Perusing Events of the Day. and Maintaining a Healthy Perspective. Saturday, February 17, 2007. A little while back, I came across a story about a poll done on the most annoying cliches. A quick google. Turned up this article, on CNN. At the end of the day, it's the most irritating cliche in the English language. That abused and overused phrase has topped a poll to find the most annoying cliche, the Plain English Campaign said Wednesday. But yesterday, while listening to a podcast of Democracy Now! Subsc...

Perusing Events of the Day. and Maintaining a Healthy Perspective. Saturday, December 16, 2006. And from We Were All Children Then. In January of 1970 the Unitarian Universalist Church of Kent called a 21-year-old pre-theology student at Oberlin College, Bill Schulz, to supply our pulpit. That April our young minister organized discussions of "Institutional Commitments – Yes? We’re still all children. We thought we had grown up after Vietnam, after Nicaragua, after Kosovo, yet six years into the 21st cen...

Perusing Events of the Day. and Maintaining a Healthy Perspective. Saturday, February 17, 2007. Here's a thought provoking piece from Sojourners. Do we have any idea what the true cost of our consumption is? Ignorance truly is bliss, as we carelessly drive our economy, the environment, and the living standards of hundreds of thousands of people - including ourselves - right to the brink. What if we had to pay the full cost of a product - any product? My favorite line comes at the end:. The slaveholders o...

Perusing Events of the Day. and Maintaining a Healthy Perspective. Monday, December 18, 2006. Remember prior to the 2000 elections (was it during campaigning? When then Governor Bush said, "I don't have a problem with a dictator, as long as it's me." [followed by his idiotic snicker]. This article in the Associate Press highlights just another in a long string of Bush's illegal, immoral actions as our elected dictator. From Showdown Looms Over Domestic Spying. More than 100 times!

Perusing Events of the Day. and Maintaining a Healthy Perspective. Tuesday, October 10, 2006. A voice crying out in the wilderness. As a critic of the administration, I will be damned if you can get away with calling me the equivalent of a Nazi appeaser," [Keith] Olbermann [of MSNBC's "Countdown"] told The Associated Press. "No one has the right to say that about any free-speaking American in this country.". Why have you chosen to go down in history as the president who made things up? The hell they did.

Perusing Events of the Day. and Maintaining a Healthy Perspective. Friday, December 22, 2006. Rest easy, everyone. There is little to worry about. Forget about the fact that the number of people without health insurance has been climbing for years. Forget about the increasing number of children who are living in poverty. Forget about the continual creep of prices on basic goods like gas and food. Forget about the growing climate crisis and the threat of the next hurricane, forest fire, drought or flood.
