End of Silence

I spotted this over on Pharyngula. I was a little afraid I may have screwed up at least one of these, but happily, I can still pass 8th grade math with flying colors. How about you?

You Passed 8th Grade Math

Congratulations, you got 10/10 correct!

Could You Pass 8th Grade Math?

Abe Vigoda’s birthday last week prompted me to install the Abe Vigoda Status plugin for Firefox. I didn’t know that my actions would set off a chain reaction of star deaths over the weekend. Darrin McGavin was my favorite of the bunch. His roles in Christmas Story and Night Stalker make him a much loved [...]

For those friends and family that made it through the site move, I’m obviously behind in moving everything. I’m moving the “Picture of the Week” for the kids to Flickr. I’ll have a Flickr set for each kid. You’ll have to be a Flickr member and I’ll have to mark you as friend or family [...]

I’ll switch topics soon or at least finish moving over all the crap from the old site, I promise. But I’ve got politics on the brain after Tuesday night.
Sydney Blumenthal kicks ass.
And this post is completely awesome. I’ve got another new favorite blog, Mahablog. And don’t forget this.

George Bush doesn’t care about most of us. He’s got no idea what the average american has to deal with day-to-day and he certainly isn’t interested in finding out. I’m sure he’s never had to fight with a health insurance company over a claim. I’m sure he’s never had to decide between buying medicine for [...]
