I went to a Jim Wallis talk/book signing last night at the Trinity Episcopal Church in Boston. It was essentially an expansion on the interviews he’s been giving lately. And by that, I mean he’s saying a lot of the same things word for word, just last night he said more of them. [...]

Did I really just send an e-mail to Ted Kennedy and John Kerry asking them to oppose the nomination of Alberto Gonzales? At least I know that my request isn’t falling on deaf ears.
This was an action item that got through Sojo.net today. I suppose that I don’t have grounds to write to [...]

So, I braved the big library last week and found a really good spot to work. The back of the library looks over Storrow Drive and the Charles River and I’ve decided that this view is the one for me. Especially since the Charles is frozen and it keeps reminding me of Eternal [...]

Took pictures of Josh shoveling a channel in front of our house. There is also something hilarious about [...]

So I’m giving up my compaq notebook this week when my job ends. I’m also giving up Windows at the same time. I installed a new hard disk in my old desktop and installed linux on it. The old hard disk with Windows is still there and we will need it to [...]

In the interests of equal time, here is a blog that criticises Not One More Damn Dime Day and others like it (Buy Nothing Day is mentioned specifically.) After reading it, I have to admit that he has some good points but I still think he’s a little off the mark. There likely [...]
