Buzzwords: Green and Eco

For shallow reasons like stereotyping and ignorant associations, I've never really paid much attention to this type of thinking, philosophy, or movement. Sure these issues are real, but are they as important as national defense, health, education? The more I think about it, the more I realize how much I still need to learn. Gore's masterful documentary was a great place to start, but I need to ask more questions; I need to dig deeper. As "Eco" and "Green" (it you take the time to watch, pay attention to Tommy's balance between Eco-friendly and Capitalism: his drive is inspiring) become the new buzzwords, naturally, I grow skeptical.

...not sure where my vote will go in November, but I'm so proud of our country for stepping up to the plate to push Obama past HRC.

...Spring Training is almost here; time to move past the congressional hearings and play ball.

...Scrabulous got old fast.

...FINALLY accepted my brother's invitation to go to yoga with him this Sunday--actually looking forward to it.

Momentum

Tonight, we take our country back. While I don't believe the democratic nominee will be decided tonight, I do believe Obama will grab the momentum needed to win. In May, I wrote about leadership; today I am convinced we now have a candidate who can lead our country through what is proving to be a trying time in our history; we now have a candidate who represents everything that I believe our country needs.
