Warren Ellis discovers Daniel Johnston and a little part of me laughs and another little part of me cries and cries and cries because I may not feel guilty anymore, but I’ll always feel like I should- as though my ability to move on and not dwell on these things any longer were a deficiency and not a survival tactic. I have so very few people who actually matter, now. My life is filled with dozens of people that I honestly don’t care about anymore (but only when I’m being completely honest; th

This is a post from a crazy Christian homeschooling mom who happens to dislike gays. I say dislike, but she actually wants them “stoned to death and everything they touch blown up.” A friend recently sent me this article about a “gay-friendly” high school. If we were living in a biblical society, homosexuality would be punishable by death so such a school would be unnecessary. Although I’m against the special accommodations, perhaps this new trend of segregation will protect straight kids from

Another public service announcement from the Hard Starboard Radio Network.... "The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God." (Psalm 9:17) The subject of hell is widely ignored today, even by evangelical teachers and pastors. Heaven is commonly mentioned at funerals, of course, since almost everyone attending a funeral wants to think that the deceased has gone there (assuming there turns out to be such a place). Hell is rarely acknowledged as even a possibilit

Oyster Monday This is my favorite home away from home.Every Monday night, the DeWolf Tavern offers oysters at the bar for $1.00 each. I usually eat a dozen, along with a shaken Hangar One keffir lime vodka.Their oysters are always fresh, and they usually have at least three varieties available, sometimes more. About a year ago they decided to keep the focus on east coast varieties, which was fine with me, for I have always preferred the briny crispness of Atlantic oysters to the mud and grassy

This may not be the place or time but I do have to say something about CS4 which seems to have arrived with very little fanfare. The first thing I noticed when I opened it was a sense of disappointment. The interface has changed (again) but it didn’t have the "hmm, hmm" factor that CS3 held for me. At this point, two weeks and twenty tutorials later, I am thinking I am going to be happy. This from a woman who has been known to wax poetic over software. To be fair, I have undergone so many t

Normal 0 By Jim Nettleton I freely admit to being a fanatic about playing the great game of golf as well as being a lifelong fan of the professional game. I first started following the pro circuit when Arnold Palmer broke on the scene like a swashbuckling D’Artagnan. I quickly fell in love with the nearly poetic beauty of the game and became fascinated by Palmer’s bold adventures. From today’s perspective, we look back on those days, the days of television’s early feeble attempts at cove

As much progress the Wizards seemed to make in last Wednesday's preseason win in San Antonio, on Friday in Cleveland it all came unraveled. I don't take much stock in preseason results, losing by 28 points to the Cavaliers is nothing more than a meaningless number at this juncture. And as Caron Butler was quoted in the Washington Post, "It's not necessarily about shots made and missed. It's about energy and establishing some type of rhythm for the first group." All true.
