Frack me! Has it been a whole month since I posted?
I've been having health problems of my own lately as well as taking care of my mother...and the dog ate my homework...but I think the main reason is the outrage overload that I've been suffering whenever I read the news.
People get blown up every day in Iraq (and elsewhere); Bush declares that he's not required to follow the law, Congress agrees; abortion is banned; global warming reaches the tipping point. What the hell can you say about any of this? My outrage alert level is stuck at orange. In Afghanistan they want to kill a man for converting to Christianity. What values can I possibly share with people who feel this way? Are we devolving?
It's not that I don't care anymore. Maybe I've just used up all the adjectives.
(OK, that's just an excuse...more later.)
