Mozart and mocha
The party shuffle on iTunes has just given me "Mozart: Clarinet Concerto in A, K. 622 - Adagio Clarinet Concerto". What better with a mocha on a rain-snowy day.

candidates worth keeping an eye on
Luke Garrott is running for Salt Lake City Council in the district just barely north of where I live. I've met him, talked to him, he's worth listening to and I think he could be good for Salt Lake. His site is: www.votelukegarrott.com.
Also, though it's a year early it's that time again. I'm one of the 2,590 people in Utah who voted for Dennis Kucinich in the 2004 Democratic Primary. He's thrown his name in the hat for 2008 and I still like him, something about Midwestern populists who aren't afraid to use their intellect... His site is kucinich.us.
If you didn't catch the interview with Kucinich on the Diane Rehm Show today on NPR, you can find it here.
Of course even this far out the presidential competition is a lot more interesting now than it was in 2004. So I'll keep you posted on where I am, but keep in mind to look beyond the obvious and highly publicized candidates. After all, except for the political junkies who outside of Georgia had heard of Jimmy Carter in February of 1975? (Frankly I'm too young to answer this question. My first chance to vote was in the presidential election in 1988).
