I don’t know if you are aware of this fact, but you are not free. As you read this, your choices are being narrowed and someone somewhere is delighting in calculating your fate. Oh, those dastardly companies with their electronic gizmos and retirement plans. Oh, those sweet corrupt governments filled to the brim with con-men and closet perverts. Every minute of every busy day they scheme and they scheme and they scheme: How can they get you to buy their new meatball-flavored cola? How can they get you to vote down gay abortions? How can they convince you to pick up an assault rifle and kill for freedom? How can they get you to look the other way?

You see, my babies, The Man is everywhere. He comes on with a smile, often bearing gifts, but be warned! He is ever-ready to catch you unawares and scoop you up under the black wings of his tailored coat, adding you to his army of undead consumer drones. And you must beware the drones of The Man, children. Beware. They frequent bars and your workplace; they IM you on Sunday night when you’re home alone; they stick strange symbols to the rear of their cars pledging support for censorship and criminal wars and demonizing freedom; they could be the unfamiliar face you wake up next to after a drunken bender or the well-known radio host secretly addicted to pain killers.

Luckily, le Trash cares. We (and I mean the “Royal We”) would stop at nothing to snatch you from the greasy arms of The Man and deliver you to the promised land of your choosing if, of course, the price is right. But in the event that you’ve nothing to offer as payment or you just can’t bring yourself to put a nominal value on your personal salvation, I’ve decided to start a new segment called Stick it to The Man. In it you’ll be able to read facts and trivia about The Man and even learn how others have managed escaped his dirty tricks. With some wily cunning and a few well-placed banana peels, you could possibly survive. It’ll be a lot of fun and, who knows, you just might learn something. So, look for more on The Man coming soon….

Now, get out there and stick it to The Man!
