Alright! That's it!

I'm officially calling for a boycott of all biased media. No more NBC's The Today Show, no more Oprah, no more The View, no more NBC Evening News even! These programs are so completely biased, so unbelievably slanted that I just can't bare to watch. So sugary sweet are they to one end of the political spectrum that my teeth end up hurtting after only a little while. They smile and throw softballs at anyone leaning their way while they bulldoggingly attempt to entrap and trip-up those who refuse to go along.

I wonder, in the face of so quickly attaching 'President Elect' to 'Obama', why it is they had such a hard time attaching 'President' to 'Bush', opting instead for the all to frequent 'Mister'. The title of the office is 'President'. It's not unlike the common courtesy extended to 'Doctors', so why can't it be extended to the office holder. Resisting the temptation, I will call the President, 'President', no matter the party.

I wonder how long they'll hang in there with their boy, what kind of learning curve will they allow, what kind of tolerance and understanding they'll throw his way. I can only imagine, a whole lot more than they gave the sitting President they want so badly the hang in effigy.

On an only slightly related note, now that President Elect Obama has had his top level briefing by the CIA, I wonder if he has any new insights into the decision making of President Bush.

Best... no longer...

The best shows that are no longer on the air include...

  • Homefront in the Garden, BBC
  • Ground Fource, BBC
  • In A Fix, TLC
  • West Wing, NBC
  • SportsNight, ABC (I think)
I'm hoping, one day, to find full episodes on DVD, online or on whatever format exists when these shows get rereleased, if that day ever comes.

I'm sure I'll be updating this post when others come to me.

I Scream, You Scream, We all Scream for...

Did I miss something? Since when did a half-gallon of ice cream become 1.75 Quarts? Did someone forget that there are 4 quarts in a gallon, which means 2 quarts in a half-gallon? Is this too complicated? It must have happened at the same time that the price went up.

Well, I don't like it. Not even one little bit. I want my .25 quarts of ice cream back! By my calculations, thats 48 spoonfuls of ice cream that's no longer in my freezer.

Senator McCain, Senator Obama - you want my vote? Start running on the half-gallon ice cream platform.

OK, I admit it...

I've been distracted. I'd like to say it's been by some noble cause, some form of making the world, or someone else, or myself better - but it hasn't really. Yeah, there's been some of that. I'd certainly put parenting in the noble cause box, along with trying to be a decent husband. I'm also happy to place the noble cause label on teaching and being involved with church.

Yet, still, my garage is a before picture for some reality show about cleaning and organizing, my yard looks like it should be on the cover of Trailer Home Monthly, and there are plenty of other items on the To Do list destined for the same demise.

I blame it all on facebook.



The first step, I'm told, in breaking an addiction is admitting you have one. I guess I'm not ready to break this one yet. I'm handling it. I haven't started neglecting my hygine - nevermind the afternoon showers, I'm on summer vacation. I don't have too many plates of half eaten food and half drank containers piled up around me - mine are all eaten and all drank thank you very much. But, the truth of the matter is, my friends have to check my facebook status to know what I'm up to, and my family only gets to see us through our facebook photo albums.

Maybe I'll start blogging again. Heaven knows, my wife and kids give me enough reason to. Until then, the summer of change is underway! Organize. Prioritize. Clean. Garage. Bonus Room. Yard. Weight. Doctor Appointments. Dentist Appointments. New Classroom. Budget. Taxes. Family. Friends. Trips.

And there's not much time left!

I feel Icky

I can never remember, is it "Feed a fever, starve a cold." or "Starve a fever, feed a cold." - I mean, it's not like "Righty-tighty, lefty-loosey", that makes sense. Another one that gets me is the one about the color of the sky, something about weather, and whether or not you should sail your ship - that one's so obscure I can't remember more than that.

All I know is that I don't like being sick. Besides feeling icky, I feel stupid whenever I try to get those two little cold pills out of the impossible blister pack. I'm sick for crying out loud - I'm shakey, listless, queezy and on edge - give me my medicine already! If it weren't for scissors, my cold would surely turn into cholera.
