About Me
- Name: Snave
- Location: La Grande, Oregon, United States
I am a native eastern Oregonian, and have lived here 50 of my 62 years. I left at 20, but was back by age 32 to be near my parents to help them in times of need. I don't fit in politically here because I view things from a decidedly left wing perspective... but that's o.k. because I love the people, I love the area and for the most part I like living here. I enjoy family time, listening to music, reading books, traveling, bird watching, hiking, backpacking, watching movies, keeping up on politics, watching sports, sitting at the computer so much I get sores on my ass, and playing music... if you need a band for your party or celebration, let me know; I play keyboards and sing for a rock and roll band, and we do mostly "classic rock". (I also like to play guitar and bass and other instruments, but those are for my private enjoyment only!) I am mainly an agnostic/skeptic, but would consider myself spiritual. I work in schools and in clinical settings as a speech/language therapist. It is enjoyable work and it pays some of the bills. I have a rather unpredictable sense of humor, which can get me in trouble at times, but hey, is life worth living without laughter? I think not!

You are not just a True American, you are a Truly Great American! Thanks!
Heh! Here is some more level-headedness for you:
Saying something is "interesting" doesn't necessarily mean I have "devolved". I won't say I fully believe what Ms. posted, but I certainly think it's a possibility. I don't believe all the votes were properly counted in 2000, and I don't know why the GOP wouldn't have tried something goofy again this time around. There were enough irregularities with the electronic ballots that I found myself wondering, as many others have.
The level of paranoia I would label "black helicopter" stuff is like what conservatives have been telling us about the United Nations for years. Jim Morrison is alive and working for the CIA, aliens are living among us, etc.? THOSE things are what I would call "silly black-helicopter / tin-foil hat theories"! Although recently I have started to think that things like Al Qaeda having ties to Iraq prior to 9-11, and Iraq still having WMDs after 9-11... COULD fit into that category... except that too many Americans believe those things are true... sigh...
I think that depending on where you are coming from, this stuff is all relative. Please, be careful about labeling opinions that don't align with your views as "silly black-helicopter / tin-foil hat theories", or suggesting some of us are undergoing a sort of de-evolution because we don't agree with you. By saying this, you are suggesting YOU may well be the pinnacle of evolution! Be careful, now! 8-)>
