Over at YouTube, here’s a great Dove video, “Evolution,” on a subject I hate thinking about: the false standards of beauty constantly marketed to all of us and especially girls and women. (YouTube doesn’t support WordPress blogging yet and I can only figure out how to just link to it. Sorry.)

Denver Election Commission goofs and all, I just fnished filling out my mail-in ballot, sealed the envelope and put gobs more postage on it than it needs.
It supposedly needs 87 cents postage. I slapped on three first-class stamps, 39 cents each. I don’t keep different-denomination stamps on hand, only first-class ones. I rarely mail anything heavier than one ounce unless it’s a package or priority mail – and I take those to the post office counter anyway. If I tried keeping a bunch of different-denomination stamps around I’d just lose ‘em, and end up wasting the money I spent on them.
What’s up with the little “I Voted” sticker? We get those when we vote in person so we can wear them on our lapels. Now there’s one on the instruction sheet for the mail-in ballots – WITH INSTRUCTIONS to peel it off, no less. Oh, pleeeeze . . .
