The New York Times Magazine published an article, Quiescient Objector, by Troy Melhus. This is the first article I've seen published about conscientious objection. Unfortunately, it's about a man who should have objected during the Gulf War but didn't, instead got out on a medical discharge. I would love to see something about a more current event. Still, it's nice to see some press about it. I wrote them a short note about what I'm doing, reserving my name so I don't get any extra attention. I am so glad to see others who agree with me on a national level.
I'm off to South Dakota to visit my friend Emily tomorrow. Strange, it's going to snow here but not there. I'm missing out again. But I can foresee much fun happening while I'm up there. We might paint a pair of my shoes, hang out with her puppets, see beautiful sunsets, visit all kinds of random places and people. one never knows, but I'm bringing my camera.
Merry Christmas!
