Rezko: No reason not to support Obama
It looks like one of Obama's long time supporters got arrested for some skulduggery. So? Tell me why I should back Hillary or the Republicans. Rezko is chump change compared to some of the things that have happened in the last 8 years. Show me one politician who doesn't have at least one backer...

The Economy: If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Well it is broke. But what you're proposing won't fix it. Mr. President, if you want to encourage people to buy stuff, open the oil reserves, cut the gasoline tax in half, fire the guy who's negotiating with our foreign oil suppliers and replace him with someone who can talk the price down about $75...

My November Ticket
The November ticket I want to see is Obama (D) vs. Romney (R). I think Obama’s best chance in November is against Romney. At that point all the other candidates will have been handed their hats for this election. The decision will be down to the voters. White Christians who have been supporting the...

Foot mods
When I was in High School my wrestling coach told me that I needed to saw off a 1' piece off a broom handle and stand on it barefoot and rock back and forth to "create arches." He also mentioned something about working my way up to a glass Coke bottle. (This conversation happened in 1980) Now this...

Aichmophobia: Fear of Knives and Sharp Objects
What is it with people? Someone takes out a pocketknife to cut their own food with and people around them who are trying to pick apart their food freak out? I was in the restroom washing the knife on my multi-tool so that I could cut my orange and a coworker walks in and lumps me in with another...

The Ultimate Green Light
Well maybe not ultimate, but close. I have one of these push-light gizmos that I got at one of the home warehouse stores. It uses 4 AA batteries. I just put a set of rechargeable batteries in it. Then I looked at the light and realized it has an incandescent flashlight bulb in it. So I looked up the...

Pornogastronomy
Eating something that by your official stance, reputation, etc. you aren't supposed to. The vegan who sneaks an egg or a bite of cheese here and there. The carnivore who munches carrots while nobody's looking. It's porn. It's the sneaking of a pleasure that goes against a religious or philosophical...

I heard you! I just don't care!
I dated this girl once. If you can call it "dating." I mean we went out once. It was a date. She was a classmate in college and I was attracted to her and she found me...well something. Anyway we were talking. And at some point she brought up the "fact" that "men" are less intelligent than "women."...

teeeeeeeeeeeeea
I'm new to tea. I mean the way they were drinking it before someone dropped ice cubes in it. I find it to be a calming drink, even the stuff that has you wired to the gills by the time you finish the cup. I won't say it's better than sex but I will say it's better than sex with some. Tea after sex...

Today's Lesson from Church
I sat at the table with some older men during the coffee hour. So I got to see what sorts of conversations I am going to be engaged-in in about 15-20 years. Today's topic was Colonoscopy. They were talking about that crap they give you to drink that rooters your system and how they knock you out...
