Would You Shorties
What is Problem?: Putin sees no problems whatsoever with Prism. Interesting Statistic: Young children with guns have killed more people than terrorism in the United States this year. Maybe we need a law prohibiting little kids from owning guns… um, yeah never mind. Wake Up Call: Boomers, this is the future calling. He swears he doesn’t [...]
Crazy Talk
So, it seems clear to me that the War on Drugs isn’t even the War On Some Drugs, but rather the War On Brown People Possessing Drugs. At what point can we confess this and address the problem? At what point do we stop wasting millions of millions of dollars “fighting drugs” and putting people in prison [...]
Beneath the Shorties
LOL: Enjoy this meme while you can, I figure it’s dead in 3 weeks. They just keep coming: Remember, the plot to kill Big Bird is still in play. There’s a Million Muppet March planned. Twelve! Meeeeelion! Jobs!!!: Yeah, so? Get it off me! Get it get it get it….: Is it just me, or does Mr. Romney look [...]
One heck of a life
Sad news today. Andy Griffith has passed away. Maybe you knew him from television? The man only had two monstrous TV hits and 6 decades of acting credits! What I didn’t realize is that he had a degree in music. Rest in Peace. In Closing: it’s more than a “sex” scandal; the bad idea of a [...]
A Few Words about “Nice, Safe Neighborhoods”
It isn’t very often that I have something to say worth posting to both my personal and professional websites. This is one of those posts. I am often asked by my relocating clients about “nice, safe neighborhoods.” This is honestly a trick question that I can’t really answer. I can point you to Metro‘s or [...]
When a Shorties Calls
P90X: Even when you do it half-assed, not using the schedule, not using the diet plan, it works. Or at least that’s what Professor Cedric X Bryant says. Sir Patrick Stewart: On domestic violence. Oh, the Economy: Dollar Stores. Let’s see, your share comes to at least $319.50: Taypayers will be on the hook for [...]
In the Shorties of Madness
What’s Your Angle: In what I fervently hope will be the last thing I have to say about Sharron Angle ever, Angle announces that she won’t be answering any questions asked by the pesky [local] media until she is a Senator, darn it. And Channel 8? You are so not invited to her Election Night [...]
Shorties in the Sky
Impressive: America needs roughly $2,200,000,000,000 in repairs to things like roads, tunnels, bridges and the like. You don’t suppose doing something like that might result in some kind of fiscal stimulus? Stick to feeding the poor and preaching peace: young people increasingly turned off by the hateful political crap spewed by many churches. Do Not [...]
Thoughts for Labor Day
I think it’s appropriate to focus on jobs for Labor Day. The good news is that employers did add new jobs last month. Unfortunately they didn’t add nearly enough to make a dent in unemployment. Even as private employers are adding positions, cash-strapped state and local governments have had no choice but to cut them. [...]
2001 Maniacs: Field of Shorties
The Truth About Cattle Grazing: done correctly, it can help restore the land. Two Funny Things and a Lot of Unfunny Ones about Racism: Let’s get rid of the Mexicans, and Who translated this for you? There’s a movement afoot to pass laws that violate the 14th Amendment on the grounds that not everyone born [...]
