5. on the radio this morning
i heard the announcement of another soldier killed in Afghanistan. A war plane crashed in Libya. it is somewhat overwhelming. yet somehow the world is going to keep turning. the sun will rise and set, the moon and the tides will maintain their routines. i also just finished "A People's History of the United States" by Howard Zinn. i highly recommend it. it really affords a perspective. the fact is that we've been pretty fucked up for a very long time.
