others' answers. She wrote 5 new ones!

1. What are you grateful for from 2022?
- Graduated nursing school.
- Daughter, Evy, roommate, inlaws, parents,
Bugz, church, classmates, AA.
- Stable housing, hot water, food stamps,
Medicaid, decent job, dependable little
stick-shift hatchback car.
- Creek, trails, sidewalks in my town.
2. Has the internet changed the way you think?
I'm a '90s kid; internet influenced how I
think. I made an Angelfire webpage for my
'zine in 1998. Stayed part of a circle of
conflict medics almost 20 yrs via listserv.
Found good community on sdf and via gopher.
3. What do you believe is true though you can't
prove it?
- Too much of anything's bad for you.
- Kids in big houses don't play outside be-
cause it's too far.
- There's enough for everybody to live well.
- Rich people aren't happy, they're trapped.
4. What have you changed your mind about and why?
I couldn't understand what made the 1992-95
Bosnian War happen til cables from Canadian
peacekeepers were declassified last year. I
learned about US sabotage of peace talks and
escalation by international mujahideen.
5. What would you like to return to?
I just returned to reading C. Vann Woodward's
(1951) Origins of the New South, a masterwork
that demands time & attention. Started 2nd
chapter last night!
I want to get back to bicycling & working on/
riding my motorcycle.
I want to get a little hot violence back in
my life; my libido's starting to return.
Things to love in life:
1. A job well done.
2. Fresh-baked sourdough bread.
3. Clean kitchen.
4. Long walk adventure.
5. Being a regular somewhere.
