Mitt Romney won New Hampshire primary decisively, but I’ll let CNN and NPR go through the numbers. I want to talk about his victory speech or at least one part of it. Today we’re faced with the disappointing record of a failed president. -Mitt Romney And his supporters CHEERED. Who cheers for a failed presidency? [...]

In my most political heart, I believe the presidential race should have the two best candidates for the job regardless of their chances of winning. That is the crux of a democracy — not parties but good people running for office. But in my I-really-don’t-want-a-Republican-to-control-the-White-House heart, I don’t want the best Republican to win the [...]

Each year a few days after Christmas, Scott and I sit down and plan our charitable giving. We donate throughout the seasons as people and groups need support, but we also like to end each year by giving thanks for all we have. And we decided a long time ago that the best way to [...]

By now, you’ve read about Kmart. Random people have paid off stranger’s Kmart layaway in time for Christmas. The anonymous generosity is spreading from city to city, but the story that remains with me is of a woman who stood at the layaway line and paid for 50 families, 2 carts worth of toys and [...]

December 1st is World AIDS Day, and while I enjoy giving Richmond a hard time, people in my city came together in a way that made me cry even though I could only share it through this video. RVA Remembers will be a public art installation comprised of 400 individuals holding 400 red umbrellas in [...]

I decide to go to Staples (by myself this time) to get glitter because earlier in the day, my daughter and I went for a walk and found pine cones. I immediately thought of glue and glitter and when I voiced these thoughts aloud, my daughter eyes went GLITTERGLITTERGLITTER all the way home. After much [...]

But if Occupy Wall Street helps more people to understand that while our economy struggles and unemployment remaining high, large corporation and Wall Street profits have grown and grown and grown, I will celebrate them.
