I like those days like today, when it's warm in the sun and cool in the shade. Ah, October.
Today I'm wearing a 1-inch button of Barack Obama I bought at a hip hop festival back in 2005, and I remember hoping then that he might run successfully for president...how close we are to that reality!

The other day in an attempt to entertain Hans, I started singing "This Old Man", but I couldn't get through the first verse without laughing. What a ridiculous song, really! And I felt ridiculous singing it.
Anyway...he got a kick out of it. :oD

Here's a question: can there be infinite growth on a finite planet? If not, why do we pretend otherwise?

I know the above question is most marginally related to my outfit, but I've really had a lot on my mind lately regarding our collective future...
