Anyway...

Well, I haven't blogged in quite a while, but I hope to change that. I'm going to try and blog about once every couple days at least, even if it's just a short little thingy.
I'm just finishing up The Second American Revolution by John Whitehead for World Views, which is a truly amazing book. I loved it, and it's very eye-opening politically. I highly recommend it to everyone, except possibly by those under the age of 13, as I imagine it would get quite boring within the first two words to youngsters.
Still no snow, much to my chagrin. But I'm planning on going skiing with some men from my church this weekend, and if it's good skiing weather, we'll have snow at the place, so I am looking forward to that.
If any of you have any recommendations for good jazz music (preferably stuff with piano and saxophone), please do pipe up. I'm looking around for some good jazz, but it is really hard to guage music by its cover.
And... My life is pretty routine. Not a whole lot going on apart from school.

I agree with you regarding The Second American Revolution. I was quite surprised by how much I agreed with it given how much I despised Grasping for the Wind, which was also by John Whitehead. There were only a few sections I disagreed with somewhere in chapter nine I think. It was a little hard to read, but I had to do most of it in two days. The cartoons helped get me through it.
