i love this post!! I once was an outie....been an innie for the last 11 years with no regrets. I am very blessed to have a husband that had an innie growing up, so the decision was easy. The next best thing after getting a big hug and an 'i love you mom' from my 14, 13 and 8 years old boys is them telling me how thankful they are that i have been able to be home with/for them.

well my life has not been a bed of roses either but its like Peter said where else could I go.. I would rather love God dispite this life then feel I am encouraging people not to believe.. We must endure to the end..UMM endure what? Its different for all.. Read the book of Job unbelievable.. God wont let you go even if you want to.. you will see that whether this life is long, short, great, or it sucks, it will end for us all and those who remain faithfull will be rewarded.. Lets hope.. God can be so tough sometimes..

To pump or not to pump? This issue makes me wonder about a couple of things:

1) Isn't there a very strong possibility that this TOXIC water is seeping into the ground and contaminating the ground water of surrounding areas?

2) If/when they actually begin pumping out the toxic water, what are they going to do with it? Dump it in another mine shaft? Pay a treatment facility ungodly sums of money to clean it? Dump it further down stream?

I like it! You and Lyd always seem to make the most out of any situation. We can learn a lot from you guys.

Ordinary... such a funny thing. Some of the best moments in my life came from simple, ordinary things. I'm not sure why. Maybe the expectations were lower. Maybe the element of surprise actually gripped me.

Vacationing in Jesup. There's always the exhilarating trip to Wal-Mart. Maybe a sub at Larry's. Followed with an ice cream from Sonic. Oh... what about the park by Diary Queen. That's pretty tranquil.

Whatever you do... Enjoy! You deserve the break. Make some kids or something for crying out loud!

Re: Freeganism: What Do You Think?

Bo — Wed, 08 Aug 2007 15:42:00 -0000

Russ, great post! How does Relevant find such interesting articles?

One, I agree with the protest of such waste by our supermarkets and stores. Is this a simple organizational problem? How do we not have government issued policy concerning this type of behavior? Wouldn't it be a pretty simple route to navigate? We could do so much more with just a bit of effort and concern.

Two, I applaud these guys for living this way. Like you, I wonder what they are doing with the remainder of their stash. What are they investing in? Could they use this money to raise awareness for the poor? Could they be instrumental in change?

Three, I say be more responsible with what you buy. Maybe if we quit filling our shelves with unneeded food, the stores would take some responsibility with the extra volume. We can still go and purchase food to give away at any time. But let's give the good, fresh stuff. The stuff we'd want. Not just the out of date items.

My thoughts!

Re: Leadership Summit -Session 2 [Carly Fiorina]

Bo — Fri, 17 Aug 2007 10:01:00 -0000

As usual, great post!

Here's what jumped out for me. The radicals and pioneers in our present culture face a growing trend. At every turn we will be invited, almost even tempted, to calm down. We will be shown another way. A way resistant to change. A way driven by selfishness and greed.

However, we've been primed to step up and let our voices be heard. We've been asked to lead. We've been asked to risk it.

Like Fiorina, we will be loved by some, hated by others, and misunderstood by many. It may even cost us our "jobs." Are we willing to blaze this trail? I think we are. I'm ready! How bout you?

Flake sounds like a pretty cool dude. The fact that he's a spiritual and political leader of a community speaks volumes. That's a fine tight-rope act if I've ever seen one!

Like you, I'd love to hear a little more of his journey and the journey of his community in Queens. Maybe we should put him on a 3-way call. Why not?

Re: Back in the Saddle

Bo — Wed, 22 Aug 2007 13:04:00 -0000

Hey bud!

Personally, I like where Porter is coming from. It is important for us to hear from all different perspectives. Even more important, is the asking and answering of the tough questions in society.

The questions that Porter raised are community changing. It's important for us to wrestle with these kinds of things both personally and collectively. It's a "both and." What can I do? What can we do together?

I loved this statement, "The answers to these questions will determine HOW we serve our communities." What is effective in Valdosta may not be effective in Toronto.

What is beneficial and enriching to our local communities may look vastly different. However, a smile looks the same in every nation and in every language. Let that be our marker... to put a smile on every face in the community!

Re: Last Leadership Summit Debrief [Bill Hybels]

Bo — Wed, 29 Aug 2007 15:07:00 -0000

Great post!

