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.

Betwixt 

Got home after midnight last night. We have a reading in St. John's (Portland) tonight, and I'm trying to get ready for that, so I'm not really here here.

A couple of things: In Canada, the liberals managed to hang on to power—barely. This could be a good sign for us and our elections.

You all know the U.S. has turned Iraq back to the Iraqis. Uh-huh. Is Iraq in the hands of a former terrorist now?

The Republicans are now foaming at the mouth as they fear their imminent loss of power. Here's a piece on what they're doing; the article also has some good info you can use to quote to your friends and family who are still deluded about Bush.

You've all seen Tom DeLay, House Majority Leader, and I bet you shivered, didn't you? He has creeped me out forever (or thereabouts). This author thinks she knows why.

Memo? What memo? The lawyer who wrote the memo on torture (that it just might be OK for the U.S. to torture) is now a U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals judge. Hmmmm.

Gotta go. Catch you , later, gator.
