This morning I decided i would drop into flying apron vegan bakery after grbbing a cup of coffee at stickman (both in Fremont).

I just spent the last few hours working on websites, including this one. My task list was long: Upgrade my drupal site from 4.6.x to 5.7. I am glad to say that this is DONE!

Yesterday I signed a membership agreement with CivicActions,LLC and I am now one of 5 members of the LLC. In addition to me, George Frost, our General Council, is also now a member.

Dan also had a conversation with the organizer of the site and the [l:http://thankyouharrytaylor.blogspot.com/|coordinated actions this Saturday] to the "Thank Harry Taylor" for giving us all voice.

Last night I went to see the Eugene Jarecki documentary "Why We Fight" about America's propensity towards militarization and war. The film was disturbing. People will say it is “over the top” or slander it as “left wing liberal media propaganda”. Those people will continue to ignore the fact that there is something very wrong with a government that spends three quarters of a trillion dollars ($750,000,000,000) on its military each year. Which is more than on all other discretionary spending put together. When we put this into the context of the disaster in the Gulf Coast region, or the failings of our public schools, or the cuts to higher education funding, housing assistance, job training, health care.... well it just makes me want to throw up.
