Alex, I sure needed to see that right now. People who think outside the box. Us. For weeks I had been telling myself to tone down, to not send letters to those who do an outstanding job. To not be silly and smile when I feel like it and other people wonder, what SHE'S on? To not be such an activist and care about some things more intensely than others. To not say what's on my mind instead of the usual mundane that everyone expects. To dumb down and not talk on a higher level. All these things and more.
And then today, I said to hell with all that. I am going to be who I am and not try to be someone else or what someone else expects me to be. I sent a letter. I am an activist. I say what I mean, even when it's taken the wrong way.I care for the environment. I have an opinion. I am smart. Sometimes a smart ass.
Thanx for posting that. I don't watch too much t.v.

aw, because I was standing on my soapbox and did a mini speech(c above) and maybe I should've had my little speech somewhere else. I really liked that commercial though, it about made me cry.
