A Love Letter from Garden Gnome, or Why I Hate the Baby Boomers
Writers Note: When I say Baby Boomers, you know who you are are: Middle class and rich white liberals and conservatives. The ones we ALWAYS hear about. If you are a baby boomer who is a member of some oppressed group, I ain't talkin' about you.
Dear Baby Boomers,
Just when you thought hating on you was only a pastime for Generation X, it turns out those of us in "Generation Y" aren't impressed with you either. As I am sitting here finishing the last papers of my college career, I reflect on what I have to look forward to in my adult life on account of your megalomania.

Help Start a Peace Vigil in Hampton
Hello All Residents of Hampton, Hampton Falls, North Hampton and other surrounding towns,
I would like to start a Peace Vigil in Hampton. Either in the Gazebo in down town Hampton, or perhaps in front of the Methodist Church on Lafayette Rd, or any other place that anyone else may think is good.
I am open to times/day/evening/frequency etc... Hoping that enough people would be interested so that no one person would have to be available at all times. I say this, considering the BUSY schedules of so many people, including myself as a state representative.
