I think this partially stems from my accidentally flawed first time posting. Look, I really don't give a damn what some egghead, david brooks (intentionally not capitalized) type, asshole says about my stuff. But honestly, it would be more beneficial to receive supportive criticism, which I did, than this other from of a more derisive type.
I have always wanted to write but these are my first forays and support is nurturing like the kind people that came to lend there support after I questioned my Senators. People like that keep you coming back. My grammatical structure has always been weak but my vocabulary extremely strong featuring a predilection for run on sentences. Also, I am now 32 and feel like my memory is slipping somewhat ( Yikes) which doesn't necessarily help. And just for the record, I do have 2 years of college, though not for writing.
My point is this. I have 2 beautiful kids that I love and care for and I want a better future for them. I am committing myself to trying to educate people with the ideas and ideals of true democracy. I climb mountains, harass my local editor, coach my sons team, blog, go to meetings, take my kids to the doctor, worry about the Congo, or Chechenya, or was it Detroit, rock the mic to my Senators, sell glass bubblers on dead tour, think about nano- tech, watch a Vikings game, school fools at hoops, SUPPORT DEAN, make stir- fry, all while impending doom looms like dark clouds on the horizon. I am bold when many are silent, and I want to share that. I try to combine intellectual- political ranting with street sensibility to make points. LIKE MINDED LEFTYS NEED TO UNITE! I will continue to blog in my available time and hope that we can form co-operative, supportive networks to bolster our cause. The future is dark. We need to work together. SUPPORT UNITY OR EAT A BOWL OF.......!
