For 15 years, Hillary Clinton has been part of a secretive religious group that seeks to bring Jesus back to Capitol Hill. Is she triangulating—or living her faith? It was an elegant example of the Clinton style, a rhetorical maneuver subtle,...
The mega toy retailer, Wal-Mart- is now selling Biblical toys like the talking Jesus The missed opportunities are regretful. Goliath is barely taller than David. Jonah is inexplicably bigger than the whale is he's supposed to fit...
Neoconservatives are great observers of war and warriors, though they are sometimes not in complete agreement about the numbering of the conflicts that they send other people's sons and daughters to fight. Norman Podhoretz, the patriarch of the neocons, believes...
This weeks entry at the Independent Film Series is the movie Once, directed and written by John Carney. It's a simple, unpretentious, and remarkably touching film. I give it two thumbs up. It has an 88 on Metacritic. I think tomorrow...
I couldn't help but make the connection yesterday between Marti Rutherford's arrogant lawsuit against the city (which is the same as suing the people of Chattanooga) and Comcast's arrogant lawsuit against EPB (which is the same as suing the people...
After listening to Hillary say for over a year now that if she knew then what she knows now, she would not have voted to give Bush the authorization to go into Iraq, I am shocked -- seriously stunned --...
It was rumored that all, or almost all, of the Council members were against her. It turned out that one was absent, and last night's vote was 7-1, so that's as close as it comes. They looked at...
I purchased my first home end of last year and remodeled the entire thing top to bottom. I also purchased all new appliances at the end of May 07 right before moving in . Well today when I came into...
These are just some random pics from a few weeks ago. I had meant to post them at the time, but never got around to it. It is rare that Patrick and I are actually in a photograph together....
Professor: "I know the judge in this case, and I think she's a great lady, but I think she got it wrong here." Law student (notorious gunner and all-around jackass): "Just blame it on her clerks." Professor: "My wife was one of...
That appears to be the consensus. ... are any of these people from her supposed district? UPDATE: Yeah, what he said! And what the hell is going on (have you read the suit?)?...
I am so grateful that it is so much easier to homeschool in today's age! We are blessed by the support of much of society, our friends, our family, and our churches! And in addition to the many opportunities homeschoolers...
Anybody who teaches that someone is less valuable than someone else is wrong, wrong, wrong, and I'm thrilled that this guy is finally getting nailed for his sinful and revolting use of authority to manipulate and control an entire community....
Just in case you weren't feeling too old today, this will certainly change things. The people who are starting college this fall across the nation were born in 1988. They are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up....
i finally have new and old artwork for sale on etsy again... (i will be adding art daily) quilted landscape 9"x12" painting: acrylics, gouache, and ink on hardboard a few drawings: ...
And I love you too John, even if your photographers take creepy photos. It's about time a news source got on the Google Maps bandwagon and used it to enhance their news articles. John should be commended. I can't wait...
A bicycle can't stand on its own because it is two-tired. What's the definition of a will? (It's a dead giveaway). Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana. A backwards poet writes inverse. Can you say Dunder Mifflin Infinity? Join...
Sunsets are always beautiful. This one was no exception. I really enjoy driving up to Signal Point whenever I get a chance. The lights in the distance are that of Chattanooga. The mountain on the other side of the river...
The first warning sign of political corruption is when a candidate decides to run. Why him/her? Ron Littlefield ranted against his opposition in the last mayoral election as being the "chosen candidate" of a particular community, but I'll take someone...
Just under 28 minutes, to put it another way. That was how long it took me to beat minesweeper on Advanced without using flags. I don't know whether or not that's a good time, but seeing as I'd never done it before...
He was just a little boy, on a week's first day. Wandering home from Sunday School, and dawdling on the way. He scuffed his shoes into the grass; he even found a caterpillar. He found a fluffy milkweed pod, and blew out all the "filler." A bird's nest...
Dear Media Reformer,
If you're getting this e-mail, you already know that universal,
affordable high-speed Internet access is critical to our future.
Unfortunately, most of us have been left out of the debate over
the future of the Internet that is happening right now...
Time to dip into the old mail bag, and as usual, you people have a lot to say. Mu-Mu-Move On Down The Road We've gotten a butt ton of email asking about Worst Mayor Ever's take on Marti Rutherford's run in with...
Here's are just a few things I've run across recently: Apparently Shrub is enrolled some sort of remedial speech reading for dummies. The Episcopalians don't want to be out in front quite that far! And here's an interesting video of one of Jack...
