LD parked at Foscue Creek Park, Dec 12, 2007
I'm looking forward to Foscue
Yesterday's decision to head south for a while before I head to New Mexico is agreeing with me. I'm looking forward to spending time at Foscue Creek Park again. Looking through my photos from last year reminded me how much I enjoyed my stay there last year.
Kentucky has by far the cheapest gas I've encountered so far
Now there's something I thought I'd never see again. Cheap gas. Today I headed west on Kentucky's Blue Grass Parkway and then took US 31E and US 231 south as far as Shelbyville TN. That took me through Kentucky's cheap gas country where I paid $1.789. Twice. Kentucky must be raising revenue by some means other than through gasoline taxation.

Privileges
It would be possible, of course, to feel contempt for people entirely oblivious of the power structure within which they had their own security. But what do people in general know about how their privileges relate to their fellow citizens' lack of privileges? Is it possible, even, to live with an exact knowledge of where you yourself stand in the network of human exploitation?
