OOOh, fun! Roman villa! And now my brain is going to be up all night trying to figure out how to do this in my place. The middle room? The hall? The library/guest room/currently home to wayward chairs?

I see many of us are thinking @ the elections. Here is a meme that seems to be something we should keep in mind.
I vote in such a way as to contribute to keeping my beloveds, colleagues, communities safe.

Looking forward to the Chicano Park ones and the procession on Wens.

2) Someone's front porch in Barrio Sherman down from my place,

Well, since I have somewhat bludgeoned my lovely OSHER class with the nastiness of Colonialism (499) and its ills, I figure it's time for a little justice and resilience (The Lemon Grove Incident) and this:
Hey, it's October, time to get a little fierce.

I always vote like this. Each AND every time. Chances are very good that a dear neighbor, friend, colleague, collaborator, or partner is at least 2 of these things.
I can do no other and face them on or after voting day.

SO true. I remember talking to the BP once @ MENA OTMS during the Bush era. The GOP was wielding that garbage like a hammer.
