OWS is on the street in Rockaway, bringing supplies where the Red Cross can't: [link]
Pretty impressive grassroots organizing, and check out the discussion in the comments.
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Wow. According to the latest numbers, my parents' town is 90% without power. It was 80% a few days ago. Apparently repairing the lines ended up cutting off power to a few more people.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'm looking at the website of the Republican candidate for governor, and he has nothing at all about social issues. This seems suspicious.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh lord -- ours turns off after I swear five minutes. MAYBE ten, but it shuts off on me all the damn time.

Can sugar free hot cocoa mix o bad? It's a little off tasting but I can't tell if that's from SF, staleness, or bad.

Go OWS!
48 muffins done (blueberry and orange-cranberry, from a mix! Sadly, because my muffins aren't all that [not a euphemism]), a double batch of really homemade chocolate chip in progress. I'm thinking apple-ginger bread to round it off for the night.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
The fats can probably go rancid but I would think it would take quite a while given preservatives.
and he has nothing at all about social issues. This seems suspicious.
More than just a little.
Apparently repairing the lines ended up cutting off power to a few more people.
It doesn't surprise me but I hope more people have power soon. Power companies have some flaws but getting people their electricity back after an outage tends to be number one on their list and they are amazing in their efficiency in the midst of troubles.
