I'm Honored:

I've never met, as far as I can remember, Eugene Johnson, over at KBOO in Portland. He had a blog I like and try to read as often as I can.

Lately I've been down. The news seems to get worse, both nationally and internationally. I had some cautious hopes after the last national election, but the smell of a chicken coop permeates the Democratic Party. I'm reading Naomi Klein's Shock Doctrine, which is a fine fine book and one I think we all should read, discuss, and then act upon her insights. It's not a cheery book, though.

Eugene came through with a good gentle nudge from behind. He put me in a list of people who I would neverever consider myself...aw, hell. Thanks, Eugene! Pidamaya!

Hey Talapus Pete. I feel like a cheer leader most of the time, so when I know people are doing good work, like you, I do my best to cheer them on.

I often find myself depressed in this crazy and insane world. Then I ask myself, "What am I gonna do about it? Sit around and watch TV?"

Like Jack Nicholson said in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," "At least I tried." And maybe, like in the movie, some wave of energy will come and actually find success.

We'll see, Brother.
