Tuesday, Sep 11 2007 - Fear and its Consequences
View GLENNBR's food & exercise for this day
On this 6th anniversary of 9/11 I give you a quote from Michelle Obama which pretty much sums up my feelings:
I am tired of living in a country where every decision that we have made over the last ten years wasn't for something, but it was because people told us we had to fear something. We had to fear people who looked different from us, fear people who believed in things that were different from us; fear of one another right here in our own back yards - I am so tired of fear and I don't want my girls to live in a country, in a world, based on fear.

I spent the day with Rufus Wainwright singing "Going to a Town" over and over again in my head.
"I'm going to a town that has already been burnt down
I'm going to a place that has already been disgraced
I'm gonna see some folks who have already been let down
I'm so tired of you, America."
