In times of old, The Furies protected Mother Right. If a mother (or any woman) was harmed, The Furies swooped down and took their vengeance. They were one of the last vestiges of a world that existed before the patriarchy. When we feel righteous anger, it is The Furies who are calling out to us to make what is wrong right again.

Kermit Was Wrong: It is Easy Being Green 

Can I live here?

Mario discovered the above article. I'd heard of Grist, but I'd never really looked at it before. I like their slogan: gloom and doom with a sense of humor. Sound like my kind of peeps.

Canada just put half of their northern forests off-limits to logging. At first blush, this looks like an amazing deal. More and more Mario and I are considering moving to Canada. They seem much more progressive in so many areas—and Mario is Canadian. If we find a beautiful place in Canada where pesticides aren't used, we're out of here. I love it here, but I'm tired of fighting the pesticide fight, and I'm tired of dealing with rednecks.

This is one of the reasons Bush has got to go. (Can't the Dems please put up someone who can beat this man in the next election?)
