Media Watch: Yoko Ono's 100 Acorns is a lot of fun -- highly recommended! (See my list of "Friendly Sites")
So You Think You Can Dance seemed to be about the choreographers and costumers more than the dancers who are being judged for the decisions others make for them. Hmmm -- that's show biz.

A Sample from Yoko Ono's 100 Acorns:

summer

Imagine a dolphin dancing in the sky.
Let it dance with joy.

Think of yourself at the bottom of the ocean
watching.

Imagine a group of dolphins dancing in the sky.
Blow kisses to them
in your mind.

Clinton supports Obama!

Electoral Madness: Barak Obama called out his volunteers to help with sandbagging against high water in Iowa and Illinois while John McCain was cozying up to Texas millionaires, and talking about "September 10 mindsets." Does that mean there's more to life than using wars and disasters to stuff your own pockets? If the National Guard was at full strength instead of standing between various factions of Iraqi militias and Blackwater-style mercenaries, and our infrastructure was properly maintained, many bad things happening in our OWN country wouldn't be as bad.
Support our troops -- bring them home.
