What Does The "War On Terror" Have To Do With You?
Watch This Video , and you may begin to understand why I stand against what is happening in our country, in the world, and why so many others stand with me.
I know I am not the only one to believe as I do about the alarming path our country is on. We are not "elitists", and we are not overreacting. We are remembering our history lessons and recalling the many pitfalls and atrocities that have come to civilizations and empires before us. We stand against what we fear is coming. We wish to change this pattern of increasing deceit and fascism before it destroys this country like a cancer.
I Love My Country!!
"They that can give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety"
- Ben Franklin
"Freedom is fragile and must be protected. To sacrifice it, even as a temporary measure, is to betray it." - Germaine Greer
"He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it" - Martin Luther King Jr.
I will NOT let you make me AFRAID
I will NOT let you MANIPULATE me
I will NOT support MURDER out of FEAR
I will NEVER stop SPEAKING for TRUTH
I will NEVER stop THINKING for MYSELF
I will NEVER stop QUESTIONING

Questions About 9/11?
Not Sure What To Think?
It's not a blasphemy to ask questions, to doubt. You are not betraying anyone. If you're not satisfied with the answers you've been given, don't stop asking questions! Our right to think for ourselves and to have a say in how things are run in our country is a rare and beautiful thing in this world. To have a doubt is not to buy into any one theory: it is only to open one's mind to alternate possibilities. Look at these videos, if you don't agree, that's fine! They are theories. But don't close your mind to the possibilities simply because you might be scorned or considered a fool. Some of the most pioneering men and women in history were thought of as fools...until they were proven right.
"All truth passes through three stages: First, it is ridiculed; Second, it is violently opposed; and Third, it is accepted as self-evident." - Arthur Schopenhauer

The Responsibility Of A Free Press
"If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don't have to worry about the answers" - Thomas Pynchon
"If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, it expects what never was and never will be ... The People cannot be safe without information. When the press is free, and every man is able to read, all is safe." -Thomas Jefferson

Our Government
Sound Familiar?
"Whee! I'm the leader of America! I don't have to behave with dignity! Hey baby, you look tense... Look at me! I'm a war President!!" Yes, Ladies and Gentlemen, that is our glorious leader at the 2006 G-8 Summit , attempting to come up behind Angela Merkel , the Chancellor of Germany and give her a neck massage without permission. AND...
That's our decider-in-chief
WINKING at the Queen of England!!
WINKING!!!!!
That is diplomacy inaction.
The Constitution and Bill of Rights
These define the framework of an absolutely unprecedented and successful governmental system. Our freedoms, our ability to embrace diversity, have formed the backbone of what has made us a great and strong nation. It is the principles of liberty and freedom that men and women have gone to battle and died for. If we sacrifice these principles in the name of fear, what are we fighting for? What
is the American way? Is it a fast food restaurant on every corner of every street in the world, or is it the principles outlined by the founding fathers? What do
YOU think?
Aside from all that, I enjoy the great outdoors, hiking, exploring the ape caves at Mt. St. Helens, fishing, camping, rafting, campfires, Halloween, horror movies, sci fi movies, the dark, astronomy, humor, sarcasm, truth, critical thinking, logic, compassion, learning new things, being the devil's advocate, meeting new people, traveling, helping others as anonymously as possible, encouraging growth in myself and others, keeping an open mind, discovering joy in diversity, music, expression, history, watching people learn to understand each other, animals, balance, potential, tatoos, astrology (although I must confess just for fun), allowing my higher power to guide me each day, language, literature, ideas, controversy, dissonance, knowledge, wisdom, my power to affect change in the world, learning about myself, beauty, emotion, love, hate, anger, learning about other religions than my own, meditating every morning, the great gift of life, positivity, negativity, health and disease, peace and war, calm and disaster, life and death, acceptance vs. bigotry, knowing I don't need to fear unless I choose to,
Knowing my worth is not measured by my waist or breast size: Priceless
opposites, conflict, resolution, Halloween, exploring and accepting the dark side of myself, color, art, sex, abstinence, arts and crafts, psychology, fun, work, and a lot of other neat stuff. Want to know more? Ask me!
Phenomenal Woman "
I'd like to meet:
I'd love to meet Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert and David Letterman. I'd love to be in their line of work. Making people laugh is one of my joys/talents in life. I'd also like to meet Bear Grylls, whose strength, courage, charity, and positive outlook are an inspiration, and Keith Olbermann, whose incredulous and critical reporting give me new hope for American journalism.
New friends, open-minded people who want to meet new people. YOU, if you can open your mind and shut your mouth.;) If I have added you as a friend, I think you are interesting and would like to know you better. I am NOT a friend whore. If you are my friend and you don't think we talk enough, write me. I might just be busy or overwhelmed. I will try to keep in touch, but I have a lot of friends and it's not always possible for me to be the first to initiate conversation.
Please, please, feel free to (respectfully please!) disagree with me, argue with me, whatever. I will respect your opinion and hear you out. I love honest discourse. If I am wrong I will admit it. I am in search of the truth and I am not ashamed to eat a little crow if it means I am informed. However, I will not back down if I don't find your argument convincing.
That does NOT mean we are enemies - it means we agree to disagree. Just in case you were wondering, yes, there is an actual McDonalds product called a McArabia...

Movies:
Engineer's Guide to Cats
I am a cinemas lover. I love all movies, even the horrendously bad ones (they are funnier). I am a GIGANTIC fan of Halloween (the season and the movie, so my genre is generally horror/sci fi).
I saw Cloverfield in the theater four times, and it FUCKING ROCKED!!!
Some of the favorites I hold especially dear in my heart (good and bad): Nine Gates, Frantic, The Crow, Rosemary's Baby, Silence of the Lambs, You've Got Mail, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (original), The Boondock Saints, Fried Green Tomatoes, Practical Magic, The Princess Bride, So I Married An Axe Murderer, Scream, A Few Good Men, Star Wars (4-6, not so much 1-3), Moonstruck, So I Married An Axe Murderer, Highlander (the first one), The Shining, Fight Club, The Dead Zone, The Green Mile, Signs, The Hunt for Red October, Hellraiser(s), Hostel, Natural Born Killers, Still of the Night, and I'll add more when I can think of them...
WARNING!
DO NOT EVER watch "Campfire Stories". It's so bad that even I, a woman who watches horror movies that end up being panned on Mystery Science Theater 3000 , could not watch the whole thing, and I think I might ask for my money back.
DO NOT WATCH IT OR YOUR IQ WILL DROP SHARPLY, AND WITHOUT IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION SUCH A DROP MIGHT BE PERMANENT!

Television:
I'm not going to be coy and say "Oh, I hardly ever watch TV! I'm too busy working on my thesis for organic chemistry."
I do. I love TV. Unfortunately, it's getting harder and harder to find television shows that are intelligent and stimulating. I really don't care about reality TV. Ugh. I want either to learn or to be entertained by shows with real intelligence and good dialogue (or at least a healthy dose of humor and good dialogue). Does that make me a snob?
Mythbusters ; Man Vs. Wild ; Dirty Jobs ; The Daily Show ; The Colbert Report ; Countdown with Keith Olbermann ; The West Wing ; CSI ; House ; Sex and the City ; Millennium ; The 4400 ; Ghost Hunters ; The X-Files ; Buffy the Vampire Slayer ; Law & Order, Special Victims Unit ; Monty Python's Flying Circus; and just about anything on the History or Discovery Channel.
