A story about marisnichols

I met Maris when she was teaching at Harvard, I believe it was. She was a friend of an old and dear roommate.
A great and good soul…

The last time I saw Jim Wallis

I was attending a conference of Spiritual Progressives in DC, when Jim showed up and wowed us with glimpses of the future we are creating. A great spirit and communiator…

A story about John Edwards

I first met John Edwards when he came to Concord and had private counsel with a handful of bloggers. He is the real deal. By his conscious labors and high ideals, he has earned the stewardship of the White House.

Godspeed!

A story about Dave Beckwith

woo hoo, I’m now between Al Franken and Kurt Vonnegut… not bad… Plus, he is from North Carolina – us alternative, liberal Southerners have to stick together don’t we?

A story about Desmond Tutu

I got to see the venerable Bishop Tutu when he came to speak at Harvard, whose policies, at the time were supportive of apartheid. It was an interesting time in that quite a number of students and activists set up shanty shacks on Harvard Yard to protest Harvard’s position.

The school finally divested, largely, I suspect, from the embarrassment caused by the protests, and Bishops Tutu’s impassioned words and deeds.

A question I have about Jade Anderson

When will Jade be playing in, or near North Carolina? I know Jon has some connection with North Carolina through Opio, (no, not Opie) and I would love to see him again, perhaps with Jade, and so I would assume she would know that her amazing family is always welcome, and requested.

Come on down!
