The plague
Thursday, December 29th, 2005Sick as a dog the last couple of days. I got the damn flu shot, but it seems this flu didn't care. As usual, I lie in bed, being miserable, and watching TV. Last time, I had nothing but what was on in real time, and had a lovely ...
One year ago
Monday, December 26th, 2005The 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami was one year ago today, claiming the lives of at least 200,000 people. I said what I wanted to about it in an op-piece that appeared in the the Baltimore Sun last January, "Horrors such as tsunami tragedy pose difficult questions for faithful". ...
Xmas wars, spooge, and Lion King porn
Sunday, December 25th, 2005A few changes since last month ("The Lion King, alien abduction, the antichrist, Barry Williams, and tight-assed porn") in what search terms bring people to this blog. This month's top 10 (last month's ranking in brackets following). 1. lion king 2 [3] 2. lion king [1] 3. lion king ...
The war that wasn’t
Saturday, December 24th, 2005I was going to write one more post about the non-existent "war on Xmas" (see the earlier ones here), in which I counted up how much explicit "Christmas" crap I got in a given day vs. how much generic "holiday" (so much more "Christmas" than "holiday" that it isn't funny, ...
HumanLight draws to a close
Saturday, December 24th, 2005Ah, it's over. Even phony holidays like HumanLight/Festivus take some work, you know. Did I mention that for the four nights of HumanLight, poetry is written each night, preferably about the seasons (Spring on night 1, Summer 2, etc.)? I'm not a big poetry guy. But I share my ...
Oz-lets
Wednesday, December 21st, 2005Because I am a pathetic and doting parental unit, I share these from the land of Oz: I went into his room to ask him to settle down and go to sleep, because it was getting late. He told me that "The sleep electricity went out of my head." Last night, ...
Truth wins a round in Dover
Tuesday, December 20th, 2005The Dover decision is in: Judge Rules Against 'Intelligent Design'. Update: PDF of decision is here.
Lil’ ho’s, junior edition
Tuesday, December 20th, 2005I guess Bratz didn't feel like the sexualizing of young girls via regular Bratz (see the earlier post "Lil’ Ho’s (from Hasbro)") went far enough. So now we have Bratz Babyz -- the doll that sexualizes 3-year-olds. You know, if this were a comedic parody of a product, it would ...
Bush admits crime
Monday, December 19th, 2005Lots of commentary on Bush's "Yes, we spied on U.S. citizens" address out there. But this one is my favorite -- just a silly little Flash bit with commentary as text. Give it a look: Actual Excerpts From the President's Radio Address