With a broad stroke, I think God has gifted us all, first and foremost, for people. He has given us the unique skill sets and talents for others to take part in and enjoy. I think this is universal when talking about spiritual gifts.

Personally, with a much smaller stroke, I believe God has gifted me with leadership to inspire, encourage, and intrigue various communities of people. As you know, I have a fascination with the underdog of society.

To see hope, love, identity, significance come back to someone's eyes is truly amazing. To think that God used me to help instill this at some point in the journey is absolutely fascinating!

Then to talk about destiny and dreams... well that's just my element!

Re: Taking care of one’s own

Bo — Wed, 15 Dec 2004 19:06:00 -0000

Agreed. Except, of course, we have known all along you need to know someone to get a job. I think the "belly-aching" from (mostly Sang. Co.) Repubs right now is the blantant disregard for who is being let go and what their job is at an Agency. I do not have any problem what-so-ever with a new administration making changes in policy making positions, and filling vacant jobs with people who are qualified (or maybe not!) because of their alignment with the administration. What I do take issue with is how the administration is laying people off simply because of their political affliation, or better yet, because of a ballot they take in the primary. People who are the nuts and bolts of Agencies, not policy making positions. Thompson, Edgar, and Ryan administrations did not all get along, and there were lines drawn between the camps. When one administration came in, so did their people, but they didn't "clean house" the way Blago is doing. People were re-assigned, but had jobs because they were qualified. The state is a mess today because it is TOP heavy with out-of-state (and I would hope Rich agrees with me on this point) people in policy making positions, who may be good people and qualified (but usually are not), but have no idea what is going on in an Agency. All the people who used to run the Agencies have been let go when they could have merely been "re-assigned" to help with the transition. And, in a earth-shattering move to save money, let's lay off all the middle managers and clerical staff who keep the Agencies running from day to day, but keep high salaried administration staff...It isn't a dirty little secret. But I will give you this much...Irv is that old man on front porch who is always yelling at the kids to keep the ball out of his yard...his time is done. There are better ways to get his point across. Especially when his daughter-in-law is getting favors from the Repub heavy Sang. Co. Board.

You are a Sang. Co. Dem? I couldn't tell. Good luck with your therepy. It appears you have some deeply seeded issues with the politics of the area. If you play nice, everyone gets a job (if qualified and have the proper string(s) to pull), no matter what your political affliation.

Thanks for your asute view, Rhodes, er, I mean, Anonymous.

Seems to be a daily saga these days in the Governor's Office. I tend to believe it has everything to do with the kiddies behind the scenes. I think you have a great thing going with the "faux" conversation on the 16th floor. So much so, think about penning a short play, a comedy for sure! The material the Gov's puts out for us struggling writers is like giving candy to a baby.

Re: Tinfoil time

Okay, but check this out. The Governor has given quite a bit of lip service to the Maytag situation, trying to be the White Knight who rides into town to keep these laid off workers spirits up. Obviously, by his actions, he could care less about the state workers he lays off, or offer those laid off workers an opportunity to seek new job skills...but he is more than happy to play to the non-governmental workers and their pain. But this is why, he remains, Blagonnamakemepuke.

Not trying to sound redundant to all the press we read on a daily basis, but am I alone in thinking this "campaign contribution for access" issue is so obviously true? Not defending the man, but it is all legal (the way the Governor's office went about the appointments, unless there are some recordings or e-mails somewhere), but so not ethical. And this is the guy who pushed for all these ethical rules to be passed and implemented. And the very company that developed the ethics test (what a joke that test is) is connected to the Governor's campaign war chest as well!

Hey Rich, the Trib picked up on "because it never was one" campaign promise as well. Him saying that...it is almost comical and says a lot about him, as well as those who he has watching out for him.

Re: Question of the day

Bo — Thu, 17 Mar 2005 12:13:00 -0000

To me, it is all about leverage. Both parties can use it to some degree. It seems the animosity can develop from one single issue and the snowball effect is one party doing what they can derail a timely session. Finger pointing ensues, etc...you know the rest. To the question, I believe that session WILL go overtime. How much over (is that part of the question)? End of June. I do not believe they will get into the headache of passing bills to appropriate money for a month at a time (FY06 begins July 1). There are some very contentious issues this session (gambling expansion, gun control, and of course the budget and who gets what piece of the pie). And with elections around the corner, look for each party to try and target seats/Reps' votes on particular issues.

