Sorry...it's been a while. But a bunch of things have conspired against me posting...like this virus of death I seem to have. Whatever this biological weapon is that's been going around has officially run its course...because I'm usually the last to get anything. So now that I have it, it's over...being the center of the universe that I am.

So, in between my bouts of delirium, a small bunch of people brought up the idea of me running for local office again...as a democrat. Of course I'd rather turn tricks at the bus station. The closest I'm coming to that is to try to get in the dem primary as a registered green. And it wouldn't be me alone, it would be a slate of two other trouble makers to be named and me. I doubt it's going to happen, at least from my end. If they get 100 people in a room that say they'll help campaign...I'd give it serious thought. Meanwhile, I'll just continue my internet courtship of right-wing bimbo, Ann Coulter.

What a long, strange trip it's been...the more I've gotten involved in other people's worlds, the more I want to stay home. It's been facinating from a sociological standpoint, but having to deal with other people's self-interests, biases, personal histories, and such has really been a hassle. People seem to trust me, which is great, but that means I get to hear everyone's opinions about other people and groups. It's not a lot of fun. And now that I'm trying to affect change by letting others lead...I'm trying to bring people and groups together that should be working together but have apprearently screwed each other in the past.

It's like the old Chris Rock joke..."Who's more racist, black people or white people? Black people, you know why? Cuz black people hate black people, too." OK, that's a bit out of context, but it sure feels that way in some of these meetings.
