power-mad control freaks who turned it into a huge money making enterprise that never really solved a goddamn thing in my community.
Those that want to take part are welcome to do so.
I am and will always be the 85 Day Jerk. As a jerk I spent most of my time simply observing the inner goings of the Straight Machine as it existed in the Milton Roy, Morgan Yacht, and later only after securing the blessings of the Reagan Administration, the exhalted Gandy Blvd. Facility which was built on the money of all those who came before, but were rudely excluded from using. I was told that the damn building cost somewhere in the neighborhood of 7.5 Million Dollars, which included 3.7 acres them twisted bastards never even got the chance to build on and utilize. I did notice the last time I went to this building to turn in a Cable Box and Computer Modem while it was still Verizon, that the back and side parking lots had been enlarged quite a bit. That land was supposed to house a Community Room for parents and 7 steppers, 2 tennis courts, and an honest to god swimming pool.
That never happened because instead, the powers that be decided it was more important to spread the poison on a national level.
But regardless of what I have to say on the matter of any and all efforts to make any type of Straight Documentary..........you are either for it, or you are not. If you are not, why don't you go to that sick ass Kennedy Assasination Video Game site and see how you score, cuz we don't need your durision here.
