Lucky are those who even have an IRA account or a stable job, who aren't news addicts, who aren't asking themselves why they didn't divorce the estranged ghost of their past 10 yrs ago. Intense was the high when General Assembly ended this year, when Obama was elected, when the chalice was surrounded by red flowers. I'd rather be a UU here in a red state than Gaza, for sure.

I met a muslim indian and he never heard of uu until I started emailing about it. So this project got cooked up over the internet to make a difference. Even in Kolkata, they hadn't heard of UU but because we use it for spiritual purposes they are excited to be part of it. Our fellowship needed a way to fund raise. i have taken all photos, taken them to General Assembly, had them sold by UUA bookstore for a while. And they are cool.vintagecarolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11891223455544012376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9864334.post-62887520723442908002008-12-31T21:22:00.000-05:002008-12-31T21:22:00.000-05:00CC -- The statistics you have are different from w...CC -- The statistics you have are different from what I have heard.
