"Paul Levinson's It's Real Life is a page-turning exploration into that multiverse known as rock and roll. But it is much more than a marvelous adventure narrated by a master storyteller...it is also an exquisite meditation on the very nature of alternate history." -- Jack Dann, The Fiction Writer's Guide to Alternate History

Neil Young on Blogging, Bailouts, More



Great new song by Neil Young, at his perceptive, now curmudgeonly best ... "Fork in Road" ...

My favorite lines (in no particular order) ... "There a bailout coming but it's not for you. It's for all those creeps hiding what they do" ... And "I'm a big rock star, my sales have tanked. I still got you. Thanks." And "I'm not dying, not giving up, not cashing in."

And this one is right out the ballpark ... "Keep on bloggin till the power goes out. Your battery's dead. Twist and shout."

Blogging - no communication - can in itself cure what ails our society. It certainly can't solve the economic crisis, or make peace in the Middle East. But it beats the alternative of saying nothing...
