A few posters for your delectation
It’s a holiday, so I’m doing light holiday blogging. However, I’ve lined up for early next morning a BIG POST, so be sure to check it out. Until then:

Thursday late afternoon round-up and Open Thread
Sorry for the long silence today. It’s just that, well, I’ve been busy. In addition to home maintenance and chauffeuring, I swear that someone has wanted to talk to me (by phone, in person, or through text) every 10 minutes all day long. Honestly, I don’t know why because I
Continue readingDown and dirty post: lots of pictures and videos
I haven’t had a minute to myself since 8 a.m. This therefore seems like a good time for a quick post consisting of videos and posters. Videos first: And now the posters: (Thanks to Earl, Sadie, and Caped Crusader.)

It’s quite amazing watching DemProg heads explode on my “real me” Facebook page. To hear them tell it, the Hobby Lobby decision was four white religious men banning women’s right to contraception across America because a mean-spirited Christian corporation demanded that they do so. I’ve been doing my best to

[I’ve got to run, but I don’t want to delay publishing this by two or three hours. I’m therefore publishing as is. Please forgive the inevitable typos.] I was reading an enjoyable book about the clash between good and evil. I commented to a friend that the only problem with

It’s been one of those days, beginning at 7 a.m. when the rolls of no-mow lawn arrived. After that came the inspector for some construction work we had, the men installing the lawn, the Sears repairman for my stubbornly broken washer, the cleaning ladies (bless them), and the pool cleaner.

Perspective is a good thing. In the middle of the night, one of my children woke me up with the news that he felt really sick and had already thrown up all over his carpet. I tucked him up on a couch and waited until morning to inspect the damage.

It’s a ridiculously beautiful day here, the kind that screams out “God’s in his Heaven, and all’s right with the world.” It’s therefore quite discordant to read headlines and realize that God may be in his Heaven, but Obama is in the White House, the DemProgs are in charge of

I’m just thankful that the washer wasn’t doing a bleach load when it decided to break. And I’m thankful that the clothes were mostly rinsed of detergent (indeed, there was so little detergent in them that they weren’t actually cleaned). And I’m thankful that I was able to wring the

Looking at recent headlines, I’m tempted to stop calling this a round-up and to start calling it “Today’s trip through the Looking-Glass.” How in the world did we get to this pass, where everything that once was safe and normal is now turned on its head? And no, I don’t expect

Lots of stuff, little time; skipping preliminary commentary and diving right in: When I die, I want to be reincarnated as Thomas Sowell. There is nobody with his ability to cut through the effluvia on any issue and, in simple language, hone in on the core matter. In this case,
Continue readingTuesday round-up and Open Thread — the “Obama at Chipotle” edition
Apparently the thing that impressed people most about Obama’s visit to Chipotle was the image of him completely ignoring the sanitation barrier so that he could get his burrito exactly the way he wants it. It reminded me of a crude saying about stuck up women: “She thinks her [fecal

Whether you devour this post in one fell swoop or nibble at it throughout the day, I can guarantee you a lot of food for thought: The VA scandal is gaining traction, as word comes out that the VA already knew back in 2010 that hospitals were manipulating records. Robert

This day has offered an embarrassment of riches when it comes to interesting news and good posts. Without further ado…. This goes to my earlier point about the degradation of black culture at white elitist hands: Towson University’s all-black Team won a national debating championship using incoherent babble sprinkled with

Family took precedence this weekend. I was able to read stuff while I waited here and there for various family members, but I never got to my computer to post anything. I therefore have a huge backlog of articles and posts that I found interesting and would like to share
