If you want to actually FEEL something, give a listen to Johnny Cash's last album, American IV, the second song. You won't walk away unaffected. NIN did it too, but this is simply amazingly poignant.

Xmas Eve candlelight service at the Riverwalk snake-handler church was more than interesting. No one would go with me so I did it solo. Flickering lights, boisterous song singing and lots of hands raised up to heaven. Amen.

TeeVee steals too much singular thought. I've ratcheted down to 12 channels.

I think 14 might be one of the most challenging ages to be. But then again you are who you were from the beginning so...nature, not nuture wins out.

The main topic of one of the Xmas dinners was what is the oldest living organism. Although thr mangrove tree is Hawaii's answer, I prefer the giant underground fungus growing somewhere in Minnesota, or was it Michigan. Forget the salt bacterium. It's lazy science.

Happy New Year one and all.

400,000 Mexican cross the border each year ILLEGALLY. Bush is going to a conference in Mexico to assure Fox etal that he will pass a bill that makes everything okay...full wages, rights, basically everything, and in 3 years citizenship status. Once that happens there is no border. It will have dissolved.
I cannot get even one person to discuss this. If you act like an ostrich with your head stuck in the sand, someone will kick you in your uprighted ass.
Maybe then you will wake up, but it will be far too late.
