I am exceptionally peeved. It now looks like I probably will not be going to NH.
You heard it here first - if Dean loses the primary, it ain't my fault.

So... I'm going to NH next weekend to canvas for Dean. My fiancee is convinced - for reasons that are unlikely to become clear at the moment - that I'm going to be beating 19 year olds off with a stick. I'm skeptical. Mind you, it's not that she has a problem with it - I just think it's mean to get my hopes up...

What school are you at, anyway?

Good luck with the perfect storm next weekend--you can sleep a lot of people in one car, you know, especially in New Hampshire.
I assume you've seen the pictures of a golden, shirtless young Dean. If only abercrombie had gotten hold of those in time for their catalog.....

So, I "voted" today.
DC has decided to hold an early, non-binding presidential primary in order to call attention to the fact that we don't have Congressional representation. If you're not a DC resident, and *this* is what has gotten your attention, I'll give you a dollar.
I'll grant you, the "Taxation Without Representation" license plates are pretty rad. But I wish Eleanor Holmes-Norton would...

I'm originally from DC and thinking about majoring in international human rights law, but your "makes me happy" was what did it.
I think if the Democrats were beholden to anyone who mattered, things would be different. Ending welfare as we know it? The Defense of Marriage Act? Should I go on?

Galvagin, so far, the best solution for statehood that I've heard would be to annex no. va. A few thousand disenfranchised posh Arlingtonians would bring dc the vote on the double.
Sometimes I agree with mutiny, but then parts of dc look like they've fallen off the face of the earth already....

Galvagin will be unavailable from 12/19/03 - 1/5/04, as he will be having entirely too much sex to check this site regularly. We apologize for the inconvenience.

nice. enjoy.
Alas, my job is also involved with the politics of birth as well as the practicalities. Unfortunately the political climate of birth here in Georgia makes it very difficult to practice midwifery, and/or promote a less interventive birth experience, no matter where one chooses to give birth.

"... against this optimistic view the following darker considerations might be urged. So long as contestant users of any essentially contested concept believe, however deludedly, that their own use of it is the only one that can command honest and informed approval, they are likely to persist in the hope that they will ultimately persuade and convert all their opponents by logical means.

Thanks for the kind words. I'll just have to remeber not to do my next major paper while under the influence of psychotropic drugs.
Seriously though, I could use some help. If I were to send you a draft, would you be willing to take a look?
Now on to a lighter subject. I'm very very interseted in Montreal. There is a reason why I chose it as my game's setting. I've heard great thigns about it, but your the person I know who probablywho seems to know the place best. I'm looking around at places to head after graduation. What do you know about the culture and job market there, what would be like for a , lets just say, 23 year old philosophy and theatre major?

I don't know what it is about the 1-week mark since seeing Melissa. Up to a week, I'm so cool you could keep a slab of beef in me. I'm so hip I have difficulty seeing over my pelvis. I am the master of my domain. I can totally handle the long-distance thing.
But at about a week, my superego decides to go home and...

As far as History goes, I used to read a lot of ancient Greek stuff. I used to read Greek to that end. But that was when I was oh so young. Now, I mainly read about American history. I am endlessly fascinated by the Civil War, the conditions leading up to it, the sort of shocking resolve and sheer will of Lincoln. And I am always interested in the behind the scenes stuff, like just how complicated the revolutionary war was.
But having barely made it through HS, I am strictly and auto-didact. So I read whatever catches my interest. Now, as bad a book as Cryptonomicon was, it has gotten me back into WWII, and I am about to start a book about the German Enigma code.
And as for Strangelove. I watch it once a week. Literally. Do you know the story behind him making that?

I noticed on the boards that you're going to the RNC. What group are you going with? AI? I'd love to be there myself. I have missed out on most of the major protests, including Miami.
The rally tonight was a poster child for the need for outreach.
AI's been focusing on the case of Rebiya Kadeer, an ethnic Uighur human rights activist who's been imprisoned in China since 1999. So, when our folks found out that the premier of China was going to be in town, it was decided that we should have an emergency rally to go yell about...
