There were three reasons why I rode my bike to work this morning:

I’m trying to be more environmental
Save gas money
Get exercise

My point is, I didn’t have to. I easily could have driven in comfort in my mom’s Mercedes, catching up on the day’s news with the air conditioning going. Instead, there I was, sweating my [...]

Two recent articles from the Washington Post that I attempt to tie together but really just think are worth reading.

Note: the pictures on this post were taken by Rishi. He’s a great local photographer and his site is worth checking out.

I thought this article was interesting and loosely related to our discussion on moral relativism versus moral absolutism.

This would be funny if it wasn’t so tragically ironic. The exact order of CNN headlines the other day:
” Police: Nine killed in Moscow subway blast
16 killed in Israel bus bombings |  Video
Iraqi militants: 12 hostages killed |  Video
Bush says U.S. will win terror war |  Video
