"We've seen the hard left turn right"

After 9-11-01 when we got the Patriot Act, all the liberals I knew said "it's gonna be used against us, against innocent citizens". All the conservatives I knew said "pshaw, it will never be used against citizens, it's to catch the bad guys". I said whatever side you're on now, one day you'll wake up on the wrong side, with new people in power that you don't trust the way you trust those who hold power now, but this new unconstitutional power given to government, to disappear people, arrest them without charges, hold them indefinitely without trial, will still be in place to come after you, and it will be too late to change your position.

Now we're full circle. Conservatives are perceived as enemies of the state, as painted by the media and both the left/right in our government.

Disclaimer: I have not tried this.

If you already gave away the green 'maters, no harm no foul, but I think you can pierce them and float in boiling water a minute to make the skins come off easily, then grind them up with hot peppers, salt and garlic, strain off the excess liquid, to make salsa for your Mexican dishes. Then can it like you do your tomatoes. Green tomatoes are not the same as tomatillos, but to me they taste like them.

Word "my"

Someone on a podcast I was listening to described this song as describing exactly what the world is going through now, how we've been turned inside out, how we've learned not to love, to live in fear, and how we've been bought and sold without being informed of it.

While my guitar gently weeps
-George Harrison
