I am preparing one of the final classes I will be teaching for an online for-profit university. I say “one of the final” because the institution is circling the drain, and I was only offere...

There is a minor kerfuffle happening on Twitter right now, whereby some antifa found her live-in boyfriend lying dead. He, too, was apparently some well-known “punch a Nazi” antifa. She t...

I started blogging again in part because we really are living in interesting times. I want to document how great it is for those of us who love Trump. I already regret not blogging the ramp u...

Growing up, I read all the time. In my small Texas town, the school librarian would give me the catalogs she received and had me order new books, because I knew the library better than she did....

I am re-reading some of my old posts. What a blast from the past. I had a good laugh at one post from 2006, where I exclaimed delightfully over a pediatrician’s blog called “Dr. Flea .”...

There is a lot of wisdom here . Penn Jillette thinks he is making an obvious point ("Of course we don't mock those who will kill us. Whaddya think we are-- stupid?", but he misses the mark en...

One of the many differences between women and men, at least on the right-hand side of the IQ bell curve, is that men will have a thought and pursue it relentlessly via blogging, while women often...
I find it interesting that there are very few web pages which contain the words “‘elke the stallion’ AND steatopygia,” according to Google. I do not have any stimulating or relevant thi...

I admit that this is the main reason why I have started blogging again. VD posted his “Reading List 2013” and I realize that I haven’t been keeping track. Buying a Kindle changed my li...

I’m Back! I cannot believe I started this blog in 2004. Has it been ten years? I intend to start blogging again in the tradition of blog as a diary. I have been missing telling the trut...
I haven't blogged in over 20 months! Mostly, I haven't had much to say. However, I am feeling more heartened now than I ever have before. A momentous thing is happening this year, a thing that re...
I was actually cheered up by a NYT article , for once. The internet has really allowed people to circumvent the traditional marketing chain. This is wonderful news for creative types! I haven't ...

For the heck of it, I went Googling to find a word which means “lover of Scotland or all things Scottish,” in the vein of “Francophile” and “Anglophile.” I found two words, neither of...
Thank you to Majority Rights for a pointer to the band Show of Hands . Wow! I love acoustic folk music, but usually just ignore the lyrics. For example, I adore Tracy Chapman and the Indigo Girl...
