At work-a colleague calls, I walk over to another area and chat-sit down in a meeting room off the reception area

At some nice house. Walking around, hear something outside. Go out and there are pieces of falling airplane flying around us. Some go over, some land short.
So, this is what is new.
Go here and sign this pledge. American Freedom Campaign
Bhutto is freed, Mukasey got confirmed. Iran doesn’t have a nuclear weapons program. Brazil found a lot of oil offshore. Kucinich put up an impeachment resolution for Cheney.

10:45 am-Quick recap. Friday-Lantern Walk, Saturday-shop?, Sunday-church, shop, pool, Monday-work, mom & kids to Long Beach. Go here and sign the pledge. http://www.americanfreedomcampaign.org
3:16 pm-Getting close to the end of the day. Family visited twice, once with lunch. Showed the baby to the boss. Work, not much else. I’m 2 weeks behind on the lib radio. They’re finally getting to the Pakistan stuff and Kucinich’s impeachment resolution. They’re worrying about Bush not letting go of power just prior to the inauguration. My feeling is that if they try it a lot of people will make a lot of noise. We’ll see. Their numbers are so low, and no one will stand for it. Having said that, there are a number of ways that he can engineer something-terrorist attack, disaster, outbreak.

At some ball field. Waiting to play, hanging out. The game starts and the pitcher is having a hard time. One of our team is making fun of him, he leaves the field, I get on the heckler. The coach chooses the players, I’m not one of them, he asks me if I want to leave, I say no. Hang out there.

Sitting at a desk, someone comes in and asks me whether I have the stuff I was going to do for her. I shuffle some papers and show her what I’ve done.
Running around some city streets.

Time to stop Bush
Administrative orders, the Miitary Commissions Act, signing statements, torture, illegal war, renditions, gulags, surveillance, outing covert CIA agents, will this list EVER end?
Read Arthur Silber, Naomi Wolf, John Dean, Greg Palast. Listen to Randi Rhodes, Thom Hartmann, Stephanie Miller (there are others). Vote for Dennis Kucinich, Al Gore, John Edwards.
It’s time for everyone to stand up. If you don’t, you’re going to end up lying down, dead, in prison or one of the complicit. First they came…
And it’s spreading. The Megan Williams case is an example. Katrina, Fox news, etc.
Oh, and Islamofascism isn’t. It’s better called Islamotheocracy. al-Qa-idah and their ilk want a restoration of the Caliphate throughout the Arab Muslim world, and removal of American troops from Muslim holy sites and Saudi Arabia. That’s why a lot of the foreign fighters in Iraq are Saudi.
Fascism is the merging of government and business (Bush’s realm), not government and religion. That’s the domain of the dominionists.

10:43 pm-Time for bed-my eyes ache, which is usually the sign. Not much going on-odd dream this morning, up, to school, t’ai chi-chatty kids, work, new phones, lunch, work, home, baby-kids went to the pool, to bed, yummy dinner, here we are. We need to stop Bush-he’s going to do things by “administrative order”-executive fiat, basically. We have reached a crossing point. My next book to read is by Naomi Wolf about all this. Time to stand up or we’re going to be lost-it probably won’t come quickly, it didn’t in Germany, and Hitler was legitimately elected too. We’ve gotta get out there and march.

5:17 pm-Jam this in before going home. Quiet day-working on an icon-abstract, as usual. Last night-kids to bed, dinner, in bed. Today-to school, work, lunch, etc. Tired, I think it has to do with all the mess in the world. Arthur Silber is great, but depressing.

At work, my boss came in and asked about the stuff he needed to do-I hadn’t done it, was working on a printer, scrambled to make excuses, came back later and my workspace was gone. The guy there said that it was all in the men’s room, and my boss wanted me to go through it. (N.B. This is a bit of an unusual dream for me…I woke up right away. Interesting.)

In a largish house, there’s water leaking from the top floor down in one room. Go down & someone comes to look at it. Go back upstairs to find out where the water is coming from-a pipe is pouring water out. Go outside and walk around, down a path and back again.

5:06 pm-Almost ready to go home. Quietish weekend-TV Friday, TV, storage, then shopping Saturday, Matt was sick Sunday-no church, no TV, Mom & boys swim, pizza, school meeting then work today. Looks like I might have more work.

At college? Walking along some path, going to a martial arts gym class-they’re moving it so we’re walking over to the new place. I walk back and get my scooter, then hurry back across the path.

Climb down from a mountain temple. Walk through a tunnel and stop there.
Anti-what?
Arthur Silber rocks. Yay for the kids in Illinois protesting the war.

4:51 pm-Winding down on Friday. Not much went on this week-little things only-I’m upgrading things and working on my skills. Stiffed is long. Yesterday-work, lunch, work, pick up meds, home, dinner, kids to bed, dinner, TV, bed. Colin woke up upset. Up this morning, to school, passwords, work, lunch, work. I ordered fancy new cellphones for freeee-well, almost free-$40 tax. Also trimmed my phone service. More trimming to come.
