I started writing this last night, but I had to stop for some reason, and I forgot all about it. It's just too cute (to me, anyway) not to post. Beth has been on a cereal kick lately. It's the only...
I've had a toothache for the past 3 months, and there's nothing I can do about it. There hasn't been a day that they haven't hurt, and it's only getting worse. I don't know how much longer I can stand...
Friday was a milestone of sorts. It was the last day that I spent working from home full time. As I mentioned before, things that we don’t discuss on the internet happened and I have to return to working in...
mellifluous Eleanor rang, and Solanka’s emotional bar went up another notch. “You know how to generate love, Malik,” his wife told him. “You just don’t know what to do with it once it’s there.” But still no anger...
I've started watching Lost. I suppose it was inevitable. Overall, it's pretty entertaining. They're really able to generate tension and emotional impact. But there are some things that strike me as a bit... implausible. I'm not talking...
After writing "relief" last night, it dawned on me that my wonderful day may have been God answering someone's prayer on my behalf. As I spoke to my friend on the phone this morning, I mentioned my hypothesis and she...
Author and role model, Betty Friedan, died today at the age of 85. The story is here from cnn. Betty wrote her book The Feminine Mystique in 1963 and was one of the pioneers in the...
Pittsburgh Steeler Catholics’ Super Bowl Faith: Perhaps more than any other professional sports team, the Steelers are known for Catholic ownership — “The Righteous Rooneys” — and major contributions to the Church. Steelers’ owner Dan Rooney attends daily Mass with...
"that He has dreamed for me." For the second night in a row, I woke up thinking about him in the middle of the night. I couldn't sleep for a long while but when I did, my sleep was very...
I am curious about how podcasting is being used as an instructional tool. Perhaps I can do a paper on it. I know many universities are using the technology to push delivery of lectures and materials, but I...
I've discovered something about house-hunting. It may start out as a fun job, but it quickly becomes a dreaded (dreadful?) job. Our agent showed us three homes this week. One had no storage whatsoever, another one had NO WINDOWS in...
Alfonso VIII of Castile was the European general who lead a coalition of Christian princes and crusaders in the pivotal victory of Las Navas de Tolosa. The battle was a major turning point in the Reconquista, the liberation of...
The stupid dispute continues to escalate. The only viable solution here is to refuse, flat out, to give any kind of concession here. Let them riot. Let them burn down their own cities. This is what...
Iran has been referred to the UN Security Council for violations of IAEA regulations. They immediately resumed enriching nuclear fuel, obviously (does anyone not see this?) for the purposes of creating nuclear weapons. This, dear reader, is how the diplomatic...
JFK Members and Guests, Please join us for a special JFK luncheon and meeting with US Congressman Lincoln Davis (D-4th), our good friend and leader committed to the Chattanooga community. Let's make this a huge success by making it our...
Those of you who know Jerad know that he is the mouthpiece for the Brewer family--therefore, I've tried to get him to start contributing to our lushpuppy efforts. I mean, all he has to do is take a break...
If I could reccomend a book to all my progressive friends, it would have to be "King Leopolds Soliliquy" by Mark Twain. It is a fervent condemnation of Imperialism. Pray that the republicans don't lay hands on it. Or we...
It's just a thought, but this may be my favorite record of all time. If you don't own it, you need to get it. If you don't like it, you need to have your head examined. I can wax all day long about...
yeah the title says more then it all. Anyway just thought I should draw something so you don't get sick of just words. or more so actually that I don't get sick of words... yep that's...
Call me biased, but I just can't seem to join either of the two dominant political parties in American politics. The Democrats have plenty of passion and concern, but seem to lack focus. The Republicans have solid ideas...
Damon recently gave Lively a hair cut. He cut the hair really close, so she barely has any hair at all. Well, as she has been sitting around the house, I could see her shivering and it bothered me....
In the morning's to the Times Free Press Bernie Miller, who is a Republican candidate for District 5 County Commission said about the race "I think it is my race to lose," Dr. Miller said "because he (Greg Beck) doesn't...
Alright then. Of course it doesn't really reflect green politics. But it is closer than some tests. Not a socialist, I believe in decentralized government. Thanks You are a Social Liberal (78% permissive) and...
