Philosophy Friday

Just a little something to get you through another sobering day. I want my economy back, dammit. It’s a pity Michael Palin’s presidency bid failed. Related Images:

Rattlesnakes and Earthquakes

It is a travel day. Once again, I am off on the departure time. I could have sworn that it was 6, not 6:30. Instead of fifteen minutes late, we are 15 minutes early. A rapid drive down dark highways, making up for lost time that isn’t. This is the 101, past Pierce College, past […]

Vote, dummy!

I stayed up late last night to see how this mess would start.  Or is it end?  The start of the end, I guess.  Thank you, Dixville, for showing hope.  Now the rest of you, get out there and vote! And to the little girl down the street squeaking “Vote Barack Obama for President!” this […]

Apples And Oranges

Incognito I Party

After a few days on Craigslist, drawing out the crazies, we were contacted by Tiffany, a Spokane artist. Tiffany planned on painting […]

Loser Loser Loser

So the good news is that McCain’s been caught doing stupid things once again, as shown here and here. Hopefully this story will gain some traction here in the U.S.. Um, yeah, sure it’s a software glitch . . . The bad news is we’re still using the same electronic voting machines that were (in)famously […]

You betcha!

I like to think that he really gets it, but I know that (for now, at least) he’s just parroting what he has heard around the house. Anyway, here is my son’s take on the elections, as told us by his teacher: I wanted to relay a quick story about Aaron: Yesterday we were discussing […]

They Grow Up So Fast

How cute, she’s learned all of her mother’s diplomacy skills already. Related Images:
