Blog for St. Patrick’s Day
One of our long-term, part-time residents is Sharon Wood Wortman. She and her hubbie Ed recently “moved” from a FS cabin on Still Creek to a house in Brightwood. Anyway the Oregonian occasionally runs an article about her. Here’s the link to today’s article http://www.oregonlive.com/hg/index.ssf/2011/03/more_about_sharon_wood_wortman.html
Another issue which we may or may not be sufficiently prepared for is the potential of radioactivity crossing the Pacific Ocean from Japan. George Ure writes an interesting blog about financial survival and other stuff going on. He spends some time on the risks of radiation from Japan in today’s write up - http://urbansurvival.com/week.htm in terms of keeping track of the levels of radioactivity and simple things we can do he has some practical advice. He also includes in the section this sentence, which is immensely thought provoking,: “And it probably pisses off the PowersThatWere to a great extent that community is passing corpgov on any number of intellectual fronts from wikileaks forward.”
Not much Irish related news from Crutcher’s Bench – for it seems that we are much further from Ireland on the “left” coast than the more vibrant ethnic vitality of the “right” coast. However, we have plenty of green all around us – as the moss looks especially healthy. May have a beer or two while watching March Madness unfold on the little screen. But, we’ll jsut have to wait until tomorrow to see Notre Dame play.
