Sunday Morning Quote

I tore myself away from the safe comfort of certainties through my love for truth - and truth rewarded me. - Simone de Beauvoir

Former Democratic Party activist. I'm a liberal with a capital L, but I'm no longer buying what the Democratic Party is selling. I live on 5 acres of sand and sagebrush in northern Nevada with the Love Of My Life, three cats and three dogs.

Sunday Morning Quote

“Courage is the price that life exacts for granting peace. The soul that knows it not, knows no release from little things; Knows not the livid loneliness of fear.” ~ Amelia Earhart

Blog History
BlueLyon began its life in 2005 at Blogger and moved to WordPress in June of 2008. In transfering content over from Blogger, many posts didn't make it over in their original format. For a better look, check out the BlueLyon archives at Blogger.
Comments Policy
BlueLyon reserves the right to edit or delete comments that are abusive, off-topic or spam. And that goes double for any comments that tell us to “get over it already.” Either you wish to engage or you don’t. You choose. Moderation: First-time commenters will automatically go into moderation, (as will all comments with 3 or more hyperlinks). Once your comment has been approved further comments will not require approval. Note: I have a M-F full-time job and may not always get to moderated comments as quickly as I would like, so be patient. Finally, the spam filter just snags comments, even from regular commenters. I do my best to keep up on that too, bear with me if it takes a day or two before I realize that you're stuck. It's nothing personal.
