Tonight I Will Watch PBS Frontline's The Dark Side (Taped). What About You
What is everyone watching tonight to protest ABC's lies, deceptions, and its gross revision of history?

I am watching PBS Frontline's The Dark Side. I taped it a few weeks ago when it first aired. As opposed to Path to 9/11, it speaks the TRUTH about 9/11 and how we entered into the Iraq war.

2. Going to a local establishment to catch a Blues guitar player
and a damn good one at that. The Blues Society to which I belong is having an appreciation party for members and volunteers so I'm going there instead of TV.

7. Michael Burks is his name
Edited on Sun Sep-10-06 11:19 AM by Bluzmann57
and Blueport Junction is the name of the establishment. It is located on Highway 61 and I-280 in Davenport, IA. Michael starts at 5:00 and admission is $7.00 for non members and non volunteers. Burks is a good guitar player. I've seen him twice, but never in a setting like this one. It oughta be a good one.
on edit- I see by your profile that you are in Arizona so it may be impossible for you to make it. That's too bad. I'm sure he'll be there sooner or later though. Cold weather is coming to Iowa soon and musicians seem to gravitate toward warm climates in winter. Damn sissies. Lol.

5. I downloaded 9/11 Press For Truth last night and will be watching it
tonight. It just premired last Thursday.

The Story:
http://www.911pressfortruth.com/story

We felt the country was at risk from terrorists and from incompetence…and maybe worse.” —Lorie Van Auken, September 11th Widow

Following the attacks of September 11th, a small group of grieving families waged a tenacious battle against those who sought to bury the truth about the event—including, to their amazement, President Bush. In ‘9/11 PRESS FOR TRUTH’, six of them, including three of the famous “Jersey Girls”, tell for the first time the powerful story of how they took on the greatest powers in Washington—and won!—compelling an investigation, only to subsequently watch the 9/11 Commission fail in answering most of their questions.

Adapting Paul Thompson’s definitive Complete 9/11 Timeline (published by HarperCollins as ‘The Terror Timeline’), the filmmakers collaborate with documentary veterans Globalvision (‘WMD: Weapons of Mass Deception’, ‘Beyond JFK’) to stitch together rare overlooked news clips, buried stories, and government press conferences, revealing a pattern of official lies, deception and spin. As a result, a very different picture of 9/11 emerges, one that raises new and more pressing questions.

What actions were taken by top government officials who received dozens of specific warnings before the attack? Was Osama Bin Laden and his top al Qaeda leadership allowed to escape U.S. forces in Afghanistan? And what has been the reason for the deliberate obscuring of evidence for state sponsorship? Perhaps the most important one of all: Why, five years later, are so many of the families’ questions still unanswered?



You can get it free from google video here.

8. "Young Frankenstein" on Fox Movie Channel
That's a wonderful movie. I may watch it for the umpteenth time or I may stream BBC 3 while I attend to some work I've been neglecting.

20. I may watch V for Vendetta again too.
It's a gloomy, rainy day here and maybe I'll crank up the front projector and watch V again on the big screen. I love that movie.

27. Just finished V
That was a fucking kick ass film.

BTW isn't it time we start boycotting local ABC affiliate sponsors until they pull advertising.
The Boston museum of science is a 'media partner'. You know I think I will miss it.
