This is an article out of the new issue of Time, and it brings up some really great points. What do you all think?

RE: How Americans Are Living Dangerously


I'll just say that I like a certain level of anarchy / pandemonium in my life, as the challenge makes life worth living.

I spent early yesterday afternoon with three guys on flooded class 5 river with a few huge logs. A skirt implosion and / or a swim would have been hella messed up...... but it was really fun.

I could careless about the bird flu, drunk drivers, natural disasters, maniacs, serial killers, etc, however, I would  like to see the neocons and their false war on terrorism vanquished from this planet.

i kinda skimmed it, but i certanly didn't see any mention of how the media outlets love to exploit Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt when it comes to attention-getting but highly unlikely risks. [:-] What's the word i'm looking for here?

What's dangerous? Freedom to be and or choose your leaders.

Never underestimate the power of stupid people in mass numbers.
