Lenawee Peacemakers

Here's a link to a group in Michigan called the Lenawee Peacemakers. Among other things, they are trying to put a full page ad in the newspaper which will detail how the US could have better spent the money that is currently being spent on the Iraq War.

If you want to contribute your name with a minimum donation of $10 to cover the cost of the ad, click the links on the left hand side of their page. You can also view the ad there.

The address is:

Lenawee Peacemakers
P.O. Box 894
Adrian, MI 49221

Busy and/or Lazy

Lately I've been busy and/or lazy about posting, but I hope to continue writing posts for this blog.

Today I sat at home and was REALLY lazy. I watched the 2002 movie version of "Siddhartha" based on the book by Hermann Hesse. It was good--much like I remember the book. I got three movies on vhs from the large collection of classic movies at the public library, where movies are FREE! I should give credit, however, to Mandi for actually spotting "Siddhartha" on the shelf.

Anyway, I've been working on finishing up a short story and also finding a new job, so those things have kept me busy. Don't ask how many hours I've actually worked on the story--mostly I've been sharpening pencils and setting aside blocks of time to work instead of actually getting anything done.

I did spend a few hours stylizing this-here web page though. What do you think of the changes? Too busy? Or does it work?

Here's a link to a spot where I posted some pictures: http://lukes-scraps.blogspot.com/
