this is another interview with Big Daddy Soul done on april 5, 1995 stolen without permission from The Little Blue Book On Direct Action

so how old are you really?
A. (much laughter) see, it ... well it's like this ... the way i view it is that there are two sets of ages. there is the age that documents the actual time spent here on this earth and in my eyes fairly useless and square. it's just another way for the man (mr. suit) to keep everyone in place by the constant barrage of act your age, you're too old for that, when you get older, etc ... think of the possibilities if you weren't stuck in that stifling peer pressure atmosphere. it's just another way for them to keep everyone in their place. then there's the more relevant and useful barometer of age which is how old you really feel.

Q. what's this about red hots and fireballs being some sort of dietary staple?
A. in this revolution you will need sugar for energy, and energy for the movement of ideas and action. the burning sensation is to keep your body and mind alert at all times and In a deeper sense, It signifies the burning of our hearts, soul, and spirit.

Q. so, the Young Lions Conspiracy .... what's up with that?
A. at this point the Young Lions seem to be growing, growing from what was once a smaller underground organization built on the realization of facts and ideas brought about by cause and effect and demise of organizations that have come before and organizations that are happening now. to be truthful ... I'm not sure how big or small this organization is at this time. actually the lack of information Is in reality the strength. once again,
it is becoming more widespread.

Q. like the Lord High Fixers?
A. yeah, they are a good example ... well Tim and Mike had been studying for some time and I think the others involved were, but didn't really know or realize it yet. i think they will be fine teachers.

Q. anything else you would like to say?
A. (laughter) well, i'd like to say a lot more things (more laughter) but in keeping with this particular train of thought i think that it's more important for one who is about to enter this "NOW" revolution, you will have to understand that you are declaring your old self dead... then move forward and re-evaluate from that point on. this is very much a direct action movement, getting and being involved in one way or another ... always keeping a step ahead, keeping your mind ahead ... i mean don't keep butting your head against their walls, man! look for doors and then go, GO! just leave them snarled up in their worries, their motives - it's their kick... theirs and mr. suit's dreary high.
