Hampden has a killer Walk Score!

Another reason why I love Hampden-

It's WALKABLE! My address got a 74 out of 100 and I live on the south edge.

Not that I'm always taking advantage of that, of course. But I can. And I am going to even more now that I'm reminded of how lucky that is!

Now it's true, I'm still gonna drive to get groceries (too heavy) and prescriptions (I love my CVS) but I forget sometimes that most things are just so close and I get rushed. But soon my work will be moving to within walking distance and that will be EXCELLENT!

What's your Walk Score?

Where do you fall on The Political Compass™?

Well lookie here! I'm on the left!

In other words, I'm a stinking liberal. No bones about it. Not a big surprise.


Apparently I am somewhere between Ghandi, Nelson Mandela, and the Dalai Lama. Quite flattering, actually.

Is anyone else disturbed that Bush is more "facist" and more "right" than any other current leader?

Take the test for yourself! The Political Compass™
I'm curious to hear how other people do on this test- I get the feeling that many of the bloggers/ twitterfolk I am in touch with are also going to be on the left.

Fashion Can Kill

Bradley Bayou has figured it out. But at what cost? I wish there was a way that men could mentally experience, just for a day, what women go through. The hatred of the body, the shame, the humiliation.

Still, he is trying and did a brave thing. Let's hope it wakes people up.
