John heeft ff een korte pauze ingelast momenteel... Hij zit alweer in Georgia, met z'n love natuurlijk

(NOT) WAITING ON THE WORLD TO CHANGE - ENTRY NO. 1
(Preface: Don't get turned off from reading this by any pre-conceived notions you have about the subject matter. I'll make you a deal. When something I write turns you off, then you can click the "x" button and go about your day.)
A year ago this month I wrote a song called "Waiting on the World to Change", in which I tried to express the feelings of helplessness that come with knowing what needs to change in the world but also knowing the futility of trying.
Since that song has been released, there has been one social issue I've kept particularly focused on, silently keeping notes in my mind about what needs to be fixed (and more constructively, how to go about fixing it) while hoping that someone else sharing my exact views would carry out the work without my ever getting involved.
Hey, I'm just being honest.
I'm talking about (see preface!) global warming. Wait! Don't move the mouse. Finger down. Please. Just give me a second. You can watch that video of a cat playing the piano in a few minutes. I just may surprise you with what I'm going to say.
In the "degree of difficulty" column, reversing the effects of global warming is a .5 out of a possible 10, at least in theory. You just get back by reversing the way you came. No accounting for a volatile political world stage, or clashing of belief structures. Just throw this bitch in reverse and we're home.
The trouble is, nobody has managed to come close to bringing this issue to you in a way that doesn't turn you off. At best, it's a bore, and at worst (toilet paper square accounting?) it's insulting to human autonomy.
It seems to me that when it comes to this issue, we've been given only two sides to pick from: side one says the future of global warming does not present a doomsday scenario, almost chuckling the matter aside. Side two says it is a dire issue (which it is), and then goes on to inundate side one with so many separate nakedly-scientific points that they make naivete' seem cozy by comparison.
So here I am, introducing a third side. A laid-back, panic free approach to environmentalism. One that believes the message of "An Inconvenient Truth" is sound, but that it's an incredibly un-fun name for a movie. A side free from the cry of hypocrisy, for it doesn't make sweeping promises. A side that drives an SUV on the way to the grocery store but then produces nylon mesh bags at the checkout line. A side that believes in bringing a change of perspective to our government but letting Carl Rove finish his meal first.
Ladies and Gentlemen, Fans and Friends, I submit to you a third way: Light Green.
No thinking about "offsetting your carbon footprint". No rallies. No brow-beating people who think the Earth just has a fever. Pick one thing to change this year, and keep the rest of your life the same. After all, the only message the charts with escalating red lines are meant to send is that the red lines have to stop escalating, not that hey have to drop to the bottom of the graph by next Tuesday.
Part of the Light Green approach will be the (attempted) introduction of products that are cheap, easy alternatives to cut down on plastics. In the next 90 days I'm going to see how many of these products I can get produced. If it works, great. If not, you'll at least have blogs to read. I'm going to make this one of the focus points of my blog for the next few months., and hopefully by summer there will be a few items at the merchandise stands that you might not have a problem switching to.
And to anybody ready to cut me down for this, here's my full disclosure: I drive a Porsche SUV, I still drink lots of bottled water, and I will be flying private charter several times during my summer tour. However, my bus has been converted to Bio-Diesel, and I'll be coming up with even more ways to adapt to the Light Green mentality before I set out for the summer.
Now go watch that guy getting nailed in the balls on YouTube, but think about it. It's all you've got to do in order to go Light Green.

Light Green; leuk bedacht, maar onwerkelijk uiteindelijk... Denk niet dat er ook maar iemand is die er nu anders over gaat denken...
Nouja ik kan me nu wel mengen in "milieu" gesprekken en zeggen dat ik Licht Groen ben. Ga met mn auto naar mn werk (alhoewel het nog geen 2 minuten rijden is), laat de kraan lopen tijdens het tandenpoetsen, sta uren onder de douche, maar ik neem tijdens het boodschappen doen wel altijd mn eigen tassen mee
Hij moet zich maar gewoon houden bij dat wat hij het beste doet (zijnde gitaarspelen, liedjes schrijven) vind ik, ipv milieubewuste preken houden...
Hij verveelde zich vast aangezien JS weer de hort op was. Wilde weer even bewijzen dat ie intelligente dingen aankon

John Mayer to be GQ Cover Boy
Here are some exclusive shots of singer couple Jessica Simpson and John Mayer on Thursday from the set of his new GQ photoshoot in Atlanta, Georgia.
Mayer will be featured on and upcoming cover of GQ magazine cover with the Atlanta skyline as the backdrop. (In 1998, after dropping out from Boston’s prestigious Berklee College of Music, Mayer created a large, and devoted fan base in Atlanta as an acoustic performer for live music venues.)

John Mayer to Jessica Simpson It’s Me or Your Pals
Sources tell Star that lovebirds - Jessica Simpson and John Mayer - of eight months looked glum while touring Canada last week because they are bumping heads over her friends!
Jessica Simpson, 26, “misses her friends in L.A., and the easiest way to see them all is to hook up at a club,” says an insider.
But John, 29, “can’t stand the nightclub scene and all the superficiality that goes with it.,” says a source close to John.
The singer was furious when Jessica Simpson was snapped in a cleavage-baring dress while club hopping with pals in L.A. on April 16, says a source. And the two had fought earlier about her May 4 appearance with the Pussycat Dolls in Las Vegas. “I believe John asked Jess to think about what was more important tot her- partying or their relationship.”

quote:John Mayer makes TIME's 100 Most Influential People of 2007
John made place 15 of 100 on the TIME 100 artists and entertainers section!
Here's TIME's text about him, written by Josh Tyrangiel:
John Mayer doesn't radiate courage. With his sunken eyes and a wardrobe you might generously call agoraphobic chic, his aura of passivity is an artistic achievement. Factor in Mayer's Grammy-winning ode to helplessness, Waiting on the World to Change, and it's tempting to dismiss the 29-year-old as the latest figure in a disturbing cultural phenomenon: the rock star as wuss.
Listen to his music, though, and you'll discover that Mayer wields sincerity like a pitchfork. His empathetic voice and emotional fearlessness elevate songs like Your Body Is a Wonderland and Daughters from pop ballads into more meaningful territory; give them half a chance, and during vulnerable moments, they'll be your friends for life. Sincerity has also led him ably down the mine-strewn path (for a white boy from Connecticut) from pop to the blues. Mayer may never have seen the inside of a juke joint, but he knows that the blues are less about melanin than about truth and technique, which explains why Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy and B.B. King have called on him for guitar playing that matters.
Mayer has friends in some very odd places—go on, name another person with Steve Jobs, Kanye West and Jessica Simpson on speed dial—and where his burgeoning celebrity may take him is a subject he ponders in a good regular column for Esquire ("Music Lessons with John Mayer") and on the only musician's blog not written by a publicist. If reading's not your thing, check out his response on YouTube to Ryan Seacrest's questions about Simpson; dude's pretty funny too. Whatever waits in his future, you can bet Mayer will find a way to sing about it truthfully.
