how some people think, politics

[Dan Goodman]

Wednesday November 13, 2013 Minnesota Daily story on the Hawaii
legislature passing a bill legalizing same-sex marriage: "Sen. Sam
Slon...said the government should stay out of legislating marriage.

"'People have differences, and you can't legislate morality. You can
try, but you can't do it' ...."

I see an inconsistency there.

***To Waite House for NAPS (Nutritional Assistance for Seniors) food.

And for the twice-monthly produce distribution. Abundant apples,
radishes, and cabbage available.

***Southeast Como neighborhood organization Annual Meeting at Van Cleve
Park. Attendance was light. And only three or four were college age, in
a neighborhood where 52 percent of the population is 18 to 24.

In fiction, political meetings are usually exciting. In real life? File
that trope with "War is fun."

***Comments from: Bonnie Randall Schutzman 11/13: "I think in images and
sounds, but there's also usually a word-based narrative going on."

Carole Zastera Michels 11/13 "Words for me. I asked a friend in Germany
which language he thought in, and he said he didn't think in a language."

Carol Kennedy 11/13 "In something like patterns, but as I have said
before, if one doesn't think in words, it's very hard to describe in
words how one thinks!"

John Shannonhouse 11/13 "I think in processes."

Lee Gold 11/13 "Words
"Memory flashbacks (embedded experiences, which includes all senses)"