Happy St. Pats Day!

Re: Question of the day

Buck, you are correct. It is impossible to call an election this far away (ask Rod Blaojevich!). But it is important for JBT to get her ankles in the water. I think it is unfortunate that the ILGOP cannot quickly rally behind a candidate. Rod's warchest is just plain silly huge.

I hope JBT can show her stuff and make it through the primary. I might suggest she look at some of the things Rod did during his primary run. He suckered me in to voting for him, working for him, going door-2-door for him. I let him touch my kid! He "had" that quality...but not any more.

JBT has to maintain that "I would invite her to dinner at my house" quality that Rod had just 3 short years ago. That's how Bush won, and that is how she can win.

Yes, I think someone can challenge Hynes. However, I think Hynes learned from the Senate race that nothing is a given in politics.

But, ya just never know...I am little surprised I haven't heard anything (in the news, anyway) about any possible challengers.

Re: Breaking news

Bo — Wed, 13 Apr 2005 19:13:00 -0000

You know, from what I've read, and following the argument laid out by the ACLJ, it seems the Gov's order is flawed (legally). I think if the Court takes this up they will side with the ACLJ's contention the order is in contradiction of the state's Illinois Health Care Right of Conscience Act. At least, that is how I interpret the act as it pertains to this argument. What I haven't read is what happened that prompted the Gov to issue this order with such pomp and circumstance? I know he loves this kind of easy press, but was it *really* necessary? And where is that video game bill? Has that made it to his desk? If so, he will have another court challenge to defend. Is this really a good way to spend taxpayer money? On fringe issues that seem to get more press (and blog conversation) than a Michael Jackson trial?

People in JBT's camp tell me they are less than enthusiastic about the bad weather heading IL's way.

Is it just me, or does it seem like this primary election doesn't hold the "excitement" of the one held four years ago?

The past four years have been pretty scandalous, despite there being nothing illegal proved. Are a majority of Illinoisans just plain bored with the political scene these days? Maybe "resigned" to the fact that despite every politician's pledge to "shake things up" is nothing more than a sound bite to favor their position?

People, I have become apathetic to the primary election.

Re: Question of the day

The RRS is only telling us what we know already: a majority of folks just don't care about politics these days. Negative ads, millions of dollars in specials interests being thrown at candidates and corruption at what seems like every level of government is just turning people away.

That being said, I think it is wrong for a paper to encourage apathetic people to stay home. Voting is the only way to let allow your voice to be heard. We've all heard of moments in history where single votes have changed the course of politics.

Whether you like it or not, voting is a privilege not held by others in numerous other countries. We should value our right to vote, educate ourselves about candidates and let our voice be heard via the ballot box.

I think it depends on the person's fear (or lack of fear) of the idea of death. And then there's also people who might be labeled "control freaks" who cannot abide the thought of being a vegetable, and so they opt for comfort measures only. And then there are those who are totally suspicious of the medical community in general, and are afraid of being erroneously under-treated (leading to death) or of being erroneous over-treated (leading to the doctor acquiring a Mercedes Benz...)

You are correct---everything was different thirty years ago. Now, patients are jaded by a system which is definitely broken. And as a burnt out ER RN, I have my own complaints. I quit working last year---and admitted defeat at the hands of a system which drained every single drop of sanity I had in my body. I passed the baton....

Wow--snow in Loo-see-ana? That is a big deal. We've got it on the ground here in Kansas, too, but that's normal for here.

You mean it's NOT "douche"???? Oh, say it isn't so! In our family, the cuprit of all wrongdoings was "Pete Snicklefritz"---and I have no idea what song he was in.

Oh yeah---my Mom thought that the lyrics to the Stylistics' "You're My Everything" was "You're My Pizza Pie"...go figure..

I'll never forget the day an ER doc said to me: "Nurse Bo, you're so good that I'm surprised you didn't go to medical school!"

I replied: "Why thank you. And Doc, you're so good that I've always been surprised that you didn't go to nursing school!"

That's why I don't watch ANY medical shows. (I did have a delectable MD in a clean utility room in the hospital once.....)

Thanks for a moment of Hopper, a great commentary on society in this photo, and your admission of Flickr-itis, now cured. I do not get why the flickr thing is pervasive, but I know many who try to get explored. I'd rather not be noticed. Who has time to do all that for an explore notice. I can see why you've moved on.
