Elections

Much as I try not to only post political stuff here, it becomes
increasingly harder as the election approaches.

If you live in California, there is a critical senate race, the winner
will have a huge amount of influence over what happens to the coast of
California from roughly just above santa barbara to santa cruz.

Peg Pinard is the democratic candidate and has a long history of
preserving and restoring beaches.

Her opponent, a man who shamelessly uses the work of his parents as a
lie to appear a friend to to the Latino community, is very tied to the
Republican state and federal administrations and has intimated he is
open to offshore drilling.

Please vote for Peg and save our coast

The site will ask you enter a name or user name, then it generates a word for each letter it is interesting what it comes up with, it described me very well, take it for a spin:

Caveliers for Kerry


Although my Spanish comprehension has declined to embarrassingly minimal, the pictures here are very striking:
Sillymuse

the power of a picture

this is so amazing, and also sad, but important I think

a mosaic of photos of those who have lost their lives in Iraq, it is very powerful, very moving and really is worth seeing, see the image here

Not humming a happy tune

I did know some of these facts, I did not know all of them. If you have friends, family or loved ones in our military or in Iraq in harms way, I am having trouble imaginging that you could feel very good about this.

Urge folks to think conservatively until we can generate less life threatening alternatives, and if you own one - why?

well...he is!

The elections are coming up fast, please, please, please do not vote for the current president and administration, click here to see several reasons why

What's in a name?

This is pretty cool, although I am not certain how truly extensive it goes. I will look up another few
references for comparison and post them as I go.

What's in a name - 20,000 names and their meanings

can you spare a time?

I used to do this every single day, and made it my homepage, but I guess over time and many jobs and moves later I eventually lost track and forgot about it. I was reminded today (thanks MS)

It pretty much couldn't be easier to donate to 5 good causes and you don't have to spend a penny of your own, just about 20 seconds of your day. Please help if you can.

This was posted on one of the news links off iwon.com. I'm thinking this was an interesting photo choice...looking at the headline. Or perhaps a conspiracy and we are supposed to think he is attacking this small child and that woman is actually quite distressed.... :O)

"Bush, Kerry Go on the Attack After Debate"

hear them

Despite what the President and current administration say, not all soldiers and their families believe they are fighting or dying for a just cause...

The best thing about this article is that came from the Christian Science Monitor, which leads me to the happy conclusion that not all Christians are being duped by this President & Administration that has so shamelessly (& bordering on blasphemy) tried to deceive and manipulate good people by using a religious ideology and twisting it to their message - um, but I don't feel strongly about that or anything...

15. I will always cherish the initial misconceptions I had about you.

16. Thank you. We're all refreshed and challenged by your unique point of

view.
