Obama And Vindication

by in Political Beefs | 2,944 views | Reading Time 3:20

As I sit here today, less than 24 hours from casting my vote in our Presidential election tomorrow, I have become apathetic. I sit here and wonder how so many of our citizens can be led so blindly as if promised treasures on earth for their vote. I am ashamed of our political process and […]

Here we are, less than a few days until we know who our next President will be. Excitement, tension, nervousness, and general anxiety may be filling your next few days depending on how involved you are with politics and the government future of our country. If you’re an Obama supporter, I would imagine you are […]

Worst Thing

by in Everyday Nonsense | 2,798 views | Reading Time 2:21

Today, while watching The View… oh, I mean the fourth hour of the NBC Today Show… honest mistake… Hoda Kotb mentioned something which made me think. While they were theorizing over the recent photos showing Elizabeth Edwards not wearing her wedding ring, Hoda began a brain dump over Elizabeth’s issues. She ranged from mentioning her […]

Utterly Amazed

Journalistic reports from our major media outlets tend to amaze me in the sense of their audacious and sensationalistic approaches to “unbiased” news. However, today, I am utterly amazed. I am beyond the simple awe struck, mouth agape, deer in the headlights look. When I first came across Campbell Brown’s assertion that Barack Obama was […]

Inspired Fiction

by in Movie Reviews | 2,901 views | Reading Time 2:42

I get excited when I see a new movie released which was “inspired by true events” or “based on a true story.” Something about real life turned into a cinematic experience draws me to these movies. Watching a movie based upon or inspired by actual events allows for a certain amount of vicarious living through […]

Crack Candy

Following up on the heels of yesterday’s smorgasbord article describing some of the recent news detailing our advancing “survival of the dumb” society I just couldn’t pass the following story up. Some things just deserve full attention for the absolute ridiculousness of the situation. Let me preface this by saying that I’m not making any […]

Smorgasbord Article

by in Everyday Nonsense | 2,414 views | Reading Time 3:11

Let’s try something different today. I’m going to give some quick hitting reactions to some generally oddball news that we seem to get treated to on a regular basis these days. I’m not sure if there just isn’t enough real news to fill the ledger anymore or if the laws of nature have reversed and […]

Pampered Attitude

by in Everyday Nonsense | 2,112 views | Reading Time 3:05

We all like to feel pampered… it makes us feel special and wanted. Pampering feeds our human need of appreciation. If we do not feel appreciated by those we are in contact with, we are likely to resent them. Resentment is a disease that will destroy any relationship over the long term with very little […]

Endorsements

Two weeks away from the Presidential election, I figured it was time for me to announce my candidate’s endorsement. Let the record show that I’m not endorsing anyone. However, since I believe that if you don’t exercise your right to vote, you don’t have any say or right to argue how things are being done […]
