Last month, there arose a story that spread around the Internet like wildfire. Wait…wildfires don’t actually traverse DSL wires. Rats. Nor do hotcakes. Okay, I don’t have a good metaphor, but regardless…”The Bible” mini-series was a tremendous hit for the History channel. However, viewers noticed that the Moroccan actor playing Satan looked not too dissimilar …

Our 3 1/2 year old standard poodle, Chewie, is in the hospital. He had had an eye infection 10 days ago, and our vet noticed that he had lost about six pounds. She asked us to keep an eye on his eating. After a week of his appearing listless and having little appetite, Melinda took …

An interesting thing about Democrat reaction tonight. NOBODY loves Obama. They just hate Romney. You know…I could understand the seething loathing from Democrats if we were running someone like Reagan-on-steroids, but in the last two elections our candidates were two of the most middling, almost-a-Democrat, reach-across-the-aisle non-partisans you could hope to find. One was a …

The sad thing is that the “women earn 72% of what a man earns for the exact same job” factoid is peddled by professors of women’s studies who earn the same amount as for a professor of something useful like astronomy.

Painful debate tonight, just because I hate hearing the candidates accepting the stupid premises of the average joes in the town hall style forum. I would have preferred that Mitt Romney say, “If business owners can really hire a woman to do the exact same work for only 72% of a man’s wages, then women …

Back circa 1865-1875, the Republican party and America’s black population shared a renaissance. The Republican party, having prevailed in the Civil War (and with most of the Democrats in the South out of power while Reconstruction began), passed the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments, along with a score of civil rights laws banning segregation and …

Tonight’s episode of “The Simpsons” was about four stories of women in literature. Usually, these “three stories” episodes are mediocre at best. I think they started doing these right around the time that I fell out of love with the show. I used to watch the show religiously. Now, I find it boring at best …

Roger Ebert received a great honor recently, and I’m of two minds of the matter. As a guy who appreciates film, I bet he’d be great to pal around with and talk about which X-Men movie was better and why, and what movies he hated, etc. At the same time, he’s not as great a …

Gary Sinise, hard-working crusader for the USO ever since September 12, 2001, was given the Presidential Citizens Medal, the second-highest honor a civilian can earn. Way to go, Mr. Sinise! Is it just me, or is Associated Press determined to make every story about the Bush administration stink? Look how the story hammers hard about …
