I have 6 gallons of melomel mash sitting in a plastic pail with a plastic airlock, all sitting in a 15 gallon bucket.<br /><br /><br />Dear John,<br /><br />First breast cancer I saw was a pathology sample--it was once attached to a male.<br /><br />If we spend too much time analyzing, the culture can be crushing. <br /><br />Still, if you want to live, live.

The issues are economic, systemic and difficulty. I can't imagine a "Run for the Runs" event. Kids dying from something that feels normal to us just isn't too glamorous. It doesn't fit with wearing red or pink or whatever else is required for "awareness." <br /><br />A second thing I'm reminded of is the reality that breast cancer kills men and most men don't think it's possible because they turned the awareness issue into a pink-oriented concept. <br /><br />All of this to say, true awareness requires analysis and connections and critical thinking -- not propaganda and pink lids on yogurt and a company like Unilever that makes my coffee, peanut butter and shampoo (which makes sense, they must be a chemical company) advertising itself as an eco-friendly and altruistic company because they donate half a cent on each sale of pink peanut butter.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10956056168256756705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4956989639073843954.post-37236485509676195302010-01-16T11:08:03.224-05:002010-01-16T11:08:03.224-05:00I stand and stare into the refrigerator looking at...I stand and stare into the refrigerator looking at all the plastic that holds my food.<br /><br />How will I ever be able to move away from this?<br /><br />All food preparation is in glass, ceramic and steel. Food storage: well, that's something else entirely.Katehttp://tabor330.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
