This doesn’t mean it’s all over, but it’s a start.

One of the Jena Six is out on bail.  Keep watching.

Keep praying. Keep fighting for justice.

I’m so new to the blogging world that my shoes are squeaking but my pal Angie gave me some info on a site called ‘Smorty’ that seems worth my time.
Advertisers contact you with paid opportunities and you blog about ‘em. Simple.
Even I can appreciate that.
As you know, I’ve been working my way up to being a paid blogger just to see if it’s worth my while…at least for laundry money, right? Well, this seems like my favorite kinda thing…you know…a win/win sitch.
Imagine getting paid to blog..I’m already gonna be bloggin’ so why not?
So you KNOW I’m gonna get paid to blog and SOON, kids.
They’ve managed to marry the world of advertising with blogging.
For me…this is superb. The advertisers contact you and you can decide if you want to post something about their product or services. I wish Breyer’s Ice Cream would contact me and offer me some samples.
That would be splendid.

My pal Sassy tagged me and I love her so, here goes.

Hey gang!

I have got to share a blog with you because I think it’s awesome.

I really dig the fact that it’s got recipes for beauty products that normally cost a fortune, like skin toners and masks. Sugar scrubs are great for exfoliating and this spot is a wonderful resource.

SO check out : http://healingyourselfnaturally.com/

I think you’ll be glad that you did.

Also added it to my blogroll.

Groovy stuff, that.

I’ve been watching the situation in Darfur a lot recently and while I’m no expert, it seems that it’s not getting much better.

It’s my belief that we are stewards and we’re not doing such a hot job.

Here’s a link to Mia Farrow’s site. I admire her for many reasons, chief among them her commitment to children and to peace.

Take a look; there’s a lot of information about what we can do to help.

You know by now that I’m a bit of a geek (but not any way that is helpful with this blog) so when I came across this article I was flabbergasted because I remembered what I had learned in school so many years ago.

Awww, my brain DOES work.

I meant to blog about this yesterday, but it slipped my mind.

A friend of mine and I were standing outside our favorite watering hole in the West Village. It was dusk, which is my favorite time of day due to the favorable lighting, and we were watching the police’s traffic unit hook up a Jeep to their tow truck. What made it particularly entertaining is that we assumed that the owner of the truck had to have been  an entitled person of means because he/she parked directly next to a fire hydrant. Either that, or they were completely ignorant about parking rules.
The owner of the Jeep parked in front of the very tony workout establishment called ‘Equinox’. Many celebrities in the area work out there. We watch them while eating potato chips or other snacks. I like to have a milkshake if I can afford it. Sometimes we toast them if they catch us gawking. It breaks up the day for us.

Anyway, as we’re making our snarky, witty commentary, who should approach from around the corner but Ethan Hawke. My friend spotted him first.
My friend: Check it out, Ethan Hawke has ice cream all over his face and he just threw the cone away.

Me(turning to look. then laughing): No way!

As Ethan approaches (I am laughing and laughing) my friend says, ‘What’s  wrong, dude? Didn’t like the cone?’

Ethan (making the blech face and wiping his face with his hands):ICK!

The man could have used a good scrubbing. I don’t think  his teeth have seen an abrasive cleanser since the Reagan administration. And the hair. Pulled back into a rat’s nest ponytail. I had never seen one before. (I am amazed. )
He was also wearing orange track pants. Neither my friend nor I enjoyed looking at them. Yep, we made sport of him. That’s our way.

Ethan took it in stride, G-d bless him. He shrugged and went on his messy way, wiping his face with his already sticky hands

You’d think that he’d wash before he goes out in public. He has kids. Lead by example, I say. I hope they don’t smell like urine. Or worse. I’m thinking of sending him a little gift basket when I get the means.

Poor kid. Hope he gets home okay.

If you’re an information junkie like me, the internet is like crack.

Serbian geologists discovered a new mineral. Kryptonite. Yep, Superman’s geological nemesis is right here on planet Earth. It’s not green and it doesn’t emit radiation (although, I’m cool with that bit),but  it matches the description of kryptonite that was printed on a box containing it in the the movie ‘Superman Returns’: sodium lithium boron silicate hydroxide with fluorine.

Pretty neat, huh? I have no idea what that means for humanity, but I’m stoked that if Superman messes with me, I’ve got a defense.

(but I’m not a villain, I am a crime fighter)
