Since the weekend, which was dominated by Lukobe’s wedding (it was a hell of a party), I’ve been devoting most of the time I’d otherwise spend writing to working on the new blog. The domain is already up and running and I’ve installed a very nice theme, but I have yet to customize the CSS [...]

Women in Pants
August 31st, 2009 · 13 Comments
For a somewhat lighter subject, I’d like to discuss the issue of women in pants. For some reason, pants have been cast as “liberating” for the modern woman. Exactly what pants liberate is a mystery to me, but I suppose they do have their practical uses. Pants are essential for horse-riding, mining, hunting in thick [...]

On Kid Duty
August 2nd, 2009 · 15 Comments
I haven’t been posting too much lately, but I have a pretty good excuse. I’ve got my kids for a couple weeks (ending on Friday), and at ages 3 and 4.5 they are a real handful. It never ceases to amaze me how they can just keep on going, and going and… Well, you get [...]

Boring Bellingham
April 26th, 2009 · No Comments
I spent a couple days in Bellingham recently, and found it to be too small to be enjoyable in the way cities are, but too big to have small town appeal. The downtown is unfortunately situated directly east of its huge, industrial dock complex, which cuts downtown off from the waterfront. This is probably Bellingham’s [...]

Why Illegal Aliens Work Harder than Americans
April 22nd, 2009 · 11 Comments
Just the other day I was listening to a radio show discussion concerning “handouts.” The discussion revolved around whether or not people should be given handouts without any demands in return. Some guy called up to complain about the people in New Orleans being lazy after the hurricane (both black and white folks, according to [...]

A New Look at the ERA — Men and the Equal Rights Amendment
April 16th, 2009 · 9 Comments
The ERA, first proposed during the women’s suffrage movement, has been debated for nearly a century, yet has never been adopted. The high water mark for the ERA was the early 1970s, when it finally gained bipartisan support (previously Democrats had opposed it) and was sent to the states for ratification. Over the next several [...]

The Trauma that Led to Obama’s Black Nationalism
November 3rd, 2008 · 13 Comments
I recently read Half-Blood Prince: Barack Obama’s Story of Race and Inheritance, Steve Sailer’s analysis of Obama’s autobiographical “Dreams from my Father,” and I found it to be a great exposé of the character of the candidate. Because I can relate closely to several key aspects of his early life, I am quite interested in [...]

Obama: Revenge of Generation X
October 19th, 2008 · 8 Comments
One of the great, unexplored factors at play in this election is the rise of Generation X’s political power and activity. It is unexplored because boomers are probably the most self-centered generation in the history of the United States, and they can’t imagine that their influence is anything but paramount. Take this AP article on [...]

Assault and Cattery
September 5th, 2008 · 4 Comments
I never thought I’d ever get involved in the lolcat genre, but a disgruntled neighbor forced my hand following an alleged altercation involving Nelson, my cat. According to the neighbor, Nelson attacked her cat, and when she tried to intervene he “lunged at her” and bit her leg. Following the incident, I had a phone [...]
