Thanksgiving

Giving Thanks...

Today, I'd like to thank the 250 or so regular readers of this site. Most of you have been with us from the beginning and we here at Zombie Politics are most grateful.

I receive several emails a week but I thought it most appropriate to share this recent note today from regular reader Ahn Hui (who gave his kind permission to publish).

Mark, I know that over the years you've been slapped around on here for your posts about gun violence. I want to say I, for one, am grateful for what you share and for the questions you pose. We must be the change we wish to see in the world. Those of us with compassionate hearts and insightful minds have to get the culture to turn the corner on gun violence. The only way to do that is to get people talking. Reason will ultimately prevail. 

When we can get the American people to understand that firearms, particularily handguns and automatic weapons are the security blankets of cowards, not the ultimate trump card they think, then we can make some progress towards a more peaceful and worthwhile future for us all.

Amen.

Giving Thanks

I am thankful for...

My beautiful children who amaze me every day...
My wife who gets better and better looking as she gets older (love that bubble butt:))
My students who hit me with a metaphorical shovel to the head on a consistent basis...
My family who, despite all the crabbiness, are damn fine people to spend a life with...
My friends who make me laugh...
Comic books which stoke my inner geek...
Music which soothes my soul in ways that nothing else can...

And finally, the American people, for not believing the lies and electing the right man for president!
