Kucinich Meetup in Grand Rapids

i'm going to the kucinich meetup in grand rapids tonight. kris is big into kucinich. i'm neutral at this point. the pragmatist in me doesn't think he's electable, despite the fact that some of his positions resonate with me. oh well. it should be interesting to at least get a glimpse of how the political meetup thing works in west michigan.

update:i'm back. although there were only a handful of people there, it was quiet informational since a member of the michigan kucinich grassroots campaign was there from kalamazoo. of course, the issue of his electability came up and i learned a lot. the evidence seems to indicate that it's at least semi-plausable, if one ignores superficial issues such as the fact that he's divorced and is living with his long-time girlfriend. i'm teetering on getting involved in a more direct way, so we'll see what happens over the next few weeks.

“"it is hard to be brave," said piglet, sniffing slightly, "when you're only a Very Small Animal." rabbit, who had begun to write very busily, looked up and said: "it is because you are a very small animal that you will be Useful in the adventure before us."”

[ about ]

this site chronicles the continuing adventures of my son, odin, who was unexpectedly born on the fourth of july at 25 weeks gestation, weighing 1 pound 7 ounces.

he's quite a fighter and you can always send him a postcard to the most current address listed here if you're inspired by his adventures. see the postcard project/google maps mashup to see a map of the postcards.

if you're new, you can browse the archives to catch up. and don't forget to watch a few movies that i made while we were in the neonatal intensive care unit. or if you want the abridged version and you can find a copy, you can read about his adventures in the november 2005 issue of parents magazine.
