Jesus doesn't know
Last week, my 6-year old was being evil in church. Finally, I had enough and took her out of there (yes, I know she got what she wanted but it got to the point where she was physically injuring people next to her). The punishment was appropriate, and I also asked her to write a [...]

“Experience and treachery beat youth and vigor every time.” – My Dad 41 years ago this morning, I squeezed my way into the world. Just goes to show you, babies are dumb. No, it isn’t a happy birthday for a variety of reasons, some I can talk about, some I can’t. As you would expect, [...]

So, it’s been a few months, I think, since I wrote about church. Don’t worry this isn’t about religion. There is a difference, you know. (Again, for those that don’t know my opinion on discussions of religion and God and whether he exists or not, allow me to tell you: It’s none of your business. [...]

And that’s saying something, considering that I’ve written about American Idol on other blogs. So, I was sitting in church Sunday morning. Yes, I go to church. No, I don’t want to talk about heaven, hell, God, Jesus, life, death, atheism, agnostics, christians, jews. If you do, go to blogger and get yourself a blog [...]

I’m over my trepidation regarding migrating my blogs to WordPress and a new host. Since I went with Bluehost several weeks ago, I’ve mucked around trying to screw stuff up and haven’t. So I’m feeling better about my problems with GoDaddy being GoDaddy’s fault and not mine. Effin’ GoDaddy. This blog is hosted on Blogger. [...]

I swear to god, this is the first time I’d heard of monkey-nappers. Sounds like something straight out of a Carl Hiaasen novel! A simian-snatching group stole away with a monkey trained as a companion for a Putnam County woman with mental disabilities. Joan Newberger, 60, was showing the marmoset monkey, named Destiny and clad [...]
