Deep End of the Gene Pool: May 2009
http://deependofthegenepool.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Deep End of the Gene Pool. Saturday, May 9, 2009. I mentioned in my last post that I'd had a visceral negative reaction to Sedona - undeniably one of the most beautiful places on earth - which surprised and dismayed me. I had a vague sense that I was offended by the opulence and pseudo-spiritualism of the place, but that didn't completely explain my snarky attitude which, I've come to understand, usually masks a deeper response to perceived injustice or dashed hopes. Myself, I do not have the courage or ...

Deep End of the Gene Pool: Eduardo Galeano: Is justice right side up?
http://deependofthegenepool.blogspot.com/2009/08/eduardo-galeano-flies-that-keep-buzzing.html
Deep End of the Gene Pool. Wednesday, August 19, 2009. Eduardo Galeano: Is justice right side up? I Hate to Bother You. I’d like to share with you some questions–some flies that keep buzzing in my head. Is justice right side up? Has world justice been frozen in an upside-down position? The shoe-thrower of Iraq, the man who hurled his shoes at Bush, was condemned to three years in prison. Doesn’t he deserve, instead, a medal? Who is the terrorist? The hurler of shoes or their recipient? Is it because in t...

Deep End of the Gene Pool: Wounded Knee remembered
http://deependofthegenepool.blogspot.com/2010/12/wounded-knee-remembered.html
Deep End of the Gene Pool. Wednesday, December 29, 2010. It was the fourth day after Christmas in the Year of Our Lord 1890. When the first torn and bleeding bodies were carried into the candlelit church, those who were conscious could see Christmas greenery hanging from the open rafters. Across the chancel front above the pulpit was strung a crudely lettered banner: PEACE ON EARTH, GOOD WILL TO MEN. From Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee. Posted by Marie Walden.

Deep End of the Gene Pool: 'Twas the Night Before Christmas, Hemingway style
http://deependofthegenepool.blogspot.com/2010/12/twas-night-before-christmas-hemingway.html
Deep End of the Gene Pool. Friday, December 24, 2010. Twas the Night Before Christmas, Hemingway style. It was the night before Christmas. The house was very quiet. No creatures were stirring in the house. There weren't even any mice stirring. The stockings had been hung carefully by the chimney. The children hoped that Saint Nicholas would come and fill them. Father," the children said. There was no answer. He's there, all right, they thought. Father," they said, and banged on their beds. No," I said.

Deep End of the Gene Pool. Sunday, October 11, 2009. Used to market Levi's! Come my tan-faced children,. Follow well in order, get your weapons ready,. Have you your pistols? Have you your sharp-edged axes? For we cannot tarry here,. We must march my darlings, we must bear the brunt of danger,. We the youthful sinewy races, all the rest on us depend,. O you youths, Western youths,. So impatient, full of action, full of manly pride and friendship,. Have the elder races halted? All the past we leave behind,.

http://deependofthegenepool.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Deep End of the Gene Pool. Tuesday, April 28, 2009. Do you have an uneasy sense that someone's trying to pull the wool over your eyes? Does the hullabaloo over a looming swine flu pandemic seem a bit overblown? The World Health Organization (WHO) has raised the pandemic alert level. A 6-point scale) to 4 and is considering moving it to 5 today, with only 7 confirmed deaths worldwide!

Deep End of the Gene Pool. Thursday, November 26, 2009. In praise of turkeys. Ben Franklin in a letter to his daughter. Posted by Marie Walden. Monday, November 16, 2009. I am the autumnal sun. Sometimes a mortal feels in himself Nature. Not his Father but his Mother stirs. Within him, and he becomes immortal with her. Immortality. From time to time she claims. Kindredship with us, and some globule. From her veins steals up into our own. I am the autumnal sun,. With autumn gales my race is run;.
