This speech below is when I fell in love with our new president, Barrack Obama. The occasion was a response to the grievous remarks of Rev. Jeremiah Wright. But on the way, Barrack talked about race honestly -- a really rare event in our country. He said, basically, that we all have legitimate grievances on both sides, white and black. But we can spend our time being stuck in those old gripes, or . . . we can move forward, to solve problems, together. Thank God, we chose to move forward, together! America, you are so endlessly able to reinvent yourself in the face of challenge. I am so proud of you!We all are prejudiced in some way. It is actually a sad natural tendency across all cultures and nations, written in the need to protect our own tiny tribe as human animals. The only thing that distinguishes the person who builds a bridge across race, or creed, or gender, or creed, is if you LOOK for your own prejudices, admit them without shame, and CHANGE THEM when you find them. Can we really do that?! Yes, we can!Let's make this a new day.

You Fight Fair
For you, a fight is not about proving you're right.
Instead, it's about discussing and resolving difficult issues.
You don't look for fights, but you don't avoid them either.
You realize that clearing the air is good, when you go about it the right way.
Do You Fight Fair?
Christ, Edain McCoy, Gene Roddenberry, Martin Luther King, Jr., Jim Tressel, and anybody with an open mind.
My favorite band is Evanescence. I like stuff like Green Day, Disturbed, Wolf Mother, and System of a Down without knowing what they look like or who does what song. I love classical, opera, soundscapes, country, metal, hard rock, and new age especially. Music like Loreena McKennit, Enya, Metallica, Linkin Park, Pearl Jam, and of course classic stuff like Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and oooh, Heart, my very favorite!
Looking at Ms. Wilson reminded me of an issue I've been dealing with lately. I have something I wanna say about fat chicks: We rock! I hate to see other fat chicks hiding their beauty under dimmed self-confidence. Be sexy, be pretty, be a flirt . . . don't buy into prejudice or a bunch of media crap that invalidates you. :)

Loved Pride and Prejudice, Moulin Rouge, You've Got Mail, The Lake House, and my all time favorite, Practical Magick. Love anything with Chandler Chapman, of course!
Usually not worth the time it takes away from making love, walking your dog, or talking to your friends.
I enjoy fantasy and science fiction, books on witchcraft, counseling books, and lately, just a good beach book.
