Heath Ledger Found Dead in NYC at Age 28
**This is just sad. We were stunned to hear this. We really liked him, had the potential to become one of the greats. Why does this happen to someone who is so talented?
Crossing Mayor Giuliani often had a price
**If you are thinking of voting for this guy, you have to read this……he sounds WORST then George W, more like a mob boss then a politician. =(
Fred Thompson Drops Presidential Bid
**I bet you didn’t see that coming……….lol
Bhutto’s niece wants end to ‘dynastic’ politics
**At least someone else is speaking the truth about the politics and Bhutto’s roll. Time magazine had a very good article on her true scarred legacy and how she was just as much part of the problem.
CNN readers respond angrily to ‘race or gender’ story
**I love this! Because these voters are refusing to be pigeionholed! It is so insulting to think that just because you are black or a woman that you will vote for a candidate. That is the issue that I had with Bhutto fans, just because she was a woman didn’t mean she helped women………she didn’t.
35 years after Roe: A legacy of law and morality
**This issue is never as simple as so many people make it out to be. The extreme right-to-lifers don’t want to acknowledge what a woman goes through on making a decision such as that. Overall, I don’t have a problem with someone believing in right-to-life, what I have an issue with is them telling everyone else what to do with their lives and their refusal to acknowledge that IF they would get their heads out of the sand and teach truthful sex education and give access to birth control they would really cut down the rate of abortion. Knowledge is power and preventive, when you give access to those who need it most.
I did get out for a walk today. Took me a bit to gear up, it was colder today then yesterday and windy. But it was beautiful out. I know most of the country has enough of their own ice, but here is a little bit of ours.
As you can see, most of our grass is still green.
Later I was in the bedroom looking outside the window and I looking at an awkward angle I was able to see Mt. Hood. Now let me explain something about myself. My sense of direction is horrible. The main road that leads to where we live curves and I easily lose which direction the mountain is. So I really thought that it was more to the left of us, on the other side. Never thought I would be able to see it from that window. Doesn’t help that it is normally covered in clouds…….lol
So when I went to go check the mail, I walked on to the end of that part of the neighborhood to where one of the main roads are and saw this.
I know that the 2 pictures look same, but there is enough of a difference that I don’t know which one I like the best. I was just happy as hell that I finally got to get a picture of it!
