I'm Speechless

I have to admit, with the Occupy Wall Street movement gaining momentum day by day, and with the looming economic disaster that seems to be gripping much of Europe, which will surely spell doom for the anemic U.S. economy, I'm finding it difficult to find things to write about. I mean, the post I'd been working on, about abstinence-only sex-ed in Mississippi, hardly seems important in our current context. So, I've been silent for a couple of weeks.

I am cheering for the Occupy Wall Street people. I think they are fighting for a just cause and they are in the right place, Wall Street, the ground zero of our economic woes. I don't know if it will continue to gain momentum or fizzle out, but I know what I'd like to see. I'd like to see social justice and real change in the way we do things in the United States. I'd like to see the robber-barons get their comeuppance.

Wait and see. We live in interesting times.
