Che, Hunter S Thompson, and a cease fire with Neembu

Posted: Nov 30, 2007 Fri 03:09 pm     Views: 377    Interacts: 0

As most of you already know, I consider Che Guevara (the Argentina /Cuban revolutionary), my spiritual guide with whom I confer matters of great importance.

As I mentioned before, I made the pilgrimage on a motorcycle in the Americas, to retrace the route that my spiritual mentor had taken. I, too was struck by the inequities meted out to the poor. I rushed to Cuba, but since the revolution was not Televised, I missed out on it: I was too late.

I am also a big fan of gonzo journalism, which is the only true form of journalism, as practiced by Hunter S Thompson. I did not know of the man until I saw Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (which I shall write a review for). I love that movie. I have watched it many many times since. Usually while partaking on some of the nutrition that Hunter utilizes on his journey as well.

So, what a coincidence that none other than our own Karachi Che, whose avatar just happens to be Hunter S Thompson's picture, reaches out to me and asks me to cease fire with the neembu!

I know it: the real Che is communicating to me via Karachi Che! Using references that I cannot ignore!

I do not take these matters lightly, I am suffering trials and tribulations at the hands of the sinister and unjust, I have displayed the patience of Job and realized that my path is beset by inequities and injustices of the tyrannical ones!

Therefore, at the urging of Che authentic via Che Karachi, I am henceforth going to ignore the Neembu.

Thank you and Good night!
