Emergency Shallow Twits Award
Please, Tipper, Make Him Stop!
We’ve been trying to keep the water pipes intact for over a week.
I woke up at 1:30 AM, like I do every morning. I crawled out of my hole of a bed. It has a slow leak so it needs to be aired up every thirty minutes. After… Read full post »

The truth is that I’m a congenital vegetarian. I didn’t know that until I had my first child, but I knew, from the first time somebody tried to put dead animal puree on my lips, that I didn’t want dead animals in my mouth.

Hot Organic Farmers-Sign of the Apocalypse?
Oh, yeah. Hot organic farmers, oh wait, we better capitalize that. Hot Organic Farmers. That’s better. Hot Organic Farmers are probably a sign of the Apocalypse, if for no other reason than the list of hotties includes Michelle Obama.

Somebody Wuz Robbed
Let’s recap. Iran had elections to choose a president. All the pre-election polls said that Ahmadinejad was ahead and expected to win. So what happened? Who snatched the majority of the people’s votes away from Ahmadinejad? Who rigged the elections so that Ahmadinejad didn&r… Read full post »

Today's Shallow Sex Twits Award
I’ve assumed my whole adult life that, unless you say otherwise, you’re having sex. Never once did it cross my mind that you might have some need to journal it, or that it happens so infrequently that you need to take notes on any occurrence of it, you know, in order… Read full post »
