| I hate articles about global warming. The earth has taken pretty good care of itself for a few billion years. Are we really so arrogant that we think that, in just a couple hundred years, we can bring the planet to the brink of destruction? |

Maybe I should get a girlfriend...
Thats what my mom said to me when I got my pet rats.
She could be right. |

| "I want to keep my soul fertile for the changes, so things keep getting born in me, so things keep dying when it is time for things to die. I want to keep walking away from the person I was a moment ago, because a mind was made to figure things out, not to read the same page recurrently" -Donald Miller |

| This is so complicated. I hate not feeling like I am in complete control of everything in my life. |

| So the other day, the governor of Massachusets called this whole situation with the Big Dig a "tar baby" referencing the Uncle Remus story in which Br'er Rabbit gets entangled in a literal baby mad of tar. In other words, he was calling the Big Dig a sticky situation. Well, apparently, some time after the story was originally published, "tar baby" became a racist epithet. Shortly after the governor of Massachusets used the term, there was some outcry (enough to warrant a story on the Drudge Report) by civil rights leaders over the "racist epithet." Seriously.
Next time I see a commercial advertising thin pieces of crunchy, bread-like food, I am gonna sue over the public use of the racist epithet "cracker".
