This we know:
1) A fake document emerged in 2002 that was supposed to be from Italian Military Intelligence which reported Saddam Hussein had tried to purchase 500 tons of yellow cake uranium from Niger. George W. Bush used...
While I haven’t been able to post much lately for a variety of reasons, this blog hasn’t been far from my thoughts. Lately, feminism is a subject that I think about often. In my About page, I declared myself a...
I’m calling this one “Standoff!” A couple of weeks ago, you got to meet Boris, the Russian Blue who lives across the street, when he got stuck in a tree. Well, this past week, Nonnie got to meet Boris, and...
I am signing up to run a one mile race tomorrow, it’s not that I am a sprinter, Kenyans do not sprint, I prefer to run long distance races at my own pace. In fact I am training for a...
Tomorrow night (5/16) the Chattanooga Football Club takes on the Atlanta Football Club at Finley Stadium at 7pm. There is no more important soccer game being played in the Southeast tomorrow night. It's an opportunity for our city to take vengeance on...
Two weeks ago we drove to Wilmington, NC for nephew Bobby's wedding. Driving, or even flying can be an ordeal when one has TM. Any type of stress, and this includes things that aren't stressful for healthy people, increases the...
Public House, a new Warehouse Row restaurant owned by Nathan Lindley, opens tonight. Josiah Roe sampled the pre-opening, lunch menu yesterday, and wrote a review at Irresponsible Journalism:
The concept/overall experience is unlike anything else in Chattanooga. The space is bright...
This has been a proud week for me as a Guatemalan. It has been a tragic week for the nation...politically, socially. On top of that, a professor of mine from college and a lady that worked there that...
Because there is only so much that can be written about the simple act of using public transportation (unless one were to branch out into character sketches of the other riders), this is the last in the occasional Magna CARTA...
Earlier this week, the Hamilton County Election Commission (HCEC) approved a petition by Frank DePinto to recall Chattanooga Mayor Ron Littlefield. The petition seeks to oust the mayor on claims that he has “disregarded the desire of the Citizens of Chattanooga to...
My sister in law came over and entertained Jared a while on Wednesday while I got some things done. She also helped me get him to his Pediatrician. I'm so thankful for my family and friends! They...
Took Jared to his first dr. visit and things seem fine. We go back in 2 weeks. It was exhausting just getting out (even though Daniel's dad came to help) and we came home and took a nap!...
Well, almost. My birthday is actually Sunday, but this morning was the best time to do our traditional out-to-breakfast birthday date. (if you can call a meal out with three kids a date) The problem was that our...
I guess Jared needed some attention, so he broke his leg (both the tibia and fibula) and we spent 2 1/2 days in the hospital. He has a leg cast from his little toes to his upper thigh, so...
I found out I have gestational diabetes and I'm a little bummed about it. I have to check my blood sugar and go on a special diet...just at a time when I should be able to eat anything I...
This starts Daniel's spring break and hopefully we will get all the major things done on our list. Our goal was to complete everything by the end of his spring break. We shall see. I'm excited to be able...
We declared it "baby day" today. We had an ultrasound at the high risk drs. and then we went and registered. How fun! All that baby stuff. We took pix and video. This is our...
I felt one of the babies move today while I was at Jared's basketball game. I felt it on the outside too! We moved Jared to his temporary room until we get his new big boy room ready. He...
Well, Jared got his wish...we are having 2 boys! You'd think I would have had a 50/50 chance at a girl, but no, we are having 2 boys. We could never agree on the spelling of Katelyn Joy...
Well, we had our first ultrasound today. Everything is fine. More than fine...we are having twins!! My reaction was, "There are 2 of them!" We brought Jared in and told him and he said that he hoped it...
Jared is praying for 2 babies and for both of them to be boys! He said if we have a girl, he will give it to grandma and if we have 2 girls, he "will just die." He...
This Thursday, we invited you to join us for another installment of The Summer of Taco™ at the Southside’s Cancun. I speak for myself alone, but the lead up to this luncheon was filled with groans from coworkers and friends....
He’s not up with the major league team anymore, but I figured I’d post this anyway since today is his birthday. Clint Sammons is seven months older than I am, so he’s turning 26 today. He’s not much of a...
Continuing on with a fruit theme for the day, I’ve been thinking a lot about what music I should post about next (after some Ian Hunter and then some more Ian Hunter/Mott). Lots of possibilities have been swirling around in...
Bye- bye, boys. She’s back and will be in full force at Pimlico on Saturday 6 PM. She will be up against Derby winner Mine That Bird, Pioneer of the Nile, and Friesan Fire. I am...
When I was a kid, I got an orange in my Christmas stocking every year. My parents grew up at a time when fruit in the winter was a rare treat, so citrus in December was still regarded with reverence...
