SML and I were invited to the Volunteers of America breakfast this morning. They served eggs, potatoes, and watered down coffee that reminded me of iHop. SML and I have started taking our coffee very seriously, asking about Fair Trade status at local coffee chains and then complaining if the coffee isn’t strong enough to burn through an ulcer. Which is why I’m even commenting on the coffee at this event; because I take it seriously, not because anyone else cares that the coffee this morning did not jump start my engine. Last summer I had all sorts of opinions about the homeless in Salt Lake City. I even stalked out people to discuss what I felt was a lack of attention to a growing problem. During the Salt Lake City Mayoral primary I found two citizens concerned about the drug problem at Pioneer Park and I turned the whole thing into a “homeless” problem and then demanded to know what they thought should be done about it. At the breakfast this morning I felt ashamed that I didn’t even know about Volunteers of America, about how much work and effort goes into their programs for the homeless. And then I started to feel good about society, that maybe we’re not all crazy. And then I read about Sally Kern.
