Nakon punih 38 godina ponovo pada pun Mesec 25. decembra, pa još na gregorijanski Božić (gle čuda...). Astronomi očekuju da bude najveći oko 6 sati izjutra - gde god vas zatekne na kugli Zemaljskoj u to doba, shodno lokalnoj vremenskoj zoni.
Danas po 13. put svet obeležava tzv. Joe Strummer Day, u znak sećanja na jednog od prvih punk rock bandita, muzičara i tekstopisca, voditelja radio emisija, glumca i političkog aktivistu. Došao je 21. avgusta 1952. godine u Ankaru (Turska) kao Džon Grejem Melor, a otišao 22. decembra 2002. iz Brumfilda (UK) kao Džo Stramer.
Glumio je u desetak igranih i dokumentarnih filmova, za neke radio ili odabirao soundtrack, sam je režirao i jedan "nemi" dokumentarac (Hell W10, 1983).
The Future Is Unwritten, full documentary (Julien Temple, 2007)
Stramer je oduvek želeo da bude DJ na BBC radiju. Želja mu je ispunjena 1998. godine kada je vodio serijal jednočasovnih emisija pod nazivom "Joe Strummer's London Calling", gde je puštao muziku iz svoje kolekcije ploča - pank, rege, folk, džez, afrobit - sve ono što je uticalo na njegovu karijeru i sam život.
Joe Strummer's London Calling, 8 episodes (BBC Radio)
Fondacija Stramervil (pun zvaničan naziv je The Joe Strummer Foundation For New Music) osnovana je 2002. neposredno po Džoovoj smrti. To je neprofitna organizacija, koja za cilj ima popularizaciju nepoznatih bendova, promociju i razvoj novih muzičkih stilova. Ove godine je objavila dva albuma-kompilacije raznih izvođača sa pesmama čiji je autor bio Džo Stramer. - Strummerville A Go Go #1 (17.08.2015) - Strummerville A Go Go #2 (10.12.2015)
Šta bi nam danas poručio Džo Stramer? Garantovano bi podržao to što radi fondacija koja nosi njegovo ime, jer to jeste bila njegova vizija koju održavaju živom. Treba uvek imati na umu njegove reči:
Filozofija - kada u mračnoj sobi tražite crnu mačku.
Metafizika - kada u mračnoj sobi tražite crnu mačku koja uopšte nije tu.
Teologija - kada u mračnoj sobi tražite crnu mačku koja uopšte nije tu, i urlate "Otkrio sam je!".
Nauka - kada uzmete baterijsku lampu u ruke pa krenete u potragu za crnom mačkom u mračnoj sobi.
Sve ovo važi pod uslovom da "mračna soba" podrazumeva kako u njoj nema svetla, prekidača za električnu sijalicu koji je obično (za neupućene) na zidu kraj ulaznih vrata. Ili tako, ili je neko ovde retard - i to poveći.
A možda je neko namerno ugasio svetlo kako bi smo dangubili u lovu na crnu mačku, umesto da ga upalimo i izađemo napolje. Iz svojih glava, u svet. U mraku su, ionako, sve mačke crne. Mislite o tome.

12. Ali ženi ne dopuštam da bude učitelj, niti da vlada mužem, nego da bude mirna.
13. Jer je Adam sazdan prvi, zatim Eva;
14. I Adam se ne prevari; a žena prevarena, postade prestupnica;
15. Ali će se spasti rađanjem djece, ako ostanu u vjeri i ljubavi i svetinji sa čestitošću.
Trudila sam se da razvejem te religijske praznoverice iz umova žena, da ih podučim kako vera treba da im počiva na nauci i razumu; tamo, gde sam i sama našla svoj mir i utehu, što nikada nisam mogla u Bibliji i crkvi. Što one manje vjeruju, to bolje po njihovu ličnu sreću i napredak.
Biblija i crkva su najveći kamen spoticanja na putu ženske emancipacije.
Kada žene konačno shvate da su vlasti i religije samo ljudske izmišljotine; da su Biblije, molitvenici, katehizmi i papska pisma samo emanacije ljudskog mozga - tada ih više ništa neće moći da ugnjetava, krijući se iza raznih zakonskih zabrana pod maskom nebeskog autoriteta: "Gospod je tako rekao".
