Let's Roll!

I know it's important to advertise one's business in creative ways, but this idea bothers me for some reason. I guess I shouldn't be squeamish. After all, it certainly worked well for the catalog department of Sears, Roebuck and Co.

Peace As More Than The Absence Of Battle

Marja-Leena Rathje led me to an interesting site on Peaceful Societies. In a world where we hear daily reports of war and other conflicts, it's refreshing to know that some societies don't choose to make societal battling a regular way of life. Peace is usually something most of us see as some elusive factor that can exist only in some future utopian world where nothing goes wrong and everyone is in natural harmony with everyone else. While a utopian world may be out of reach in our current situations, it's still kind of nice to know that there are groups of people out there who see peace as something that is worth attempting to include in everyday life, rather than passing it off to the future. It's a very practical kind of optimism in action that most of us don't really devote much time to.
