Sactify THIS New York


My recent Twitterfication has enriched my life greatly. And by enriched I mean taken over. A few gems that I've found, that I would not have known about in lieu of my new social networking medium include.

(John Mayer, it should be noted, takes ample breaks from breaking the hearts of famous women in order to tweet his life away.)
- A notice that Lou Dobbs is 'too soft on immigration' by the radical right:
- Lo Bosworth's post-Thanksgiving return to spinning class.

By far the best thing I've seen in weeks (Twitter or no Twitter) is NY State Senator Diane Savino's address to her senatorial colleagues regarding the Marriage Equality Bill. In 7 minutes, the witty, genuine leader spoke to the inconsistencies among the anti-gay sanctity of marriage arguments, gay rights as a matter of fairness and the troublesome nature of love in general (and the need to embrace love wherever we may find it). I am so proud to be from a nation that has such leadership.


Savino for America!

I have yet to get on Twitter. As I do not post anything on facebook, I feel Twitter would be equally deserted on my part. My true nature remains as a social network stalker. Does Twitter provide such a feature? or is it more obvious when you do so (see: following someone).

SO glad you are writing regularly again, and as always, thanks for previous shout outs!
