I was pushing for less political stuff, like not
including social and economic justice.   I had the
idea that it would be better to stay neutral, but I
thought better of it now.  

-on the guy thing, sorry if I slipped there- I could
call you a girl too but woman seems more apt.  But
then that sounds weird, like "hey woman" My roomate
says it sounds cool but for some reason it echoes the
prototypical sexist husband "bring me my pipe woman"
in my head.

Anyhow- I'll keep it on the mind woman.   

-Pete
