Howard tried to use our microwave yesterday and it would not work. So we got up early for us (9:00) this morning. We "abluted" and left the house before 11 and headed for early lunch

They took out the cancer. I thought it was gone but she is at risk. What is next? Clean my carpets. Vote. Thanksgiving. Her birthday. Dan's birthday. His trip here. Life not death. Keep going.

Howard and I went to see the Hulk today. The hulk moved like a person, super-person that is. First hour had little or no action. I am not sure if this is the Comic book character or a new idea of the Hulk. He did not fly but he leaped like he had seven league boots. Allegory: Hulk is terrorism and the establishment fights him with traditional ( Read more... )

The Iraqui desert was very hot and dry, and the sun shone too brightly to look up. Morrisa was wearing her belly dance clothes. We had food, clothes, computers, and money for the victims of the war. We ran from tent to hut, from tent to hut, giving people in long, flowing robes food. The men wore white and had flowing beards The children were ( Read more... )
