"Will you let it run your life?"


* Like the words of other prophetic authors, such as H. G. Wells, George Orwell'description
of life in 1984 under the rule of Big Brother, including telescreens, thought-police,
mass-manipulation and Room 101, has been indelibly stamped on our collective-psyche.

The parallels between the fictional titular year and today's Election Day
have become our reality. A warped-version of Big Brother is a clear and present threat to
Democracy in the United States.

There were no happy endings for Winston, Julia and The Brotherhood.
Their fate was cast in ink by an enlightened scribe. 

Our fate is now in our own hands.
Beware the savage jaw of 2024.

She stands in the hall
I stand at the doorway
She stands at the door
I lean in the window
She leans on the wind
I wait for beginnings
She waits for the end"
