Drop off Textiles for Recycle and benefit Heart House Dallas
Dude, get rid of it! Did you know that 2.5 billion lbs. of textiles are recycled every year? If you want to be authentic Saturday, April 23rd, drop off clothes, shoes, belts, handbags, toys and stuffed animals, sheets and other gently owned soft goods between 10 am - 5 pm. We know it means spending a little time dealing with closets and drawers first, but The Earth will thank you - and it’s a drive-through.
Film of Gil Scott-Heron
Remember when Gil’s revolution was not televised, Nikki loved to ego trip and Ntzoke’s rainbow wasn’t “enuf”? It was back when poetry was done to the backdrop of jazz and the rhythm of the drum.

In the grand scheme of things, this affects all of us so today I’m encouraging all of you to learn about and support Net Neutrality and to encourage the FCC Board, located below, to vote against a Tier System on the Open Internet on December 21, 2010.

Not too much, just a 5K run or a 1 mile fun run – you could make it that far, right?
