My "I" is constantly changing (perhaps this is merely AD/HD): overdetermined nexus of cultural forces emanating from several continents: skeptical of all Truths and seeker of the truth: iconoclast by enculturation, brain chemistry, and, perhaps, choice: perpetually perplexed, particularly about why we exist/ as the manifestation of overdetermined forces whose existence (and nature) is not as solid (or simplistic) as we would like.

Palin without the "l"?

Okay, those who wrote me about Palin and sent me lots of links to show the woman is nutso. Thank you very much, but I do believe she is likely to be your next vice president. And may therefore become president. Yes, she seems to have some points of view at odds with science (and reality). Yes, she is going to be a very risky choice for someone that high in the national political hierarchy. But unless McCain pulls a George McGovern, she's the Veep candidate. And that vast Fox News America out there isn't going to vote for Barack Obama unless he suddenly morphs into someone more melanin challenged between now and election day. That's just the reality of this country. If I'm wrong, then America has changed more than my 6,000 mile plus trip across the country last summer indicated.*


I'll say one thing, the stock market sure did not cheer her speech.




*But at least McCain has forced the macho Fox News crowd to vote for a woman as VP.
