Let me start this post by apologizing for going AWOL for almost five months. I could tell you about all the changes in my life since that time (graduating from school, going through a long and arduous job hunt, finally landing a job with a steep learning curve, and finding and moving into a new apartment), but that would involve making excuses, which is probably what led me to neglect my blog since late Spring in the first place.
Now that I have high-speed wireless Internet service at my place (another excuse not to blog bites the dust), I will do my utmost to set aside time to write here on a semi-regular (i.e not once every 5-6 months) basis. While I don’t have anything particularly meaty at the moment, here are some issues and questions I’ve been thinking about lately, which means that I may address some of them here in the near-future:
- The American Apparel dilemma, for those looking for sweatshop-free clothing yet aren’t supportive of Dov Charney’s sleazy work environment and anti-unionism.
- Has Michael Moore’s Sicko advanced the health care debate? When will the American public's outrage reach a tipping point?
- Why does the Democratic Party continue to kowtow to Bush and the Republican minority?
- The flap over Barack Obama failing to wear an American flag on his lapel.
- The apology that so many pundits and talking heads owe Al Gore, who has turned out to be right about everything for which he has been ridiculed over the years.
- The African nation of Gabon, a primary source of manganese and one of the most prosperous, and least known, nations in Africa.
Talk to you soon,
SHP
