September 19, 2013 - I find myself in need of time to air out my brain. After nearly 5 years of writing this blog, it feels as though I've said everything I want to say. While I don't think that's really true, I do think a hiatus is just what the doctor ordered. So I'm going to relax by the fireplace and eat chocolate bon-bon's for awhile. Take time to harass the Republican of your choice, and never give up. If you feel like giving up, follow my example and take a break. It will do you a world of good. - Best, Vicki
December 23, 2013 – Have you heard about The Great March for Climate Action? I just learned about it today. Organizers have determined it will take them 246 days to march from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C. They are looking for 1,000 people – 20 from each state – to participate. The march is stopping in many, many locations along the way so that locals can participate for as little as a day, or as long as they like. The march is Ed Fallon’s brainchild. Ed, along with most of his staff members, is from Iowa, where he served as a state legislator for fourteen years. He currently hosts a radio program called Fallon Forum. Fallon began his career as a social activist coordinating the Iowa section of the Great Peace March in 1986. Ed bases his approach on Great Marches of the past. Women suffragists marched on Washington on March 3, 1913; Gandhi led the Salt March in India on March 12, 1930; Dr. King led the voting rights march from Selma to Montgomery
