Mike when I am more awake will respond more to your remarks about dad's story...
thanks so much though..very touched.
I agree with what you have said about Iraq... all of it... well said...
My parents were divorced and I grew up with my grandparents who were democrats..
Dad was a republican but he would be shocked, devastated, and angered by these people running the country.. from Agnew on he was greatly disillusioned... we never spoke of Nixon and watergate..
More later and thanks for the cosmic hug.
On another note.. I have not been lucky enough to hike to the place in that photo of Mt Shuksan ... so that is a dream photo for me!
It is a well loved and very frequently photographed mountain. I have some other images I will send later.
Thanks again for your words.

Mike,
I came DOWN with something on Friday -- nothing serious, mind you, and it caused me to be off Gather for the weekend. I'm off on a shopping spree for a little bit, but when I return -- should we resume or no? But definitely, about that tattoo . . .

I wrote an article on cosmology called the Via Galactica. You might find it of interest.
Have stuff on Egypt too, ancient world and more.

Very interesting profile. Origins of the universe are the thing of interest. Egyptian idea of the place of the first time.
Have you been to the Olympic National Forest? you must have. Two hours drive from where I live. There is almost nothing on this page I am not interested in and in tune with.
great profile.
