Looks like this week I’m gonna be focusing in on crappy journalism. Here is a quick description of the two candidates running in the special election to fill Ted Kennedy’s old seat: The policy differences between Democrat Martha Coakley and Republican Scott Brown were as clear during last night’s debate as they have been throughout […]
If a Siamese Twin Commits Murder, Does His Brother Get Punished Too? OK. Have no idea. Then again, I’m still waiting for a definitive answer to this age old question: How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie-Pop? Although the later has been examined and a mathematical formula has […]
You would think I would chose myself over some Wisconsin law professor, but then, I always have had a thing for law professors, and hate myself. Ann is criticizing the clumsy writing style of a Vanity Fair writer, who write this about Tiger Woods’ choice of girlfriends / mistresses: Tiger’s story has been driven by […]
Happy New Year Everybody! I want to start the new Year by reflecting on the old one. For me, like many, it wasn’t a great one. I didn’t get a full-time teaching job, and remained underemployed. As a result, my finances and credit rating took a dump. I have a few collection agencies calling me. […]

Taking the train home from Washington to Fresno. I’ll be off the grid for a day or so. Happy Hunting… or some such non-sense.
That’s infamous reality show whore Jon Gossling… sorry, it’s Gosselin. Hey, don’t watch the show. I hate reality shows. They’re stupid. Anyway, in the article, Levi says he identifies with him… really? Says he got GOOD parenting tips from him… Really??? “He was very positive and gave some good advice that I’m going to take,” […]
So here I am, Saturday morning, at Greg’s sisters house. As sometimes happens when sleeping in less familliar surrounding, the sleep was fitfull. It may be the setting, or it may be Greg’s fault. I get to that in a few. The dream? Greg and I were traveling to the top of a very high […]
