Midnight Musings of Diamond Lil

We survived the Holidays, and are now on the far side of New Years! It was all very good, and we are most grateful for all the good things that have happened to us, and don't even mind the various oddities and weirdness that occurred. Our store is still jam packed with cool stuff - and we have some great concerts coming up... something to look forward to in the coming weeks (to wipe out the hell that was the days following Xmas were NOTHING went as planned ;->


The tragedy of the Tsunami eats at me. I am giving money through my church as the Methodists have very good programs in place for mobilizing and getting aid to disaster areas. Forget anything Bush says (don't let him take any credit for your generousity) but donate where you think it will do the most good, because quite obviously we as a country are not going to do anything - ergo it is up to each of us as individuals to come forward and prove that we are indeed a global community and we take care of each other! We ARE our brothers' keepers!


I vote we take ALL the money that is going to be spent on the Inaguration and send it to the tsumani survivors instead. or... tone the celebration down to hamburgers, hot dogs and clothes you already have in your closet and send the money you saved to those folks. Ah well... it's a thought!
