After eleven, Tuesday night before thanksgiving…

or ‘steaksgiving’ as Chris N. used to proclaim.
What ever floats your boat, as long as you do it with gratitude, I say.
Certainly plenty to be thankful for this year. I’ve been going through a few of my pics from this past year with Boo, and with pushing pics from my cell phone into my Picasa work stream – wow, we did have a great year.

Yet, with too much NPR being listened too by me, I have much trepidation about where in all that’s good we’re running headlong towards.
Our friend Frech Alex has been part of Occupy Cal, keeping the protest spirit going at Berkeley –

I dig the ‘money can’t speak … but it can shut the other person up’ sign top right…

As I’ve spoken before in my blathers, I’m concerned that today’s America is on the brink of self-destruction due to greedy stupid people – the last time there were such protests that captured the general public we were sending 18 year old boys to challenge fate in southeast Asia, and picked them via a lottery!! Got under the skin of the ‘youth generation’ then – but from what I can piece together there wasn’t much fear in the economy crumbling – be it staying at war, or coming home defeated… not a history buff, so I could be off there.

Probably my angst comes from the ‘what the hell can I do?’ position – sadly I don’t see a big play that fixes or changes things. Ugh.

Thanks goodness I have blue to help me sort these things out –

Dig the old timey effect!

Hey – did I tell you? Boo and I had the most excellent adventure last Saturday! First we nibbled with amigas at Rick’s Diner – hashbrown caserole – involves delicious cheese! Then as the amigas went on their way, we headed off to take in ART!!!!
IN A GARDEN!!!!!
yup – we’re classy like that.
