The Stabilizer

Here's the deal. I tend to blog about my life. The woeful state of poor ole me. Oy, I've been known to say. Can you believe the blow I've been dealt?

But things are okay right now. Life is fine. Dad is home and feeling fine and Mia is doing great. And so I've got to use my powers for good not evil. For a change.

A friend just sent me this link. It is Arab-American Psychologist Wafa Sultan on Al-Jazeera TV and wow, this chick brings down the house. She essentially takes Muslims to task for creating a culture clash and illustrates  how other religions took a more peaceful approach to protest and civil/social change. It is powerful shit.

It heartens me that there are such smart people out there and I hope that she is heard. Perhaps voices such as hers will balance the inane and banal that keeps coming out of Washington. Doubtful, but we can keep hoping.
