When I was in college, I had a frat brother who was the queerest human male on this planet.  He wasn’t just gay, he was flaming.  He loved being gay and flaunted it excessively and publicly.  This guy was about six feet four inches and probably in the neighborhood of about three hundred pounds.  Now, [...]

Nah, not the blog again. We are. As in the family is. We’ve been building a house for over a year and now it’s somewhat sortof ready. So, blogging will be light for a few days or so.
Wish us luck!

A little thingy on prostitution

Posted by Moonage on 09 May 2007 | Tagged as: Comments from the Host

I got a whiff of this exchange from Captain’s Quarters in the form of a rebuttal of a rebuttal. In this exchange of rebuttals, they got very deep into the ethics of placing a value on personal services or something like that. It was too heavy for me at this moment in time. [...]

Why New Orleans is screwed, Part II

Posted by Moonage on 02 Jan 2007 | Tagged as: Comments from the Host

Normally I’d put this under the science blog, but this view isn’t scientific.  In the last year or so, New Orleans has had to deal with hurricanes, tornadoes, racism, rioting, looting, a prediction of a killer hurricane season with their defenses down, their mayor making stupid comments, the same mayor winning a second term, their [...]

The difference between Westboro “Church” and The Patriot Guard

Posted by Moonage on 30 Sep 2006 | Tagged as: Comments from the Host, Idiot of the day

Well, Westboro did show up the funeral of Sgt. Charles Jason Jones in London, which is very close to my home town. I sent them a message telling them their message wasn’t wanted here, but they came anyway, sorta. Here’s what their protest looked like:

That’s pretty much it. A couple of adults [...]

Westboro Baptist Church is visiting

Posted by Moonage on 27 Sep 2006 | Tagged as: Comments from the Host

The most disgusting group of Americans I know of are planning on visitng near my home town this Saturday.  They are the people that think carrying signs to funerals saying things like "God Hates Fags", "Thank God for Dead Soldiers", or "Thank God for IED’s" is a good thing.  I sent them a message on [...]

Re-writing history from the bully pulpit

Posted by Moonage on 25 Sep 2006 | Tagged as: Comments from the Host

Bill Clinton was on Fox New Sunday yesterday. Chris Wallace asked him why he didn’t do more to get Osama Bin Laden. Clinton went off. In usual Clinton fashion, he totally dodged the question by accusing Chris of being part of the vast Fox wing conspiracy.  The evidence of his accusation was Chris Wallace had [...]

Grenades for God

During the attack on the US Embassy in Syria during this past week, this description just kept bugging me:
Witnesses also said the gunmen tried to throw hand grenades into the embassy compound, shouting "Allahu akbar!" or "God is great!" It was not clear if any of the grenades made it over the walls, which are [...]

Bong Hits 4 Jesus

Things have changed in the US in a big way during my adult lifetime. And, it’s all the media’s fault. I have been a Republican my entire life. It wasn’t really a choice when I was young, but it has been for about 20 years. For about 100 years, there was [...]

Oil and terror

Posted by Moonage on 10 Aug 2006 | Tagged as: 2006 US Senate Races, Comments from the Host, Energy Policy, Events, National Politics, National Security, Oil Policy

Crude oil prices fell nearly $1 a barrel Thursday when thwarted attacks on airplanes led many carriers to cancel flights, which could mean lower demand for jet fuel and dented consumer confidence.
The easy speculation to make here is in order for the speculators to make money, a successful attack would have been preferable. The [...]
