Inherently Different

otherside

Frank had an interesting image with an interesting viewpoint on his blog today. I would consider myself unkind if I didn’t offer an opposing viewpoint using the same bumper sticker philosophy. Either can be considered correct depending on which side of the fence you are on… the side with the sheep, or the side with … Read more

breeders and intelligence

NOTE: This post was protected originally. Then I realized, I have nothing to hide. This is the text verbatim of the email conversation as it was. If the person somehow finds it, well, so be it. At least she might realize how idiotic some of her ramblings were (doubtful, but one can only hope). In … Read more

two in the bush

There are currently 98 oil producing countries in the world, of which 64 are thought to have passed their geologically imposed production peak, and of those 60 are in terminal production decline. While some may argue, I am a deep thinker. Not that my thoughts are in any way deep, just that when I think, … Read more

promised you a miracle

Like the last two elections before, the Republicans are hoping that common sense is in short supply when Americans stoll into the voting booth in 2008. They are hoping that enough democrats waste their votes on candidates such as Ron Paul, that the republicans can again steal another election. Back in 2000 and 2004, a … Read more

the color of justice

Our society lost its way in the late 80s. We started to deify celebrity to such an extent, we began to lose focus about truly important issues. Around the same time white apologists began a campaign to “right the wrongs” of their culture by calling attention to the many injustices whites held over blacks. The … Read more

stupid girl

I am sure some of you will find this insulting, but people are not only lazy, but they are oftentimes stupid. Stupid because so many people are not willing to exert a little energy to verify things before they go off half-cocked into the world. Someone whom they value/appreciate says, “This is happening,” and rather … Read more

money

By nature I am a gambler. In fact, at one point one might say my gambling was an issue with me… not a problem, because problem denotes negative experiences. I never lost money I didn’t have. I would fluctuate from being ahead by $50k to being absolutely broke-ass. I never borrowed money, nor did I … Read more

hammer time

“Yes . . . F—ING Yes!!! I LOVE MY JOB, it takes everything reckless and deviant and heathenistic (sic) and just overall bad about me and hyper focuses these traits into my job of running around this horrid place doing nasty things to people that deserve it . . . and some that don’t.” – … Read more

ride on

[xspf]_start(FALSE, ‘order=12’)[/xspf] Life is rarely ever what it promises to be. As a child, outside of the incessant worrying about this shadow or that noise, the prevailing thought on a new mind is that the world is big. So big that it can’t all be taken in at once. Every turn of the head, every … Read more

mom is a four letter word

My mother is (was? i am not sure, I haven’t spoken to her for more than 15 years) a pathelogical liar. This is a condition that I became aware of rather early. When my father would come home and she would make up stories about how my brothers and I had misbehaved to explain the … Read more
