Went for a little drive today before going to Walmart for groceries and TP. Pearl has it easy just poopin in her diapers, we need the TP. I guess though if we had diapers someone would have to change them... Walmart was as fun as always, lots of interesting people to look at. Pearl got a little grumpy, but a pack of straws made that all better.

I don't want to get political on this blog, as it is a blog about being a daddy. I guess though my political views shape my being a daddy a little bit. So I want to share an email I got today. It is an open letter to President Elect Obama by Jello Biafra. Jello was the lead singer of a politically charged punk band in the 80's called The Dead Kennedys (for those who don't know). Aside from my parents Jello Biafra was a big influence on my political views, other influences include Emma Goldman, Karl Marx, and a few others. Anyway, it's kind of a long letter so I posted it elsewhere, you can find it over HERE...

Here is a nice poem that Pearl's Bumpa wrote...
