Commentary: Yesterday, 1 October, was the anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, sixty-four years since Chairman Mao stood atop the Gate of Heavenly Peace (the Tiananmen) & declared that "China has stood up." Scores of millions of Chinese would die of violence or starvation in the twenty-seven years Mao misruled the Middle Kingdom.

The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, "You Left Right?" from Pin Points and Gin Joints (T.L.A.M.)
Commentary:
"Are you regretful? Are ya?
Are you remorseful? Are ya?
Are you successful? Or are ya
Just tryin' to make it through?
Did your whole world just shatter?
Are you happy or sadder?
Does it really matter?
Did I matter to you?"
