Tuesday's Huffington Post: That one of the conditions
being placed on the Iraqi government by the White
House is that American oil companies be given first
shot at Iraqi oil and be allowed to keep 75 percent of
the profits.
"In the president's proposal, one of the standards
that he's setting for them to meet is that 75 percent
of the oil production goes to U.S. companies," she
said. "This is stunning -- 75 percent of the
production goes to the U.S. Is this what our kids are
over there for?"

in the desert
Searching at 2:30 at Juilliard on the 23rd. If anyone
wants to come please let me know and I'll put you on
the security list.
memory and will have to use my cell phone to figure
out who I am. And I try to imagine what people in my
cell phone would say if I called them and asked them
who I was. I've been thinking about this a lot.
Maybe it will become a play.
I recently put in my parent's phone number into my new
phone under "mom and dad" even though the number has
remained unchanged for all my life and there is no
sane reason for me to have that number programmed into
my phone. I'd like to think that when I get amnesia I
will call them first. Of course they won't be home
and I wouldn't know to call K. I may change her
number in my phone to say girlfriend. If you had
amnesia, would you dial the number programmed into
your phone as significant other or would you assume
it's a business or something?
what is your recurring daydream/fear?

and going to go there tonight and work out for the
first time. They have a pool and a basketball court
and it is only 40 bucks each a month because of her
insurance.
I just have to actually go there. I think I can do
it. It seems like a place I will enjoy going to.
right? I just have to not be so freaking lazy all the
time.

no one else tag me for anything OK?
5 things you may not know about me...hmm...hmm hmmm
hmm hmm
1. I was an Eagle Scout.
2. I once had a job as a deckhand on the CT river. I
had to carry kegs of beer and big bags of trash, throw
the lines on the posts when we docked. I also
sometimes had to steer the boat. They made you buy
their shirt and wear it as a uniform. I was 17 and
was making 5 dollars an hour. The next summer I was a
tour guide at Gillette Castle State Park which is "on"
but not on the CT river.
3. I don't drink coffee or soda.
4. I have a terrible, some might say nonexistent
sense of direction.
5. I am allergic to chicken and turkey. (actually
many of you already know that so I'll do one more)
6. I'm writing a novel. Did I tell you I'm writing a
novel?
I'm writing a novel. slowly.
7. I once had long blue hair. really.
I'm not tagging anyone but feel free to talk about
yourself, everyone.

of motion, and then decision, rather than the other
way around.
In short, the conscious brain was only playing
catch-up to what the unconscious brain was already
doing. The decision to act was an illusion, the monkey
making up a story about what the tiger had already
done."
and
"Dr. Wegner of Harvard said: "We worry that explaining
evil condones it. We have to maintain our outrage at
Hitler. But wouldn't it be nice to have a theory of
evil in advance that could keep him from coming to
power?"
He added, "A system a bit more focused on helping
people change rather than paying them back for what
they've done might be a good thing.""
