  1. Went to Kalamazoo last week and got a tentative invitation to visit Siberia next November to discuss the new pedagogy of Orthodox values.
  2. Friday I'll present my theory of why civilizations decline at the International Society for the Comparative Study of Civilizations meeting.
  3. After months parked in front of computer, went walking in Beijing's Purple Bamboo park last week. Just the place for active seniors.
  4. Tomorrow my wife undergoes an operation in a Beijing hospital. I've applied for Chinese visa and should be there in ten days.
  5. Enough of this stimulus package. Take the plunge to a 4-day, 32-hour workweek. Should have done it years ago.
  6. Attended Independence Party committee event. The future of this party may depend on how well the two big parties handle the budget crisis.
  7. No, dummy, it's at http://tinyurl.com/94pgg2

  10. Back from a cruise to Baja California to find cold weather, snow, and inspection orders. Bah humbug!
  11. The election over - got 22,000 votes for Congress - attention turns to housing issues. Basim Sabri spoke at our meeting last night.
  12. 22,000 votes for Congress - Wow! Not bad for an underfunded, politically untalented candidate from a third party.
  13. Attended MPR's contentious Senate debate last night followed by small gathering with noncombatant Dean Barkley at McGovern's pub.
  14. Socialism redux? Barack Obama is called a socialist while the presidential candidate of the real Socialist Party goes on Comedy Central.
  15. Star Tribune picketing is history. Protest event covered by KARE-TV & good discussion with an editor. I'd recommend this to anyone.
  16. Announced on MPR Midday show that I'll be picketing the Star Tribune office tomorrow morning to protest coverage of Congressional campaign.
  17. My former step-daughter, attending school in Cottage Grove, was assigned a report on one of the political candidates. By chance, it was me.
  18. Wife back from China; tomorrow I meet her older sister for the first time.
  19. Last night, participated in the only debate among 5th district (Minnesota) Congressional candidates with live audience. Incumbent not there.
  20. Thought I might run into GOP firebrand Michele Bachmann at Living Word church last night. Did see former U.S. Senator Rudi Boschwitz.
