Weekend Foodie Thread
There’s a reason I don’t post our daily Open Thread. My last “Weekend Foodie Thread” was in December! But since Spring has sprung, fresh veggies have returned and grills are being fired up I’m feeling inspired. And… I was asked about why I haven’t posted on this at the last Drinking Liberally! Let’s start with […]

Doodle 4 Google
Periodically, Google has contests to illustrate the Google banner. The latest contest is for US students. Why am I telling you this?

That Hypocrisy Show
wRong Williams is funny, not in the intentional stand-up comedian way, funny in a Gerry Ford-bumping-his-head-kind-of-way.

Delaware General Assembly Pre-Game Show Plus RANT: Tues., May 11, 2010
Not that it’s hard to do, but today I will demonstrate the sheer cravenness of politicians, especially, but not exclusively, legislators. J. L. Miller wrote an excellent article in yesterday’s News-Journal about the ‘one size fits all’ Scarlet Letter of the online sex offender registry, especially as it applies to minors. I have previously written […]
