These still sounds good a couple years later

"To all my nonbelieving, sort-of-believing, and used-to-be-believing friends: I feel like I should begin with a confession. I am sorry that so often the biggest obstacle to God has been Christians. Christians who have had so much to say with our mouths and so little to show with our lives. I am sorry that so often we have forgotten the Christ of our Christianity.

I want to invite you to consider that maybe the televangelists and street preachers are wrong — and that God really is love. Maybe the fruits of the Spirit really are beautiful things like peace, patience, kindness, joy, love, goodness, and not the ugly things that have come to characterize religion, or politics, for that matter. (If there is anything I have learned from liberals and conservatives, it's that you can have great answers and still be mean... and that just as important as being right is being nice.)
I love these old cartoons
Ok, this is Gaga before she adopted that persona. The judges compared her voice to Norah Jones. Think of the persona along the lines of Ziggy Stardust
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_gaga
"At age 11, she was set to join Juilliard School in Manhattan,[5] but instead attended Convent of the Sacred Heart, a private Roman Catholic school.[6] Playing piano by ear from the age of 4, she went on to write her first piano ballad at 13 and began performing at open mike nights by age 14.[7]
At age 17, she gained early admission to the New York University's Tisch School of the Arts. There, she studied music and improved her songwriting skills by composing essays and analytical papers focusing on topics such as art, religion and socio-political order.[7][8] She later withdrew from the school to focus on her musical career.[9]"
Gaga, just her and a piano.
Dear AMA's
How long would your show be if you only let live acts perform? Is this a dance show or about the fucking music? Kelly Clarkson went up without a horde of dancers to hide behind and kept my attention. I felt apathy towards Janet, Alicia, Shakira and Carrie. And usually at least two of those are always good.
I felt a little embarassed for J.Lo, the song was weak, the "skit" around it even more so and then ABC edited her fall. Not a stellar night.
And wotshername, Rhianna, ugh. If you have to spend 90 seconds on a video to set up your performance which was disjointed and confusing, then you have more pressing things to worry about. Could this be payback for openly mocking Britney's sad performance last year?
Adam Lambert closed the show. Now I like Adam, he's beautiful, has a great voice. I was excited to see what he can do left to his own devices. He gave us a basic song about rebellion, he's sexual, got it, he's bi, got it, likes freaky things, check. Don't care really but I guess making a big statement about could clear up any doubts someone might have ( no asexual lifestyle like Seacrest is stuck in and no AI producers to rein him in).
I do have to say that I feel like I just watched him grope and feel up all his dancers and band. They weren't shy about it either. I had to watch it 3 or 4 times just to make sure I caught it all ;-p

Maybe it's a "the book is different from the move" thing, but please, think about the images and the concepts that media is exposing you and your daughter too. Stalking and domestic abuse should never be equated to love. Adults can tell the difference between fantasy and reality but too often kids cant.

walkyrja for the link!)torrain:There's a sad story in from the Ottawa Humane Society.
100 Huskies rescued, 30 of which are pregnant. The dogs are unvaccinated and the females need to go to home immediately so they can give birth in safe conditions.
The dogs need homes immediately, and the Humane Society isn't a no-kill shelter.
Even if you can't take the dogs, please engage in signal boosting and forward the cbc article to a few friends with houses who might have the time to help.

I keep getting multiple hits from someone in NY.
Think about it, you get two whole years to enjoy the heck out of your life.
No worries about saving for your kid's college fund, go take 'em on a vacation and live in the moment! Drop gas prices and let us use it all up, since the world is ending ;-)
Um, I just got tag-teamed by Oshun/Oshun/Oshun and Freya/Freya/Freya in 3 different people.
Including an email out of the blue that was actually continuing part of the conversation that was happening in person with 2 other people at that time.
Right, stop worrying. Only ... Easier said than done.
I was just telling E about how it was easier for me to view things in Black & White or as Faust taught me, binary. A thing either is going to happen or it won't, you can't react until something happens.
If I can just breathe . . .

Every time I forget my value my friends and family are quick to remind me . . .
I mean, the opening of the condensed milk can _doesn't_ look rusty. But it makes me worry.
But! I did just have a fun tetnus shot 11 months ago
Ok, clearly this is a new habit I've taken to. I like it, it's easy, I get a treat at home, etc, etc
So maybe I should figure out a better way to deal with the condensed milk, plastic squirty bottle maybe. Now to figure out how to get the whole lid off of one of these tiny cans (why so small!?!)
Hey, I do know where the bandaids are ...

much nicer to be self-contained, just ... not really possible
Fever Ray - Keep the Streets Empty for Me.
Lyrics:
Memory comes when memory's old
I am never the first to know
Following the stream up North
Where do people like us float
There is room in my lap
For bruises, asses, handclaps
I will never disappear
For forever, I'll be here
Whispering
Morning, keep the streets empty for me
Morning, keep the streets empty for me
I'm laying down, eating snow
My fur is hot, my tongue is cold
On a bed of spider web
I think of how to change myself
A lot of hope in a one man tent
There's no room for innocence
Take me home before the storm
Velvet mites will keep us warm
Whispering
Morning, keep the streets empty for me
Uncover our heads and reveal our souls
We were hungry before we were born
An Exercise in Faith
