Despite their good intentions they all seem like Protestant neo puritans whose religion is consumption and whose God is the marketplace. Praise God it is possible to live a life without sin! With slow food and organic clothing and everyone looking really good and just like us and no people who don't understand the true religion and sin by buying things that we don't approve of. <BR/><BR/>Well, as I've often said, the only good thing about yuppies is the food.

Bravo! We HAVE to meet and walk the Mission, sampling pupusas (and whatever else your heart desires) along the way. Just e-mail me because I don't have your phone number. I'd love to bounce my ideas about an essay on Kahlo that I'm writing for my blog off you - plus, it sure beats struggling with my latest painting and dealing with our rather over warm studio.Nancy Ewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12116290968007398337noreply@blogger.com
