  • nancy pelosi would be proud

    inspired by last tuesday\’s Democratic Revolution, yesterday sara and i celebrated by doing what all good liberals should do: join a co-op. (the hybrid car purchase and the subscription to the new york times are forthcoming.) for a surprisingly low fee, we are now part-owners (whatever that\’s worth) of Valley Natural Foods in apple valley.…

  • Halloween… DEAD!

    Halloween has been declared dead… or at least it is in France.  Many of us don\’t think about how holidays here in the US are not celebrated the world over.  The fourth of July is an obvious one, but Thanksgiving is only celebrated in the US and Canada (and not at the same time).  According to…

    i was about to thank sparklegirl for sharing this.  but when someone shares something that negatively affects you for the rest of your life, is \”thanks\” appropriate?  

  • All the Presidents, Men

    Watch it now before the new Google overlords round up all who watch this to toil in their underground sugar caves… I love the George W Bush snore, and as much as I love the Daily Show, I\’ll admit it – I miss Killby a little bit. AND… KO\’s gonna run another \”special comment\” tonight…

  • An Etc. Post

    So over on the side blog I\’ve been running a quasi-daily category in which I single out a blog post or two worthy of your consideration. But today\’s been a gold mine of sorts here on the tubes of the internet, so I thought I\’d bring the whole thing over here for a longer post.…

  • Give and Take

    A snippet of dialogue from the cheap seats* at last night\’s Twins game. wadE: \”Who\’s that #75 down in the bullpen?\” Alex (helpfully): \”That\’s the bullpen catcher.\” wadE (exasperated): \”Yeah, but what\’s his name?!\” Wade and Alex (in unison): \”Amundson.\” wadE: \”Ah yeah. It wasn\’t coming to mind. Didn\’t he explore the South Pole?\” Alex…

  • More Ramblings

    So I was logging out of my hotmail account yesterday, which for those of you in the know ummm… know this… that the logout dumps your right to msnbc.com.  While there I can\’t help but click on some of the trashy links, but one of them took me to CW TV.  If you go there…

  • feng shui

    a glance at my desk drawer would quickly show you that i\’m not really, well, organized.  that\’s been the case since childhood; many of my worst grades came in the \”Keeps Desk Neat and Orderly\” category.  (well, that and penmanship, but even then i knew that keyboards were the way of the future.)  i\’ve really…

    wadE finds time in his busy schedule for a snack. And not just any snack, it\’s the Big Texas Cinnamon Roll! Click here to read the article.

  • Help! Help! I\’m being oppressed!

    I knew it.  Grr.  Read this (and then come back).  This totally explains why my life has been so hard.  The deck has been stacked against me since birth; something completely out of control has forced me down a certain path, (ir)regardless of my natural-born abilities.  Woe, woe is me. But seriously, folks.  How can…
