The latest Organic Style features a cool article on biodynamic wines, with a focus on our friends at Robert Sinskey (that’s where Deb works). Yay!

Stomachache Time Again
My brother Carl sent me the URL of Theocracy Watch. I guess being informed is our best defense… Still it makes me feel pretty scared in a tummy-twisting kind of way.
The Ghost of Election Day Past
I’ve been doing searches on where we were 4 years ago, just a few days before the election. I remembered polls showed the election was close. What I didn’t remember was that Bush had 47%, Gore had just 43%, and Nader had 5% (link). Despite those numbers, the election was too close to call, and Gore (despite this interesting curio of an article) won the popular vote.
The most recent Reuters/Zogby poll has Kerry up by one point. That actually looks a LOT better than last election. Cross your fingers, pray, whatever. And go Packers!!!
Why We Should Dread Scott
Interesting (and utterly convincing) article from Slate.com on the real reason Bush said he wouldn’t appoint a judge who condoned the Dred Scott decision. Turns out it was “an invisible high-five to the Christian right.”
I’m even scareder now than I was before…
Attack of the Space Virgin
You may already know this, but in a move designed to make me (and you?) ever-so-slightly giddy, Paul Allen (SpaceShipOne) and Richard Branson (Virgin Airways) have decided to join forces and get a space tourism business up and running by 2007. It’s only $198,600 a pop for a three-hour tour, so start saving (Oh, yeah, there’s going to be a space hotel, too)! Check out the Virgin Galactic site — fun!
