Obama campaigned hard on a race-bridging platform.

Oh, how we loved the story about his white grandparents and how Obama is the new, true face of Americana.

Pure, unadulterated bullshit.

Obama is a racist right up there with the likes of Trent Lott, Jesse Helms, Strom Thurmond, George Wallace, and Da… Read full post »

Now that Christmas is over and you're pondering what to do with that unwanted gift, please consider the following.

I just figured it out, this fascination with OS and its inherent problem.

Most of the great OS writers are stumbled upon by happenstance. Other times you will get an invite to check out someone's prose.

But the problem lies with the inadvertant finds. Just when I think I don't have… Read full post »

Now touch your bloody finger to his.

You’re in.

I’m in.

I belong.

Walking slowly home before it’s dark.
