My moment of Zen each morning is when, while walking to class, I step on one of these berries that litter the sidewalk.  The crunching sound and feeling is uncharacteristically visceral.

Dan Manning is running for KS State Rep in Wichita. Dan is a West Point graduate who served for 8 years in the US Army before being discharged under “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.” Dan received a death threat today because of his sexual orientation.
You know, does any serious person, anybody who claims to be a serious person, still credit this argument? Have we not gotten away from the notion that all African Americans are responsible for what any African American does? This is a standard not applied to any other group in this society except, perhaps, Muslims. Are white people, random white people, called to account for what the cast of the Jersey Shore does? Are white people saying, ‘Well, their kids can get over-tan, drink too much, and act ridiculous because of the cast of Jersey Shore?’

In what other area in life is she taking direction from black comics on HBO? So, the notion that they are dictating the culture and that they set the cultural terms, for particularly a conservative is so ridiculous that it is striking to me that a person making that argument is not laughed out of the room.

Michel Martin (NPR) on Dr. Laura’s point that some African American (“comics on HBO”) use the n-word, so why can’t a white person?

Suave, smooth, fluid

As I sit here, having finished a paper for class and not needing it until tomorrow morning, I could either e-mail it to myself, load it on my desktop computer, and then print it off.  Or, more conveniently, with two Macs that just work and a Brother printer that just works, I don’t have to worry about it.  I can just set it up from here, no hassle, it’s printed off, and now I can pass out after a long day and pick the paper up as I walk out the door tomorrow.

This is what it is to be a smooth operator.  I continually fail to understand - and seek to help - others who haven’t opted for a low-hassle environment as they integrate and operate with technology.

Arrogantly superior?  Yes, please.  And, more sincerely, sorry.  :-(
