Just a couple of things I care about that I wouldn't mind you clicking:
Watch this and read the comments about it on the page. Erin did a good job of summarizing it on her blog so that's all I'll say. When I watched it I was screaming at my computer and pounding the table in anger.
As you know, Knitty is my favourite knitting website; it provides a great service for knitting enthusiasts and the staff is friendly and helpful. Now they're getting ready to walk in Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation CIBC Run for the Cure. I went to the Knitty blog and donated a couple of Canadian dollars for the team, and I think it's a really good thing to do. Sometimes there are so many "causes" out there as to be overwhelming, but you can't argue against the importance of fighting breast cancer.
I'm a big fan of public television (and if I listened to the radio more, I'd be a big fan of public radio.) I think it's worth some of my tax dollars to fund it. So I signed this petition asking Congress to oppose the massive proposed cuts that will destroy it. I don't know if online petitions ever accomplish anything, but it was easy to do. If you agree, then sign it, too.
