re: New York Public Library budget cuts
NYPL budget cuts, you can help!
The New York Public Library is facing budget cuts that will close libraries on some days, cut programs for children, and place other services (like job search resources) at risk. The possible cuts come at a time when library visits are up 12% over last year and people out of work are relying on the library more than ever.
If you are a NYPL user and don’t want services cut, I urge you to write your City Council Member or the Mayor.

deep thought
I thought marriage was supposed to be a “states rights” issue. But now that “out of control legislatures” and wild justices are legalizing all marriages - in their respective states - we now have to do something federally. Geez.
Update: I should clarify. I really really need to get off these stupid “Human Events” and “Redstate.com” email lists. I signed up for them to see what the fringe conservative people were saying about the run-up to the election, and now it’s just more and more over the top crazy. Somehow I got signed up for something called “Expose Obama” too. I can’t even begin to describe what b.s. is in that “mailer.” Yeah, I know I should send it all to my spam folder, but it’s like a trainwreck, and I just can’t help not opening them up and peering into the crazy.
I also get scary emails
