The Moving Finger….

The Moving Finger…. Posted in May 15th, 2008 by Technorati Search for: digital cameras in Uncategorized When Hillary Clinton made her gaffe about running the gauntlet of fire in Kosovo, there was a lot of editorial comment in the press about memory and how a person edits it. I got interested in the discussion and went and did some research, culminating in reading a book called White Gloves, How We Create Ourselves Through Memory, by John Kotre. This book turned out to be a bit off the topic I w read

Gay Marriage is Legal in California

California joins Massachusetts. I’ll be interested to read the decision when I get the chance. As for me, let me reiterate my usual point. I am not categorically opposed to gay marriage. However, I think we’re rushing too fast to change human relationships that have been fixed across all human cultures for thousands of years: marriage is between a man and a woman.

It, in fact, will eventually happen here if we elect judges who will be predisposed to this type of mischief. read
