Happy Fourth!

Obviously, I should not start a cooking blog. Even though they stuck to the baking sheet, breaking many, Sage and I had fun making them. They look a bit like red and blue starfish, don’t you think? I just […]

And It All Just Went Away, Kinda

I stopped thinking about politics.
I started thinking about ways to earn money instead. I found myself abandoning sites like TruthOut and reading Dosh Dosh as an unlikely alternative.
This all sounds very selfish and all, but it has worked out for me rather well. I’ve made several thousand more dollars than I would have […]

Good Art, Great Cause

I found these images at Good 50×70, a website that features graphics done to promote social issues. It’s an excellent site.

I just know that last one was inspired by Swimmy!

Excuse Me While I Throw Up

So it appears that Bush’s trip to the Mideast is making headlines today. Doesn’t he sound like quite the champion of human rights?
n fact, in his speech he sought to reach out to the people of Iran, saying: “You’re rich in culture and talent. You have the right to live under a government that […]

In Case They Arrest You For Buying Her Dinner

I’ve pretty much settled upon being Libertarian as far as that’s even possible. That’s why I believe that adult prostitution should not be criminalized.

Have We Been Missing Something Here?

I’m so glad that someone finally wrote this story about Sen. Craig.

It’s so easy to hate hypocritical Republican senators. But, we have a duty to stand up for his right not to be hassled by the police just as we should for any other citizen. Sure, it hurts our sense of justice. We want […]

That’s My Boy!

After seeing this book in the college bookstore, Sky commented on it and I said that someone needed to send Bush a copy. Fifteen minutes later, Sky’s Photoshopping was complete! Do you think it is a genetic thing or just good sense?

Rural East Texas

The country life is really not all it’s cracked up to be.

Strange Things Afoot

I shouldn’t complain about Sky being on probation, although you know that I will. As a result, he is now in college a year ahead of schedule, at the age of 16. He registered and started classes last week. I have to tell you, being up there walking him through registration at my alma mater […]

Little Pink Animals

This post was inspired by Teaching And All That Jazz, although we are not at all talking about the same thing.
First of all, let me apologize. One of the reasons that I have not been posting is because my posts tend to be on the negative side. I’m pretty self-conscious about that. I am […]
