Brief Hirstory of Czeck Anarchism...

Speakin' of hirstory,can you imagine the Pilgrims coming to America today?
Good luck getting that big belt buckle through security.
The federal authorities announced they have now cracked the nation's
largest case of identity theft, involving the credit history of over 30,000
victims. They said it would have been a lot more victims but thankfully,
the Bush economic plan wiped out most people's savings already.
Actually, what first got authorities suspicious is that the clothes were
being charged to Winona Ryder's credit card.
The folks at Enron announced they're going to be selling off a fleet of
cars and SUV's used by Enron executives. And we thought Enron was sleazy
before, now they're used car salesmen too.
I'm reminded of Abbie Hoffman when anarchists hurl teddybears at the
cops, like they did in Ottawa. I'm reminded of Abbie Hoffman when a
schoolgirl slaps the Prince of Wales with a flower, as happened in Latvia.
I am reminded of Abbie Hoffman when Palestinian artists put a replica
Statue of Liberty on top of Arafat's Ramallah headquarters, destroyed
courtesy US tax dollars -- or better yet, when an antiglobalist decapitates
Thatcher's statue with a cricket bat in a London art museum. I'm reminded
of Abbie Hoffman when the National Bolsheviks throw tomatoes at the chief
of NATO, as happened in Prague. I'm reminded of Abbie Hoffman when some
troublemakers in Victoria turn Buy Nothing Day into Steal Something Day --
ah, that sort of hands-on activism is classic Abbie (which shows the
materialist roots of his intuitive socialism). I am reminded of Abbie
Hoffman each and every time I see some unhinged (anti-)hero risk her or his
(often privileged) neck to act out against all the TOTAL BULLSHIT the
capitalist war monarchy (aka the 'Pig Nation') has the audacity to do in
the name of freedom [snort] and democracy [honk]. Revolution for the hell
of it,yeah!
Honor Abbie and rip off a capitalist today!

Face Off.
Face transplants will be surgically possible within the next six to nine
months, but a leading plastic surgeon in the United Kingdom is calling for
an ethical and moral debate before anyone undergoes the procedure.
Peter Butler, a consultant plastic surgeon at London's Royal Free Hospital,
said the surgery could benefit people who've been seriously disfigured by
cancer, burns, or accidents. But, he added, the issue is not merely, "'Can
we do it?' but 'Should we do it?'"
The British Association of Plastic Surgeons will discuss the microsurgical
procedure at its next meeting.
Finding donors tricky
Butler said he plans to complete his research before asking permission to
carry out a face transplant at his hospital.
But surgeons could have trouble finding enough willing donors. Butler said
his survey of doctors, nurses and members of the public showed most would
accept a face transplant but few were willing to donate their own after dying.
Resembling the donor
Butler said one of the possible techniques would see an envelope of fat,
skin and blood vessels transplanted onto existing bone, leaving patients
with many of their own features.
But another more complex procedure would transplant underlying bone as
well, so the patient would end up resembling the donor.
A policeman,Nic Conte has volunteered to have the face of a criminal
terrorist swapped with his so as to find out more about an alleged bomb plot.
