Welcome to the Brain. This is the place where I spout my opinions about anything that pops into my head. Keep in mind that these are thoughts I've jotted down on the spur of the moment and they don't represent my entire opinion. If you want to comment on any of them, feel free.
I will add new Rants periodically; if you like what you see, check back for more. As new rants are added, the old ones are stacked (that is, oldest at the bottom, most current at the top). And so, without further ado, i present...
Public Schooling
it amazes me what people call an "education".

why i'm afraid to say "i love you" and of love in general

Sparky's quasi-intellectual snarlings about respect between parents and children.
Gender Shmender
my little shpiel on Girl Toys vs. Boy Toys

a rant on Girl Power, that faddish beast. Not about the Spice Girls!
Like Your Body
a letter I posted to tripod's "Body Talk" conference on... well, body image.
Capitalism Sucks
my mutterings about what I think of The System.
Them's fightin' words! Take me to the comment form and I'll give you a piece of my mind.
