My laptop heaved and died yesterday. My lifeline to Gawker, Gazeta, and Rosetta Stone, three sites I ravage daily. I was so distraught at the idea of putting my fingers into someone else’s keyboard - an act of adultery, an overture of treason to my own little laptop that couldn’t - that I found myself devouring any and all of the print that came in the international moving container last week. Among the millions of overzealously bought college-era works, lie a pamphlet on Mexico’s Zapatistas. I lapped up the 25, miniscule-type pages in the space of an hour, entertained and titillated by Subcomandante Marcos’ epiphanies. It slumbered on my bookshelves for 8 years without attention. Recalling how zealously my college buddies in the PoliSci Department talked of the Zapatistas, I set myself to re-googling, in an attempt to branch out beyond the pamphlet. The result, http://www.zapatistas.org , proved to be the biggest Poli Sci boner killer. Nuthin but a bunch of Geocities handmade trinket e-hawkers in ski masks. Humpf.
