Dear whoever found my blog searching for this term: “losing my virginity flow chart.”
Why would you search for that phrase? I get plenty of visits from people looking for deflowering videos, deflowering ceremonies, deflowering nuns, losing my virginity, etc., but a flow chart?
Okay, now I need to actually make up the flow chart. I picture it involving alcohol somewhere along the line.
One of my frequently frequented grocery stores is closing. Sunshine Mart, which has been around since the 1940s or earlier (Chappie, did you ever shop there?) is in the process of shutting down.
The store was a popular one in the valley. One woman (((Wife))) knows remembers shopping there when she was a kid. The family running the store understood tight budgets (nine kids in the family and dad had died in a coal mining accident) and, if mom was a little short that week (or month) they put it ‘on her tab’ which, oddly, never came due. Good people. Read the rest of this entry »
First off, let me wish everyone a Happy National Turkey Genocide Day. Of course, being different, we had a roast chicken. And mashed potatoes (homemade). And roasted Brussels sprouts. And cranberry sauce. I am now fulfilling another Thanksgiving Day tradition by watching the Lions lose. And, while I digest all the good stuff, here’s a useful recipe for anyone who has vegetarians for dinner (if vegetarians eat vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?): vegetarian stuffing (and yes, I know this would have been more useful a week ago, but (((Wife))) and I wanted to test our idea to see if it was edible).

The radical Christian right (the folks who assassinate doctors, teach children lies about their bodies, try to force their special version of unreality into American public school classrooms and, basically, are trying to create an American Christian version of Iran) have a thing about sex. Specifically, they are paranoid about sex. They are afraid that somewhere, a woman might be enjoying the act.
Christian children, the children of radical Christians, are taught that sex is bad. Physical contact is bad. Physical pleasure is bad. Being anything other than exactly what your parents say your preacher says the Bible says God says you should be is bad. And touching yourself (or others) is bad. Being human, in other words, is bad.
So what about hugs? Are hugs okay? Read the rest of this entry »
When I graduated from college with an honours degree in history, I moved to Rhode Island and spent about a year selling cars (well, it was a history degree, right?). I enjoyed Rhode Island. Nice state. Rather liberal. Delightfully bizarre. But, like the rest of New England, definitely a blue state. Read the rest of this entry »
Many conservatives (both political conservatives and religious conservatives) have a dream of transforming America from a secular democracy to a theocratic Christian democracy (picture Iran but with Robertson, Dobson, Haggard, etc. filling in for the Imams). So how would America be different if that happened? Read the rest of this entry »
Not that it means anything, but today, I passed 100,000 visits to my blog. I try not to obsess about my numbers, but I do pay attention to them — in 2008, I averaged 107 visits per day. This year, I’m averaging 207 per day. Not to shabby for part time blogger, eh?
Conservatives are the backbone of America. Their respect for the Constitution of the United States, their respect for the laws of America, their respect for the President of the United States of America (whether they agree with his political views or not), their battles for equal rights for all humans, and their Christian ethics, including a sense of love and respect for all life are the epitome of exemplars of good old fashioned Americanism to which we should all aspire.

I did have H1N1 Influenza, 2009 (Novel). Which, in a weird way, makes me feel better. I would hate to think that I was sick for the past month and did not have the Swine Flu.
A few months ago, I posted (twice) about a school in Kentucky where the district had no problem with the football coach taking the kids, sans permission slips, to a Baptist revival, but required a signed note from mom and dad to watch President Barrack Obama tell the kids to work hard and stay in school. Wait. It gets worse (from The Political Carnival): Read the rest of this entry »
