Moral Values in the 2004 Election
Exit polls in the last election showed that "moral values" was an important issue for voters. The thesis here is that the term "moral values" was much broader for voters than code-language for the pro-life position of a rejection of same-sex marriage.

The Endless Walk Of Richard Brautigan
Richard Brautigan was known for his preoccupation with death. His prose and poetry are filled with the beauty and imagery surroundings the mysterious realms of the unknown. After his death, it was thought that his voice had been taken from us forever by the quick hand of fate. The reasons for his suicide may never be fully discovered, but the short narrative that he left behind may provide clues to the curious observer. His notes may also provide an insight into his creativity and brilliance, for no longer may the critics freely assume that his personal story was of a man destroyed by the horrors of drink and opulance, for as his narrative shows, Brautigan was a writer emerging into a new burst of artistic vision that was about to carry him into new cannons of the literary craft.
