Election Troubles, Yes; 3000m Steeplechase, No!!

There may be all sorts of election troubles in Kenya. They may have to sort out some things concerning their new President and even their elected representatives. There will be more death and destruction before it's all over. It just won't be a good situation. I can safely say one thing though; when... Sign in to see full entry.

You Know Those Chimps Are Smart!

I saw a news article where chimps were shown to do about as good as college students on math if language is not used. I am pretty sure if you just talked to a chimp long enough he'd get to understand the problem that way also. I don't know if we should insult the chimps in that manner. I know they...

"Climate Change" Conference

Let's get a few things straight here. It was not really a "climate change" conference. It was a "global warming" conference. And it was not really that either. It was a bash the United States conference like most of these things generally are. Did you see any dissent to things getting worse and... Sign in to see full entry.

One Big Asterisk*

Baseball is going to need on big * for this whole era; the drug era I will call it. Some of the biggest names in the game enhanced their performances by illegal means. And that is not good. America was cheated!! And we the fans are a bit to blame also. We loved the mammoth home runs and big numbers.... Sign in to see full entry.

Bush's Veto Pen

President Bush pulled out his veto pen for only the 7th time in 7 years to veto the "children's" health bill. Well, it would have been for some "older" children as written! Like "children" who are over 18!! And that is one of the main reasons it needed to be vetoed. The President was very clear in... Sign in to see full entry.

Who Cares? (I know I don't)

I wrote a piece about just bombing the bad guys in Afghanistan to pieces and it really could apply to anywhere we fight the bad guys. I had some comments back about "colateral damage" and such. I don't buy that. Who cares about all of that? I really don't. The terrorists hide behind women, children,... Sign in to see full entry.

Michael Vick: Don't Pass Go; Go Straight To Jail

Michael Vick will head to jail. His sentence is 23 months. I am sure he will get off with serving a lot less than that. He's lucky. If I had anything to do with it......well, let's just say he wouldn't have been as lucky. He not only committed the crime, but lied about it for a long time to try and... Sign in to see full entry.

Born Gay Or Not?

Is a person born gay? Or do they acquire this lifestyle for some other reason? I have seen arguments both ways on the deal and none seem to be real convincing. A recent post showed someone who thought you "acquired" the traits to become homosexual and he was barraged with some pretty nasty comments.... Sign in to see full entry.

Where Are They Going To Live?

Each day we have a headline that reads something like, "How sales at all-time low" or "Home sales plunge" or "Housing market worst ever". You get the picture. Well, I don’t get the picture. Where do all these people live that don’t buy houses? From reading our news they must live in the woods.... Sign in to see full entry.

Tuesday Tipoff

Yes, that’s Tuesday. I did not have to write this week about an old bad Monday because I did not have to work. So, it’s an old bad Tuesday!! Not really!! It will be nice. I will have only a four day work week and that makes me happy. I do know at times a four day week seems longer than a five day... Sign in to see full entry.
