is this just masturbation?

why in god's good name (which is hubert, i checked) would anybody wish to write a blog? i mean, i ahve never written ajournal as kid, and even when i was travelling my journal consisted of " december 3rd- jim. big pie. stoned". that way i knew what i'm talking about and had the memories. but that wouldn't be much of ablog. well, except perha[s for english lit majors: "wow, man. did you see how he used the big to describe the pie? and stoned. wow. in Israel today stone is such a complex word"..so why do i write. well, considering this is only my second blog, this is not really a legitimate question, but so is asking for an oriental pattern buttoned shirt at a designer shirt store yet many men do it. so i examine my life. and i think it's not for the fame. for fame you have to pay. in sweat. and me? i'm pretty comfortable. no sweat nor nothing. perhaps a bit hungry but that woukd soon be resolved by a raid to the Milky (Israeli tapeyoka) fileed fridge. and i'm preety sure not many people are stopped on the street "hey, you're the guy from the blog JACK'S CRAZY JOURNEY IN FINLAND! please sign my boobs". no i think blogs are either cheap therapy or a deesire to get a message out. and for me it's both. i want people to gather around and shout. to say that ther's crap going on and we're not gonna take it. hey' if this was a south american country we'd all be grabbing guns and fighting for a just society. where the police care for the citizens. where aeducation is not seen as a burden on the govrement and where enviroment is not that bummer topic that small parties get to occupy and is equivalent to getting an executive producer title. there is other shit going on than just national security. and since we are civil people we don't tankjack a tank and bomb the Knesset. but at least we write. and at least i am pissed! and if we have any power, we should all be! and this is where we scream it. at least at first. later on we need to scream over podiums and stages. that is the only way to get us to sign boobs. and perhaps social welfare.
