my political compass (we don’t HAVE a Lord!)

About what I expected: http://www.digitalronin.f2s.com/politicalcompass/questionnaire.pl?page=printable_graph&X=-2.38&Y=-5.54

As usual I’m left but too moderate and pragmatic to be *really* left. And really I want to be left *alone* so I score fairly close to libertarian, although I never thought that was workable, plus the libertarians I’ve known have all just been closet right-wingers.

Hmm hmm, food for thought.

Pleasant day

Spent most of the day hacking on the couch, with the cat asleep against my leg. It almost rained but barely got there for more than a drip.

Tonight for dinner I had a spicy vegetable peanut stirfry that made me very, very happy. I was also very happy to have great conversations with pbd, bruisedhips, nickjb and the gang about a variety of important and unimportant subjects.

Before you judge someone’s opinions, find out the experiences that led to said opinions. That’s today’s free advice.

Also the peanut sauce is: 3 tbsp peanut butter, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 2 tbsp sriracha sauce, 1 tsp soy sauce. Agitate and mix, dump over vegetables in last 5 minutes of stirfrying.

Also, a nice Bonny Doon dry Riesling.

Also, I’m still in love with my new camera. Pics of cute dogs later tonight, or tomorrow.

Also, I’m still eating even more eggplant.
