The Legal Alien: January 2005
http://thelegalalien.blogspot.com/2005_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 17, 2005. Thank you for viewing my blog. I set it up a month ago, but, with my computer skills being at best rudumentary, hit some problems and put it aside for some time. I am back now and will post regularly. About myself: I am a homeschooling mother of two young children (the 'hippie' type, not the 'fundie' type - if you know what I mean :), who is also working on starting her own business. I am originally from Russia, married to an American; currently we live in the USA. Russian books...

The Legal Alien: August 2005

Tuesday, August 23, 2005. Most Wanted: reckless driver in a red pickup. I am in a particularly vindictive modd today, and want to recount the details of a car accident we were in in May. It goes to illustrate the point that following rules and being careful is not enough, you also have to always watch out for the other jerk. Now, here is why I can't get this out of my mind:. I would have dearly loved to find him and rip him to pieces. And if you ever see a big bright red pickup truck (a GM brand more lik...

The Legal Alien: March 2005
http://thelegalalien.blogspot.com/2005_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 31, 2005. I apologize for neglecting my blog in the past two or three weeks (gee, has it been THAT long? I have been selling some stuff on eBay. And let me tell you, whoever says eBay is easy money, is WRONG. I go to bed at 3 am, and had my first square meal in two weeks today. This should be over soon, until the next opportunity presents itself. Still, it's worth it; may be I can finally buy books that I want, and fix my car. Posted by The Legal Alien @ 11:21 PM.

The Legal Alien: November 2005
http://thelegalalien.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 19, 2005. Beyond having cake and eating it. I have been wrecking my brains over how radical unschoolers approaches the common parental challenges (sweets, TV -videogames, etc), with complete lack or restrictions. I am beginning to think that this reflects a certain underlying basic belief that it a foundation of a whole unschooling philosophy. I am not sure whether I can put my finger on it, but I’ll try. Rousseau compared a child to a savage, who at the time of Enlightement was viewed...

Sunday, December 10, 2006. Colin Wilson qrites in "A Criminal History Of Mankind":. Dominance is a subject of enormous interest to biologists and zoologists because the percentage of dominant animals - or human beings - seems to be amazingly constant. [.] biological studies have confirmed [. that .] for some odd reason, precisely five per cent - one in twenty - of any animal group are dominant - have leadership qualities." [.]. This animal connection is very interesting. There are several theories that h...

The Legal Alien: January 2006
http://thelegalalien.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 24, 2006. I was a teenager when perestroika hit my native country, Soviet Union. First came a flood of long supressed historical facts, and the so-called 'reevaluation of values'. All of a sudden, building the bright future was no longer a lofty goal; everyone looked back and was horrified at the price of the country's accoomplishments during the past 70 years. If you think this can't happen here, think again. In her book The language Police. Yacht (banned as elitist), p. 183. Included a...
