Blogcation
hey everyone!
I realize I haven’t posted in awhile, and wanted you all to know I am alive and well. I’m just taking a brief blogcation: there’s only so much writing a guy can do before he has to refresh the old brain. Besides, I’ve been up to my eyeballs in work-related writing, [...]
A Failure of Leadership
Over at Daily Kos, some fucking hippy is arguing that defeat is a winnign strategy. No, i’m totally serious:
Geez, don’t you get it yet? The more Obama is seen extending his hand and the more the Republicans obstruct, the more likely it is that the average American out there will get the message that the [...]

If there was one person in the Philadelphia blogosphere that was an outspoken critic of the Barack Obama candidacy, it was Susie Madrak. Susie’s never been one to mince words, and as a result she was vilified for her point of view. I know, because I was one of the people who would [...]

Sam is visiting, so I’m not really doing too much blogging this week. However, there’s some good stuff brewing. Later this evening, I’ll be writing about our adventures with US Airways’ incompetence, as well as their surely deliberate failure to implement a complaints department (amazingly, only accessible via FAX, I shit you not).

Jane Hamsher Scarred Me Tonight
This is one of the most disturbing but hilarious metaphors I have ever heard. The opportunities for photoshopping are simply maginificent.

Back in March, I noted my number one post was my tribute to Meghan McCain’s breasts.
That’s funny enough. This weekend, it got even better.
As you’ve all noticed, I haven’t been blogging as much lately (something I wrote about earlier this month). So color me surprised when I looked at my sitemeter this saturday, typically one [...]
Reaching the Point
I’m sure quite a few of my readers have noticed I haven’t been updating as much here as I used to, and i figured you’re owed an explanation.
Primarily, work has been REALLY busy. I’m a grant writer working in one of the worst funding climates I’ve ever experienced. So I’ve been really busy looking for [...]
