Standing in the Rain for Webb: Adventures of a First-Time Volunteer Part 2

Today I staked out a small patch of territory at a local polling place in Verona, Virginia, volunteering to spread the last bits of good news about Jim Webb. And it was cold. I was assigned to greet folks at the polls from 7:30 AM to 12:30 PM. From the get-go, 7:30 AM is not a time that agrees with...

America: The Book Report

I must preface this paper with the statement that I have always wanted to read the Daily Show’s America (the Book), but didn’t know that it would be so loosely based on the tiniest semblance of fact. I mean, this book makes my essays sounds well-informed and downright serious. I even bought the...

Republicans and National Security

I know that in my writings I come off as quite Liberal leaning, but in many things I have a strong conservative background. I believe in smaller government that requires less taxation, equal rights for everyone, the rule of law, and accountable government. These days the Canadian conservative...

D-Day: a day of reverence and remembrance

I was about to get down to the nitty-gritty of the Ike-Kay love affair (fact or fancy); but it is D-Day, so let’s talk about war, not love. Why are you reading WWII? So you know to whom we should show our appreciation; those who gave their lives and those who went through hell and survived (John...

Genius George Will Article

Hillary Clinton, 60, Illinois native and Arkansas lawyer, became, retroactively, a lifelong Yankee fan at age 52 when, shopping for a U.S. Senate seat, she adopted New York state as home sweet home. She may think, or at least would argue, that when she was 12 her Yankees really won the 1960 World...

Brain Purge - 1

The motif of the past two days has been: monkey wrenches thrown into otherwise interesting plans. ::sigh:: Is it any wonder I have learned to be calm in the face of sudden events - or relatively calm, I think. Take yesterday. PLEASE take yesterday and throw it into the river of Lethe, I beg you. I...

France Dispatch #3

I believe I’m getting a cold. No surprise, in the last two days before I left for France, I was in the company of two different people with colds. So far it’s just a tickle in my throat, and the start of a generally crappy feeling. I keep pounding back the Cold FXand crossing my fingers. A bit...

Girl who Hates UPS

Absolutely hates UPS

So...Here I am again, waiting for UPS. I had to take the ENTIRE day off work so that the idiot delivery guy could make up his mind about whether or not he wants to give me my freakin box. Oh but this is only one of the many problems I have had with them. -It was last September, I had just moved to...

Weekend in New England (Fanilows, HOLLA!)

If there is anything more wonderful than autumn in New England, I sure don't know what it might be (well...except for Disneyland any time of year--but it's neck-in-neck)! You know, when you get depressed about your life and how things aren't working out exactly as you planned, it's time to remind...

We Got the Hands to Turn This Around

Wow, so yesterday was a LOT of fun! Tommy has weekends off, and after this whole Fred thing, he wanted to show me that he wants to be there for me, that he wants to stay with me, so we went to Wolfchase and hung out before seeing Iron Man. If you don't know about the whole Fred-thing, then let me...

Large Fat Mackerel..

six for a quarter. My neighbor Jason posted about this site the other day. You can go read old newspapers and I'm hooked! I'm working through the 1910 editions of the Richmond Times Dispatch where they "print all the news and print it first"..good for them. The news itself is pretty boring. The only...

No sleep + no food + djarum blacks + cold pizza = a stomach emptied of contents

Only one more exam to go. If only I could bring myself to study for it! Haha. But let's forget exams for the moment; they have enough of a presence in my waking life. So, I have gone on a huge online shopping frenzy, but so far I've only received about...1/5 of what I've purchased. It's strange. I...
