03.30.05 AUSTIN, TX—Following a series of embarrassingly backward laws recently enacted in Arizona, Texas governor Rick Perry pledged Wednesday to do everything in his power to reestablish his state as the most regressive in the nation. "I commend Arizona for its commitment to exceedingly draconian social policies, but [Arizona Governor] Jan Brewer should know that we still have some real doozies up our sleeve," said Perry, referring to Arizona's passage of the strictest immigration law in recent U.S. history, as well as its measures allowing concealed weapons to be carried without a permit and banning ethnic studies programs in public schools. "Don't forget, we just put an ultraconservative stamp on our educational curriculum that's going to affect the textbooks the whole country uses, and I'm still the only governor nutso enough to float secession. Mark my words, we'll be back and more fucked up than ever!" Sources close to Perry said that Texas may soon start storing undocumented migrant workers in dog cages while courts decide their immigration status, though Arizona plans to counter with a giant cannon that will be used to shoot anyone with a skin tone darker than ochre who crosses the border

A VERY NICE RIDE plus a bit of politics
For the first time on this trip to Houston I finally got ole Tanya 1 operating well enough to take a real ride//pleased to say memorial park is nice and dry in almost all spots on the trails and it was beautiful! Sorry I did not have camera, a dozen or so kayakers were in /Vuffalo Bayou and it looked as though they were having a blast [have to try that]..Lots of beauty at this time of year in the park just have to go early due to the heat but well worth the trouble..
On the other side of the equation I noticed an awful increase in the number of vacancies in the retail centers which probably had a few employees each, while Houston is not in as bad a shape as much of the country it is becoming evident even here that our economic woes are far from rectified..MANY MAJOR INTERSECTIONS HAD HOMELESS FOLKS WITH SIGNS, one with a nice woman with a child..I rread in the paper that even churches were having a difficult time due to the sharp decrease in tithes and the increased request for assistance....
During these time it would serve us well if we all did what we could not to Judge and to assist where possible//telling who needs the help most is a quandry of course,but I have always felt that giving directly to those you actually meet is much more rewarding karmicaly////MY SPELLING WILL NEVER IMPROVE]
ANYWAY PLEASE
THINK GREEN
BLESSED BE
