Good story - foul ball - once in a life time - whoops! - how a father should react - what a model example - watch the first bit ---
...
Good story - no baiting Russia - EEurope missle defense system - not - are we getting rational? ---
...
Good story? - yes and no - finally partial justice but - extremely slow - after 3 years of litigation she can finally sue Halliburton/KBR - but it will be years before she is able to collect anything if ever - you have to admire and salute people like Jamie Leigh Jones who insist on justice at such tremendous personal costs ---

Only one in four high school students in Oklahoma could answer who the first President of the US was - maybe they should have required all of their students to listen to Obama - sad - they're whom Imhofe represents - ignorant and free? - one wonders where the country is headed - thanks to friend K... ---

And - more religiosity - higher teen birth rates - pregnant/barefoot/kitchen? - surely not - but I doubt that Tony Perkiins of Family Research Council will be quoting this ---

Garrison Keillor on Healthcare - his brush with mortality - we're all in this ---

Darwin movie - not in the US - incredible ---

American germs ---

I really liked this - rational reality? - what's yours is mine ---
...
Canada - global carbon bully? - surely not - tar sands ---

I've said before how I like the reality base of what Chris Hedges says - he has a unique experience for his base - this short piece helped me gain a little better perspective of Hedges' 'dark vision' - the threat of Fascism - the mental problems of returning vets is never a consideration before going to war - but then a realistic full costing never is either ---
...
And Obama - Hitler - Fascism - healthcare - the reality ---
...
Orwell - newspeak - peace is war - Tom Engelhardt is another writer who sometimes has a seemingly 'dark vision' but for me is tied to reality - his TomDispatch and other writings lay out the 'empire' aspect and today's continuous 'war' ---

60s/70s - light rains - really great - comfortable - enjoy the weekend
