Celebrate Memorial Day at Lukes Wings: Flying families & Lifting spirits.
On this Memorial Day, we reflect on those who sacrificed for this United States of America. And while that is a good thing, what would be even better is to put some money where your mouth is. In fact, my part-time wage slave self just made a small donation of $25.00 USD, because even though the media under reports on the injuries and casualties of the ongoing wars, I know that there are wounded soldiers coming home that could use a little help and support. Luke’s Wings provides families with the means to visit during the service member’s hospitalization and rehabilitation. Continue reading

The New Republican Woman’s Plea
I was just thinking about all the states that have taken advantage of the Republican sweep of state house and senate seats in 2010, to try to ban abortion, contraception, and take away personal choice. Normally, I would have some very specific comments that would decry these new ‘personhood’ laws, and trans-vaginal probes as unconstitutional and heinously evil.
