I'm feeling a little weepy inside now. I've had a few cyber friends confide to me this year about their health. For my readers who believe in prayer, I'll ask you to say one or a few on their beh...

Earlier this morning I ran across an art contest given by Greenpeace, called "Redesign BP's Logo ". They think BP's logo is too pretty and misleading. I hadn't planned on entering, but I figured...
I haven't written anything personal in awhile, but what happened late this afternoon made me cry. My 7 pound poodle was attacked by a pit bull. The story begins this past Thursday evening. Xavi...

I've been thinking about how hard it is to love somebody, and for someone else to criticize that person even when it's well-deserved. It feels like someone talking trash about your mama or your d...

There is zero room for errors in solving the Gulf Oil Catastrophe. By the end of the grim post, you'll understand how the Gulf could turn into a fireball. A few hours ago I finally wept, because...

Insidiously and with the stealth of a slow moving cancer, the five conservatives on the Supreme Court yesterday infected another freedom: our Miranda rights. A suspect now can't shut up cops in...
