Memorial Day 2008

Another Memorial day with far too many soldiers to remember. One thing to remember about the War of Iraq even though we might not like the idea or want our people in there, we should not condemn the soldiers fighting and that have died there. They volunteered under conditions that made them think they were defending our country against those that hated us and had attacked us.

If we want to condemn someone it should be the politicians that sold us out with things like the "Patriot Act" and giving Bush and Cheney the power to attack Iraq. The image of Bush receiving the information of the bombing of the Twin Towers in that class room and then just sitting there not doing anything for the longest time. I've always wondered if he didn't already know it was going to happen and that he could just chill out and read the children a book while three thousand people died.

So while I'm against the war I'm not making the mistake of blaming the soldiers for the war.
Even though some may have joined for economic reason they are all there to defend our freedoms. They are doing what they think is the right thing and are sacrificing life; limb and in some cases their minds for the America the free.

So it is up to us the electorate to make sure their sacrifice is not in vain. We need to get out there and hold the politicians accountable and let them know we are not going to put up with any more abrogation of our freedoms and rights. So not only Vote but ask questions; write your Congressperson and Senator let them know you are paying attention and that you want something done now.

Out on the water

I finally got my kayak out on the water this weekend. Once in the Hood Canal and again off the dock in Allyn. the Hood canal trip was from Potlatch to the Skohomish river outlet About two miles on the road not sure how far I paddled but for the first time out this year I was wiped out by the time I got back to the car. It took me awhile to be able to load the kayak on the rack. I like Potlatch they have a hose and cold shower to rinse off in. I had a seal bark at me while I was on the canal he was behind me so I couldn't turn to see him or her.

The Allan put in spot didn't seem as nice, the tide was out and I had to fight the wind coming back. The waves were high enough that I didn't want to have them catch me wrong so I had to paddle into the wind till I got past the dock then quickly turn around and run with the waves back to the dock. I didn't see any place to wash up though there was a bathroom there. The only thing of note on the Allyn run was the oyster workers loading up their barge with sacks of oysters and hauling them back to the dock.

That I managed to take two trips with out rolling the kayak was pretty good since it been awhile. The second time out my arms where starting to get used to the stroke. If I can get out there every weekemd I should be ready for an over night paddle in the San Jaun's by August.

Parasites of the Internet

Parasites of the Internet
My Internet provider sucks the SPAM protector doesn't block hardly anything. It might be tied to a mistake I made when I first got Online. I clicked on a link to make money by filing out Online surveys. They where just advertisements for various businesses striving to sell you anything and everything. I remember clicking on pages and pages of offers. Until I selected a couple that didn't look like I would be paying for something like Higher education ads. So now I get SPAM to sign up from every Online college out there.
What really bothers me is they have sold my e-mail address to everyone from rent designer bags to Military discounts. Trust me I'm not gay even if I was I wouldn't carry a designer bag or female nor have I been in the military at least not this life time. Another one that bugs me is SPAM from Christian dating services. I have never indicated on the couple of dating sites that I have signed up for that I'm Christian, one site I indicated that I was spiritual but not religious because that was as close as I could get to my spiritual leaning. Apparently that was close enough for the Christian dating services.
Some of the SPAM is related to my age like glucose meters and selling my home. It all is insidious and very irritating I mark it as SPAM but it comes back up like a bad meal. It is no mystery why Yahoo is struggling because these businesses are not profiting from sending the SPAM to me and Yahoo is not making itself useful to me, they are losing both ways. Not that I think it would be any better if it was linked to Microsoft, if anything it might be worse for us the poor consumers of the Internet.
As we struggle to make a connection or garner some useful information never knowing when we will step in to the land mine of unwanted e-mail, it's time to eradicate the vermin. A curse or pox on all that would flood our e-mail boxes with unwanted missives. May all that they send out come back at them threefold. May their e-mail boxes become plugged full with every email they send to someone that didn't ask for it or have need of it. I'll have to work on a mirror spell and be a lot more careful when doing my research. Especially when the site says it's free, hah! What a joke.

Grey skies in May

Here it is the tenth of May and I awaken to grey skies again. I pray that the sun will burn through and shine down on us here in the Northwest. The lialac bush is in bloom even though this day is filled with gloom. I guess I'll go out in the kayak anyway I've got a wet suit now so it won't matter that much if it rains. Since we are seventy percent water guess we here in the northwest get to be in touch with our water nature. So come all you mudpuppies crawl out from your mushrooms and let's get out on the Sound.

Recently viewed a great anime film by Hayo Miyazaki called called Spirited Away. I highly recommend it, even though the heroine is only ten it's a good story and the art is beautiful. The deity forms where quite delightful. The analogy of the river spirit was a telling statement on the state of our enviroment and how we dump every thing in to our rivers expecting them to carry it away never thinking how it effects them our how they might feel about it.

I call on all of you to do your part to make this a better world for the childern since we are borrowing this earth from them.

Conjuring summer in

It's the Eve before Beltane the first day of celtic summer so I lit a bel fire and lept over it and raised a glass of wine for the coming of the summer being sure to share a little with mother earth. I also came across a very good video on you tube about Beltane here is the link: http://youtube.com/watch?v=8MmiIwshdk8 I highly recommend it, along with dancing and drumming summer in.

May day I intend to bike into Tumwater from the Kalmiche Park and Ride about fourteen miles and if I'm not hurting to bad I'll ride back too. it will give me a good start on the bike contest I signed up for in the month of May.
