I was stoked today to hear of two little Washington (state) towns in the news on several of my National Public Radio shows. A story from Concrete was used for a quiz question on "Wait, Wait Don't Tell Me" and the other one was from Wenatchee where a guy with the last name of Moron ran his car into something after drinking. Oh WA, how proud I am of you and your little towns!
In other news, if you haven't been following the primaries much, and don't know where to start,
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21116732 has a big, interactive graph of all the remaining candidates and their veiws on big issues, so you can click how much you agree with differnt things, and then see which candidate you match up with best. Pretty cool. So check it out! And Vote!!!!
Another cool article I found, from the New York Times entitled, "Evangelicals a Liberal Can Love" http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/03/opinion/03kristof.html?_r=1&oref=slogin And a couple quotes from it:
"Bleeding-heart liberals could accomplish far more if they reached out to build common cause with bleeding-heart conservatives."
"In parts of Africa where bandits and warlords shoot or rape anything that moves, you often find that the only groups still operating are Doctors Without Borders and religious aid workers: crazy doctors and crazy Christians. In the town of Rutshuru in war-ravaged Congo, I found starving children, raped widows and shellshocked survivors. And there was a determined Catholic nun from Poland, serenely running a church clinic."
So if you fall into the category of "Christian", Be a crazy Christian! In a positive way, not just for the sake of being crazy, just to clarify. And if you are a crazy-anything-else-positive, Be crazy about being positive!
