How Much of a Slut Are You?

Wednesday, March 1st, 2006

According to Slut-o-Meter, I’m so not a slut that I come in around -43.13% slut. Which, according to Slut-o-meter, means:
The only way this horse’s ass can get laid is to sexually harass women.
Um. yeah. I have much better luck sexually harassing men. (Not that I would sexually harass anyone unless explicitly invited to do so, […]

Dealing Dogs

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2006

There are at least three kinds of people I just have no tolerance for: child abusers/molesters, spouse abusers, and people who abuse or are cruel to animals. On a seemingly unrelated note, I also love documentary films. So, when I read the Washington Post review of HBO’s documentary Dealing Dogs, about an undercover investigation […]

More Great GOP Moments in Black History

Friday, February 10th, 2006

Yup. The second installment of “Great GOP Moments in Black History” is up. Catch it at PoliticsTV.

Brokeback Heart Attack

Sunday, February 5th, 2006

This is funny. 

Strong willed Baptist Pastors across this Christian nation have been keeping mum regarding their concerns about the popularity of the new pro-sodomite film, “Brokeback Mountain.” There is an unspoken edict among conservative religious leaders to keep silent their opinions about the film, in hopes to quell the onslaught of misguided popularity that usually […]

Find the Fundie

Wednesday, January 25th, 2006

Too busy with work to do much blogging today, but I did come across this funny little quiz that asks you to decide which well known fundamentalist made which outrageous statement, including:
The government is committed to supporting God’s religion, the country remains a strong bulwark for religion, and the people are among the most […]

Celebrity Look-Alike, Too

Tuesday, January 24th, 2006

I’ve been at home with the kid all day, so not much in the way of extensive blogging today (except for a post I wrote last night), but this proved an interesting diversion. If you go to myheritage.com and upload a picture, they’ll analyze it and tell you which celebrities you resemble. I tried […]

Wikipedia Wrap-Up: Bogus Biographer Busted

Sunday, December 11th, 2005

This is a follow-up to the previous post concerning the false Wikipedia entry about John Seigenthaler. There have been some astounding developments since Seigenthaler published his account. First Wikipedia has started requiring registration for users to edit articles. Now, the author of the bogus Seigenthaler bio has been caught.

Brian Chase, 38, who until Friday […]

How Online Organizing Made a Novelist of Me

Friday, December 9th, 2005

Crossposted from my EchoDitto blog.
I’ve always been a writer. I haven’t always been confident about calling myself a writer. I guess it’s because I discovered long ago that telling people you’re a writer almost always meant their next question would be “What books have you written?” That usually resulted in a lot hemming a hawing […]

When Wiki Writers Attack

Saturday, December 3rd, 2005

I have to be honest. Despite my line of work, I still haven’t entirely quaffed the wiki kool-aid. Blogging is one thing, but something about a reference source that’s editable by anybody makes me a little wary. John Seigenthaler, Sr.’s story only reinforces that wariness.

“John Seigenthaler Sr. was the assistant to Attorney General Robert Kennedy […]

A Lotta Depp’ll Do Ya

Sunday, November 13th, 2005

More mindless celebrity worship. I’ve waxed on and on about Joaquin Phoenix lately, but he’s only one of my favorite actors to stare at for 90 minutes or more at one sitting. He’s also one of the top three on my surprisingly popular (181 comments and counting) list of the sexiest men alive, along with […]

Frapper

Thursday, October 27th, 2005

I don’t know how I missed hearing about Frappr until now, but it looks pretty neat. It allows you to put in your zip code (not your address) to be added to a map as a part of a group. I thought it would be an interesting way of seeing how widespread the readership […]

The Non-Reality Based White House

Tuesday, October 25th, 2005

I don’t know how I missed this. Apparently the Bush administration sent a warning to The Onion concerning use of the presidential seal.

You might have thought that the White House had enough on its plate late last month, what with its search for a new Supreme Court nominee, the continuing war in Iraq and the […]

Google Me

Friday, October 21st, 2005

I’m with Meghann. Once I finish the book for NaNoWriMo, if it ever finds it’s way to a publisher, I want the damn thing on Google.

Lack of exposure is the primary reason that a book like mine would fail in the marketplace. I spend most of my day trying to get attention for my book. […]

DemsTV Part Deux

Monday, October 10th, 2005

I’m headed to another taping of DemsTV this evening. With everything going on in the political sphere, it should be pretty interesting. The turnaround on posting the episodes seems to be pretty quick, so I’ll be sure and post it here when this week’s show is up.
