Quick Getaway, originally uploaded by biblicone.
Lily took her Aunt Ginger to the Grounds For Sculpture in New Jersey over the weekend. Lily had a great time running around and climbing on, in, and up things. Aunt Ginger had a great time trying to take pictures of a quick Lily.
After looking at all the sculptures, Lily fell asleep for the ride home.

Joe Wilson yelled “Liar” at Obama during a speech to Congress about Health Care Reform. Congressman Wilson later apologized for his actions. I dont know if the apology was for the causing a disruption immaturely, the phrase “liar”, or disagreeing with Obama. I think he apologized because he was told to.

Look Mommy, Another Fountain, originally uploaded by biblicone.
Lily wore herself out at Longwood Gardens. She ran through fields, wandered around the kiddie area, inspected flowers and splashed through every fountain she could get her hands in.
She wore herself out. So cute.

The feudal society was constructed for one reason: security. ( Sounds like how the Bush administration got away with taking away some civil liberties in order to fight terrorists. )
The nobles wanted the security of maintaining control over their far-reaching kingdoms, so they were forced to delegate power to local control. ( State and local governments. In some cases large corporate entities. ) The peasants ( the middle class ) wanted security from marauders and barbarians from neighboring lands. They also wanted security from invading armies. ( Terrorists aka. militant Islamists ) And thus the development of the feudal system and the fief structure was almost inevitable. However, all this came at the great expense of the common man. He gave up many freedoms for his security. ( Our current “state of emergency”, searching everyone at airports, arresting protesters, fighting a never ending war on a theoretical enemy… )

Lily chasing and harassing Lux with her wooden alligator pushcart. I think Lux is entertaining her.
