I often wonder if I’m a good father, and I do my best. But these three pinheads make me feel like a superhero:

Man poisons children so he can try to sue Campbell’s
Man uses stun-gun on 18-month-old child
Man knocks out daughter, leaves her to freeze to death to cover it up

Three of the four children in [...]

I left town at 8:45am this morning. Regular unleaded gas was $2.04/gallon at the Casey’s in town, and $2.06/gallon at the Casey’s next town over.
I returned just before 12:00pm. Gas prices were up to $2.18/gallon.
What the hell happened? I pounced on the computer, thinking Chavez did something stupid, Bush did something stupid, or the Nigerians [...]

Whether you believe we’re in the Middle East for oil, religion, or terrorism, let’s set that aside for a moment. Instead, let’s think about the consequences of not getting involved there.
And I’m talking global consequences, not just America.
For the most part, we’d just have a political problem. The ethnic and religious groups would continue fighting [...]

…do not use UPS Mail Innovations. I’ve seen media mail from the post office move faster than this crap.
I purchased an item from Buy.com, but the product itself came from another vendor. That’s all well and good, but that vendor shipped my product via UPS-MI. Near as I can tell, all this service entails is [...]

As a horror writer, I occasionally catch crap for the things I write. Sometimes I’m told I’m being too gory, and other times I’m told things like “nobody can be that evil.”
Then I read about people like Robert William Pickton, who claims to have murdered as many as 49 people and disposed of them at [...]

“If tyrrany and oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy.”

My wife called Vonage today to disconnect our service. The decision had nothing to do with satisfaction or service, we just don’t need it anymore. She navigated through all the voice prompts and finally got a real operator.
She identified herself and told the guy why she was calling.
“We’re a bit busy right now, you’ll have [...]

Got a fat load of news links again. May as well knock ‘em all out at once.
Flag Fixed
The construction crew at the Freedom Tower hung the US flag incorrectly and had to fix it. I see this around town a lot; people just forget that the field of stars always goes in the upper left-hand [...]

Welcome to the Third World
Libya reinforces it’s turd-world nation status by condemning five nurses and a doctor to death for allegedly infecting 400 children with HIV. Though they were tried and convicted, I’m still saying allegedly because the court has ignored the medical science showing these children may have had HIV for as long as [...]

There’s a reason the stereotype of a politician as a rich snob exists, and there’s a perfect example of it in Las Vegas right now. You see, Vegas is doing their best to get rid of homeless people, and they’re doing what politicians do best: passing laws.
One of those laws bans sleeping within 500 feet [...]
