First day at the Illustrious College of Dreams.

So, ive just started school at the (at least) accredited Kingsborough Community College, and, boy, was it crowded. The walls of the halls moved with the vitality of New York City's best and brightest students. In fact, I think I heard a few smart comments through out the day. One of my professors indicated he was being indicted for [something... he was grumbling]. Immediately following this uplifting comment, he proclaimed he was cutting the class short (by 45 minutes) to drive 80 miles in 90 minutes. IN BROOKLYN.

Additionally, and more positivly, I have a really amazing professor for a government class. This man claims to have lived through the great depression (and I belive him, as he's ancient.) On top of that, he seems to hold very liberal beliefs as he spent an hour bashing the bush administration's policies on everything from the war to social security with a compelling accuracy. This man is everything I want to grow up to be, especially because he wears a bow-tie.

The last class of the day was less noteworthy. The instructor just an old emo kid. He spent the entire period making self deprecating comments, telling us how unqualified he was to teach the class, and complaining about the head of the department. Alas, what can we expect of a burnt-out english major?

Essay updates soon, but i have to have them to start (uberbrodt should send me some!)(and finish gooaoo's site). If you have any essays about anything pertinent to the current economic or political "state of the union", send them to me at micheal_at_themultitude_dot_net with your editing (or not) requests, and ill put them up.

From fear through the eyes of madness, I'm making my way back home.

themultitude.net is official(ly something...)

Some funny feeling rushes over me when i think about how much trouble everyone goes through just to make sure everything is in the right place. --

Welcome to themultitude.net. Although just now coming to life, the multitude's existance spans back about six years or so, when Micheal Hardt and Antonio Negri released an epic geneology titled EMPIRE. Thats it, just EMPIRE. An incredible scope of European hystory reaching back to colonial america, Hardt and Negri assert the solution to the belligerence of capitalism lies immediately under our feet. I wont give away the ending, so go and get it from your local library. Soon, this namespace will be filled to Server[`]'s capacity with essays relative to the subject matter. But for now, as it was created just moments ago, this is all there is.

go back and catch a 30 second flash visual.
