I had to stop a moment earlier today when I stopped to think that it's possible that in the course of a single decade in my lifetime, we'll have had our first black president, legalized gay marriage, and elected our first female president. Lots of big issue ballot measures in California this year: banning the death penalty, legalizing marijuana, requiring background checks for guns, increasing parole for non-violent offenders. As crazy as the world is, I have hope that we are on a saner track.
