1 Age

  • 1. A lot of music you might listen to is pretty vapid it doesn't always deal with our deeper issues. These are the things I'm interested in now particularly at my age.
  • 2. It seems to me there is a change in what audiences want to see. I can only hope that's correct because there's an awful lot of people of my age around now and we outnumber the others.
  • 3. Error is acceptable as long as we are young but one must not drag it along into old age.

2 Amazing

  • 1. Becoming food savvy is one thing but it's amazing how fast savvy turns to snooty and snooty leaves you preparing three-hour meals that break your budget and that the kids won't even eat.
  • 2. I truly don't know why the boys are getting all the votes – it could be because they are really amazing and that's all there is to it. They're really really good and every single boy deserves to be in the competition right now and so do the two girls.
  • 3. Ever consider what pets must think of us? I mean here we come back from a grocery store with the most amazing haul – chicken pork half a cow. They must think we're the greatest hunters on earth!

3 Anger

  • 1. In high school I dated a white woman. She would come to visit me on the rez. And her dad who was very racist didn't like that at all. And he told her one time 'You shouldn't go on the rez if you're white because Indians have a lot of anger in their heart.'
  • 2. For me music is a vehicle to bring our pain to the surface getting it back to that humble and tender spot where with luck it can lose its anger and become compassion again.
  • 3. Violence is a problem we all want to solve. I want to make sure that kids learn to deal with anger by learning how to talk with people to solve problems. Here in the United States Senate I want to make sure we have safe schools safe neighborhoods and good things for kids to do after school!

4 Anniversary

  • 1. On July 18 we will mark the 12th anniversary of the senseless loss of 85 lives in the bombing of the Jewish Cultural Center in Buenos Aires Argentina.

  • 3. The 150th anniversary of Penn State will highlight what is important and good about this distinguished institution and the fine people and research that it produces.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Yet for my part deeply as I am moved by the religious architecture of the Middle Ages I cannot honestly say that I ever felt the slightest emotion in any modern Gothic church.
  • 2. Architecture is the reaching out for the truth.
