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.

Great Essay: Be Happy 

Journalist Joyce Marcel responds to a letter to the editor written by a Republican who said Republicans just know how to have more fun than others. I'm thinking of Nero here. All these Repulsicans have got their fiddles out and are plucking away, fer sure! Marcel concludes her essay with this lovely vision of the future which would make me very happy (and that's what it's about: me, me, et moi), "Frankly, a little political change and social justice will make a lot of people very, very happy. In fact, when Bush is gone, there will be dancing in the streets."
