Pan American Rebel Scum

Welcome to the show that sounds like LCD Soundsystem as the sound track of Star Wars.

Brazil is America's big sibling in South America. Americans have a healthy rebel streak. But perhaps we only have juke box rebellion. Packaged by evil branding executives. Thanks to bill for pointing me out to these magnetic star spangled ribbons that say "Just Pretend it's all OK."

Canada has these political movements that crop up arround personalitlies. Parties rise out of the mist. I tried to read some Canadian press covering their recent budget legislation and I felt like I was watching cricket. I didn't know the rules and everything was happening in a parallel universe with the same language but different culture. Alberta is like Texas of the north. Yehaa!
