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.

Don't Let Ashcroft Find Out 

This Sunday someone hooded a sculpture in Seattle, making it a vivid reminder of the abused prisoners in Iraq. I heard someone took the hoods off later, but the article has a photograph, so you can see what it looked like. It is a powerful statement. Don't cha just luv art?

In a daze. Haven't slept much for a few days. Saw Kerry and Howard Dean yesterday at a rally in Portland. I'll write about it later.

A friend of mine just send me a bunch of jokes. You know the kind. I can tell I'm in a sleep-deprived frame of mind. I just kept giggling when I read one of the jokes she sent: "I gave up jogging for my health when my thighs kept rubbing together and
setting my pantyhose on fire."

Speaking of fire, Michael Moore's movie Fahrenheit 9/11 did well at Cannes. I hope this means we'll get to see the movie this summer.

Ta!
