It all started innocently enough, though with a hint of controversy. It was my turn to lead my children’s preschool coop session the day before Valentine’s Day. I figured that was an easy one–have them make valentines for each other out of construction paper.
The only problem was one of the coop moms has a real issue [...]

Numerical national holiday

Not the kind where you get school or work off, but a fun one I’d have never considered celebrating…
This March 14 is National Pi Day. I’m told the opening event starts at 1:59am
There are a number of web sites devoted to Pi and its great importance in our lives. Many people memorize Pi up to several [...]
Fazed by Facebook

About six weeks ago I got a page on Facebook. The impetus was that I successfully attempted to reconnect with an old friend so I could send his family a Christmas letter. He responded to my initial email with a brief update on his family and an encouragement to keep in touch with him via [...]

So this is how he did it.
On writing

It’s high time I wrote a little bit about writing. After all, I started this blog as a way to showcase myself as a writer.
In the beginning I was thinking children’s books. It’s still in the back of my mind, but it’s no longer my main priority. My main vision was to write, and to [...]
Coming soon to a sky near you… a false messiah!

No, I’m not talking about Obama!
There’s this interesting You Tube video I came across last night that details one of those secret black ops projects (that so many people seem to know about) where giant holographic images of various deities will be projected in the sky across the world. These images will be accompanied by [...]
Wholesome food

Here is a very interesting interview with Michael Pollan, author of The Omnivore’s Dilema and In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manifesto that talks about the food production issue.
A couple things stood out to me. One is the observation that for an increasing number of people, access to high quality food is becoming a real [...]
Fastest concession in the west

I wasn’t planning to stay up super late following the election results, and it turns out I didn’t have to. I started checking various web sites as soon as the polls closed in my state, and within a couple hours, Obama racked up over 300 projected electoral votes and McCain congratulated him on his victory.

What if it’s Obama?
Posted in Uncategorized on November 3, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
While it’s been a couple days since I’ve listened to the talk shows, I am positive the fear of Obama winning this election is still palpable among those opposed to him. Some of the stuff he says sure sounds scary to me too, and I’m not particularly looking forward to waking up Wednesday morning to [...]
Ron Paul, 9/11 Truth and other associations that could blow your credibility… or get you killed.

In the time leading up to the 2004 presidential election, my husband and I spent some time on the Little Green Footballs web site. Many of the LGF members would post comments as they were watching the various conventions, debates, and then the election results coverage itself. The comments were often quite funny, irreverent, and [...]
