Dear Germans, dear German Citizens, Males, Females, Kids and everyone inbetween,
a friend of mine asked me these days: "What should I do? This country and its society is nothing more than a caricature of itself. In The Seventies, especially when Willy Brand was chancellor, didn´t we know how it should be? We did. Where have this all gone?"
I was touched, even though I am not busy to make the world a better place by political means.I thought about it and here is my advice to all of you.
Please have a good look at history and do not repeat very silly mistakes.
Please do not show any tolerance for those who exploit you, who do not support your civil rights and who lie to you. Find out about the many legal and peaceful options to stop that, altogether. Please use the internet to get informed on what is going on and google twice a day to find out about what your government does and how democracy defines. Understand that politicians are well trained to ignore your individuality. Stop that.
Write Emails to the government twice a day and call your representative once a day- all of you. Get fucking professional with the computer, or you will be a dead duck before you can say: freedom.
Publish your opinion in your blog for more than just sell an idiotic t-shirt or moronic horror stories or lunatic games or your opinion about Karl Heinz who looks at you the way you know how or the beautiful all inclusive bullshit vacancies on an mediterranean waste dump. Grow up.
A Blog is how you break the elite´s public opinion monopoly and make them respect your rights, your wishes and accept your will. If you cannot write or read, because you are blind or just a dumbass, make friends with somebody who can read and write. Life can be beautiful, even if you go by the name of Ronald Pofalla.
Do not sent state employees to the parliament, do not accept judges as legislative representatives. Do not allow the fusion of the three powers this way or any way.
Do not elect people who spend your taxes on war and arms. Do not take part in a war abroad. No reasonable constitution does allow such idiotic enterprises. No war deals with civilisation or peace. It deals with you and your killing of fellow humans, and getting killed by them. Imagine a young soldier, dying crying like a fucking animal, face down in the mud, and bloodstained. They buried him ten thousand miles away from home, and he did not even have the chance to begin a life of his own. He died for nothing which is essential for people´s welfare, he died for the greed of an insane elite who would never invite him to their home or even speak with him.This is what war is about, for all of you, if you are not in high places of command, understand?
You cannot kill for peace, and you cannot fuck for virginity.
You are not an animal and you are not a troglodyte, even if your wife may say so some times. Do not accept newspaper articles or tv features which frighten you. They are made to silence and shrink your personality and positive fantasy, your talent and freedom of thinking. They are made to make you feel bad and humble. They are giving you a picture of a dangerous world outside your cage, which is a downright lie. This prepares you for being manipulated and used by those who know well how to do that.
Do not elect people who hinder a good health care, retirement policy and education system, free for all. Do not believe that this is impossible.
Do not tolerate politicians who are dependent on the support of corporations or their institutions or even are being paid by these corporations.
Believe in Santa Claus or The Easter Rabbit, but not in your silly hope that the state´s horrible debts and the economy´s unemployment rate will change due to current politicians activities. They have caused both to trap you, so please do not reelect them. In case you do, they will trap you more to make you a slave. You and your children. They would love to. They are only human, and not the brightest ones. Have you ever thought about why somebody thinks he needs political or economical power? Think.
In case you do not see a chance to change things, do like I did. Emigrate. And keep talking like I do here.
So get fucking wise, please, even if you are one of these rare christian democrats who are intelligent enough to understand the situation and its upcoming implications. Because God is only going to help those who are going to help themselves. The bible, the history and most common sense says sheep are just being sacrificed. They are being eaten by their masters.
So please. Let us move on stairways to heaven again and do not continue to walk the highway to hell.
In case I can see some serious activities that indicate a growing common sense for activities I have written here about, I will come back, together with hundreds of thousands of well experienced and well educated emigrants from all over the world, ready and willing to help reanimating German democracy.

Drawing the Female Body
There are not much fields of art which match the delicacy of drawing female shapes. This is how we understand about the ultimate rhythm of inverse curves. And it is FUN!
1) Begin with staring at your model the dumbest way you can. This will make her smile.
Now, rearrange your features and try to understand what you see, - try to fall in love with this composition of vivid shapes.It should not be difficult to develop some involvement. :D
2) Always remember that you are drawing a living, feeling human being. The draft should show, how she feels, even what she thinks, and more:what do you feel about her? Avoid a sterile approach. You are not a medical doctor anxious of losing distance. Communicate with your model.
3) And now, without molesting a beautiful woman, you begin to love her by visualizing her divine proportions. Give a damn for the contemporary hype about a certain type of beauty. Just find your way to express her special beauty. Feel this incredibly humanizing force. And don´t point at her with thumbs, weird hand poses and pencils like a moron. Close your eyes, use your creative mind and imagine the guiding lines for axes, perspective and basic shape/proportions that are appropriate. This is a mindgame. Nothing less or more!
4) You got to imagine her drawn picture, first! Then you put down the axis, basic shapes and the rest you have seen, on your medium: paper, tableau, canvas. You should finetune this in a second session by watching and transmitting her special details.
5) There will be a point when you are so familiar with your motive that drawing it feels like something flows through you on to the surface. Look out for that. That is called inspiration and that is the only drug we´ll ever need. By the way, do not stop until she and you, both, like the result.
All this might need some time, you may say. You are right. This is where we share the boys/girls from the men/ladies, because there is no one living long enough to learn how to do this perfectly, see?
But... let´s try hard.

Why love songs should be played on guitars
Daphne was an independent-minded, love- and marriage-hating young huntress, a follower of Artemis (Diana). Her father, the river god Peneus, wished her to marry and have children, but all Daphne that wanted was to hunt alone in the deep woods, rejoicing in her freedom.
One day Apollo saw her. She was hunting, her dress short to the knee, her arms bare, her hair in disarray. She was enchantingly beautiful and Apollo thought, "She is lovely now, but what would she look like properly dressed with her hair nicely arranged." The idea inflamed him, and he started running after the nymph. Daphne fled, and she was an excellent runner. Apollo was hard put to overtake her, although he grew steadily closer. He cried out, "Do not fear, stop and find out who I am. I am no rude rustic or shepherd but the Lord of Delphi, and I love you!" But Daphne flew on, even more frightened than before. She knew she could never outrun Apollo, but she was determined to resist to the end. She could almost feel Apollo's breath on the back of her neck when she saw her father's river ahead of her. She screamed to him, "Help me father, help me." At these words a dragging numbness came over her, and her feet seemed rooted in the earth. Bark was enclosing her body, and leaves were sprouting from her arms. She had been changed into a laurel tree.
Apollo sadly watched the transformation as he held her in his arms. "Oh, lovely tree," he mourned, "you will always be mine. I will give you the gift of eternal life. Your leaves will always be green and victors will wear your leaves as wreathes upon their brows."
Apollo took a limb from one of her branches and made a musical instrument, the guitar.
That is why love songs should be played on guitars, especially those which are sad.
Just listen to this.

Twelve-year-old Chuck Early of Huntington Beach, California, remembers that his mom was sitting with a group of people playing guitar and just having fun. “She called me over to hug some lady, but I was a little embarrassed; she wasn’t wearing a shirt. Mom said it was ok, so I did. Much to my surprise, I had her muddy breast prints on my t-shirt, and all I knew was that I didn’t like the way it looked. I went straight to the first mud puddle I could find to get dirtier and cover it up. I really wasn’t much into girls yet, so that’s why I reacted the way I did. I wish I knew what I had. Janis Joplin’s boobs on my chest!”
RIP, Pearl. I am sure, you are the only angel who can sing hallelujah and it sounds like the blues.

A Global Language
Lots of us got fantasy to imagine stories and things. Some just tell it,some try to write it down, some try to visualize them, some go and put their imaginations into music by expressing them with singing and playing. Some, like Mrs. M.´s naughty little boy, use each and every way.
Now, for tonight, here are some hints how to visualize with a piece of paper and a pencil. It is the best way to put´em out of your mind.
Jump outa your seat for a piece of nice white paper and a pencil.
So, start by accepting that drawing is nothing but looking at your interior worlds and all it contains, and try to understand it first in terms of a middle axis, its proportion and its basic shape.Sounds boring? Don´t argue, try it.
So the first row gives you the basic shapes itself. Now you got to decide which basic shapes you use to show the structure of something you want to draw.That may lead to the second row: still all of this are mere lines and basic shapes, as you can see.
The third rope gives you an impression how to understand the third dimension- it is a trick, because we do not have a real third dimension on the paper.So we use axis and shortening. The fourth row already leads you to understand shapes that can come alive. Find out about your basic shapes in the mirror.
This can change your life.
From now on you can visualize your inner world, directly.Even show it to somebody. No need for verbal packages any more.In case the words don´t come easily.
So far for today,
Have fun!
