Do Super PAC's Make Anyone Else Cringe?

I may have mentioned my recent road trip and getting to listen to some great radio that normally, I can't devote listening time to.  And I caught a great piece on NPR about Super PAC's.

Many moderate politicians from all parties tend to agree that the 2010 Supreme Court ruling was by far the worst decision by individuals who seem clueless about campaigns. 

7 Top Reasons to Love Windshield Time

Oh, how I miss windshield time.  Even though I will insist that I do not miss traveling for work and glad to never see certain stretches of road again, I DO miss it.  I loved traveling all over Nebraska, talking with people, seeing what was going on their communities, and then taking that back with me when I went home.

I got a little taste of it last week after making a 4 hour trip west for a Connecting Young Nebraskans workshop.

Here are my top reasons for loving windshield time:

6 Tips for Dealing with Emotional Vampires

It's Monday.

You're settling in, assessing the situation, getting a handle or ready to tackle the day.

If you work in an office setting you're furiously digging out your inbox from the weekend.  

And then it begins.

Emotional Vampires (aka Time Vampires, Pigeons or Pot Stirrers) stop by, call and do whatever they can do to drag you into their drama and get out of their own work.

Sometimes, it's work-related, sometimes it's personal, sometimes it's personal but masked with their response to work and you have no idea what you are dealing with...Bottom Line.

How do you NOT spend your day putting out fires or taking on their sense of urgency when there is none?

Traditional Non-Traditionalism

I think that Traditional Non-Traditionalist sums me up in a nut shell.  

I truly take comfort in traditions and certain ways of doing things because generations of my family have done it that way.  I also find value in traditional ways of doing things that we've forgotten about in our modern world.  I spent most of my adolescence and young adult life bucking the system, rejecting the status quo and defying authority. But, I didn't realize that by doing this, I was also rejecting part of who I was, which is why I kept searching for more.
