"Accidental" Deaths Of Children Getting Ridiculous

A dentist in Boca Raton, Florida, pled guilty to aggravated manslaughter for leaving his son in a car, where the child subsequently died from the heat.

Killing For A Child?

The particularly gory and grisly death of Bobby Jo Stinnet by the hands of what seems to be a couple of assailants has led to a couple's arrest, the recovery of the baby that was cut from the poor woman's womb, and shocked disbelief everywhere. Strands of hair were found in Stinnett's still living... Sign in to see full entry.

Say Whatever You Like, You're Protected

When we speak of being protected under the Constitution, we pretty much take for granted that this means that our Constittuional rights will be upheld by any and all governmental authorities. This includes the Right of Free Speech, or the Freedom of Expression, whichever one you prefer. And, to all... Sign in to see full entry.

Remember When Messing Around With Kids Meant Playing Games With Them?

As if the worldwide pedophile and sexual abuse scandal that has gripped the Catholic Church for the last several years wasn't bad enough, now it looks like humanitarian and charitable organizations that deal with children have also been in on the act for years. For instance, the Big Brothers Big... Sign in to see full entry.

From Pathetic To Assinine

Yesterday I posted a blog on this dimwit teenager, feeling pressured to buy Christmas gifts, taking a pipe-bomb to school and trying to sell it. It happened to be a private Christian school and the right reverend and quite moronic Mr. West tried to pass the boy's actions off as a "boys will be boys"... Sign in to see full entry.

Weapons Deal Goes Bad In Georgia

A 14-year-old boy was arrested at the Lake Dow Christian Academy for bringing a pipe-bomb to school and trying to sell it. And it wasn't because others weren't interested in the bomb, just thought the asking price too high ($35). After some of the students told their parents, the parents notified...

Sentencing Corporate America To Remedial School

The written word, the symbols of our verbalizations, has come under attack in corporate America, according to an article in The New York Times entitled "Something Corporate America Cannot Build: A Sentence." It seems that the Age of Information is filled with emails, especially on the corporate... Sign in to see full entry.

Clarification: Why Dialogue Between Bloggers Is So Important

My last post pretty much slammed Alabama for its posture on public education, its social and cultural backwardness, and its inability to see beyond the turn of the century (1900, that is, not 2000). A fellow blogger, Justsouno, decided that what I had posted hurt his/her feelings and let me know... Sign in to see full entry.
