Shakey Bones formed in January of 2006 in Walnut Creek, a "boring suburban town in the east bay."...

Media Myths About the South: What Blacklash Against the Dixie Chicks?
Country radio has been refusing to play the first two singles from the new Dixie Chicks album Taking the Long Way, supposedly because "country people" are still offended by Chicks' singer Natalie Maines' anti-Bush comments made in 2003. The new album, which defiantly takes pride in still attacking Bush, has come on the album charts today at number one, selling 526,000 copies. It is also number one on the country album charts, despite the attempted boycott by country radio....

Book Release Party: Clandestines by Ramor Ryan
Please attend the West Coast launch of Ramor Ryan's debut novel,
Clandestines: The Pirate Journals of an Irish Exile.
A shrewd political thinker and philospher, Ryan spirits the reader from
the Zapatista Autonomous Zone to a Kurdish guerrilla camp, from Berlin
squats to Croatian rainbow gatherings. Clandestines is an epic
debut...non-fiction tales that read like Che's Motorcycle Diaries...if
they'd written by Hunter S. Thompson. At each stop along the way, we see a
world in flux, ...

666 is not the mark of the beast. It is really 616
Here - a Denver Post staff writer speculates whether nazis, anarchists, the 'antiglobalization movement', or the counterculture will have riots and demonstrations on June 6, 2006, due to the alignment of this day's numbers with the Mark of the Beast - 666. It is too bad that he was not informed about the most recent translation of the Book of Revelation indicates that the Mark of the Beast is really 661, and June 1, 1916, not to mention year 616, year 1616, all passed without satanism.
