So Glad to Be Back!

Sorry I haven't posted for awhile. I thought I was going to have all kinds of stories to tell you about our big trip and the inauguration, but it was really quite a disappointment (given what's at stake) and since it's all in the history books now, I won't bore you with the details. I did, however, enjoy my time in DC, spending countless hours in the many museums surrounding the mall--the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden being my favorite.



I actually got dizzy when I stumbled upon two of my favorite paintings:



Diana IV by William Beckman



The Pink Tree by John Currin

Other highlights of the trip: took a quick jaunt up to New York to play in the snow for the day (found a great restaurant in East Village-- Caravan of Dreams) and met an incredible man on our flight back to Seattle who happened to be a physicist and professor. We had a lovely four-hour conversation, during which, he confirmed (with a smile) my suspicion that Eve was not born out of Adam's rib.


Vote For Food

Vote For Food

The cowardly and corrupt bush administration, working along with the dirty allow(ie) government is coercing Iraqis to vote. The allow(ie) puppets are threatening Iraqis who don't vote that they will not get their monthly food rations.

The bush gang can do anything to reach to their goals.
I mean ANYTHING.

It is well known all over Iraq now that if you didn't go to vote, the government will cut your monthly food rations.

--that was from Raed in the Middle

See also: Baghdad Burning: "People in many areas are being told that if they don’t vote- Sunnis and Shia alike- the food and supply rations we are supposed to get monthly will be cut off. We’ve been getting these rations since the beginning of the nineties and for many families, it’s their main source of sustenance. What sort of democracy is it when you FORCE people to go vote for someone or another they don’t want?"

. . . Meanwhile, turn on the news in America, and all you hear are harpsichords--all playing the same damn tune: "Praise Bush! He has Done It! Despite all Liberal Obstacles! The World is one Democracy Brighter! Hallejuh Praise the Lord--the One True Lord--OUR LORD--and don't you forget it!"

Whizzy for Women



"Whizzy is a device that enables a woman to urinate from a standing position like a man. It is formed of heavy paper that slides virtually flat between your legs and opens to form a trough. Its unique and patented shape, angle and easy-grip handles make it very easy to use. It adjusts to each user's anatomy and stance. You stand naturally, with no bending or straddling necessary. It is disposable, and fits easily into purse, pocket or backpack."
