Description:
HERE AT HOME, WE'VE BEEN WATCHING A VIDEO FROM 2000
ABOUT THE TIME THE SERBS TOOK OVER THEIR PARLIAMENT IN BELGRAD
(AND SET IT ON FIRE; ELECTIONS HAD BEEN STOLEN)

ONE MAN TELLS ABOUT SEEING SOMEONE
THROW A TELEVISION OUT THE WINDOW

THE MAN SAID "WHY ARE YOU DOING THAT?"
THE SECOND MAN WAS LAUGHING:
"THIS TELEVISION! THIS IS THE STATE TELEVISION!"
AND THREW IT DOWN TO THE STREET.

THIS EVOKED CHEERING. THE SERBS HAD FUN THAT DAY, WHICH INTRIGUED US.

(I REMEMBER HEARING THAT THE ALBANIAN STREET RIOTS OF '97 WERE VERY FUNNY TOO; ABSURDIST AND DARK; THEY'D ALL BEEN SCREWED OVER IN A HUGE PYRAMID SCHEME)

SERBIAN OPPOSITION LAUNCHES CHRISTMAS CHARM OFFENSIVE: "Tens of thousands of Serbs attended public demonstrations on 7 January, which is Serbian Orthodox Christmas. In a new tactic, people kissed the riot police, who are President Slobodan Milosevic's last bastion of defense."

IT SOUNDS MORE LIKE SPORT THAT WE'D REALIZED.

OLYMPIC SMASH THE STATE TELEVISION -
WANTON TELEVISION SMASHING / FOR DISTANCE AND WANTONNESS
(NO-RULES TELEVISION HURLING)

ATHLETES MUST PROVIDE OWN EQUIPMENT

IT'S NOT HARD TO FIND AN OLD TV SET
THEY ARE PLENTIFUL
HERE IN AMERICA ONE MAY DISCARD THEM
WITH IMPUNITY

---

a large television landing directly on its face
makes a great deep sound
that makes everyone stop moving for a second
a great spooky whoomp

as the tube shatters its vacuum or whatever
we recommend doing this outdoors for the echoes

though there are a lot of concerns
video surveillance, or policemen
the thick broken glass and dust
and mercury escapes
which is bad for you

another gas too, xenon, zion?

but people can throw pretty far
for olympic glory

smash the state (television) turned out rather beautifully
to be a lot like bocci
or lawn bowling, as it is called on our cruise ships
a gentleman's sport
a leisure activity
wherein one television
(in our case, the big white one)
is thrown first
and thus becomes the target
for all the rest

whoever gets theirs closest
has won
