One Moment In Time

In the vast number of tributes and reflections today, this is just another. I remember walking into my office, here in Miami, when the first plane struck the World Trade Center in New York, thousands of miles away. The sheer implausibility and ridiculousness of even the possibility of that act made even the concept that [...]

Read This Before School This Morning

With all the back and forth nonsense about President Obama’s speech to kids, this morning, read it now. Then decide. Now, I ask you: Why wouldn’t you want your kids to hear this? I’ve read the speech, and I just can’t imagine why anyone wouldn’t want their child(ren) to hear it. Well, yes I can. [...]

Survivor: Republican Edition

I couldn’t resist. In the interest of fairness, this one is from the Republicans (psssst! Boner! The answer to your final question is YES!): Who says I can’t be fair? But the proverbial cherry on top? Check this out: RNC Clown College Click on the photo or the above link to see all 28! Uploaded [...]

History!

We ate. We [...]

Harry S. Truman – Great American President

If you think you get plenty of ranting political e-mails from friends and acquaintances on an average day, they just seem to multiply exponentially during Political Season, don’t they? I have a favorite antagonist – normally the sweetest guy on the planet – who, if you were to judge solely by the e-mails he forwards [...]

P.S. – I Love You, Too

So, if you’ve been following along, on Tuesday, I posted about some pro-Obama mass e-mails I had received from a friend. Those e-mails had been replied to by someone else on the mailing list, a woman who had obviously imbibed the Republican/fundamentalist/right-wing Kool Aid. Repeatedly. I then responded to her, in what I thought was [...]

Miss Congeniality

You know, I’m not going to touch the “suspicious birth” of Sarah Palin’s 5-month old Down’s Syndrome baby. Truth be told, while I’m sure there are exceptions, we are all familiar with Down’s Syndrome as a birth defect of children born to women over 40. So I’m just not going to go there. Sen. Obama [...]

I know, I know. Reader’s Digest. But honestly, there actually is a subject near and dear to my heart at [...]
