What is music?

Hears what I think.  Music is sound that's not negative-music.  Negative-music sucks the real music out of you.  It's sound disguised as music that's designed to sell something, including, often, itself.  But is there neutral-music?  Sound that just sits there doing nothing.  Well, it's still taking up space that could be used by positive-music.   Let's say you're driving down the road listening to commercial-free NPR "jazz'.  It's paint by numbers music.  Pretty harmless.  It doesn't really suck the music out of you.  It just takes up space that you could be filling by your own singing.  Next time you notice that the "music" you are listening to is really doing nothing but taking up space, turn it off and sing for fifteen seconds.  THAT'S MUSIC.

Technology is great and so is my mother the earth

It's true us humans like to invent stuff.  I'm not trying to stop us but I'm not thinkin it's gonna save us either.  How can we keep creating in service to our lord and savior our great mother the earth?

Oh my god I'm blogging

First the caveats... I don't have a capital q, an exclamation point, the number one, or the delete key so if you're wondering why I spell qtym in lowercase, I seem less than excited, I write in pluralistic terms or I say things that seem like things I wish I hadn't said, it's because of my keyboard.
