Democrats consider spending cuts!

Millions of dollars behind in raising money and unlikely to meet a fast-approaching final deadline, the Denver committee hosting the Democratic National Convention is considering spending cuts.
Too bad they don’t do the same when it comes to the budget our tax dollars pay.

For fun today…

… I went to The Official Website for the City of Richmond, Virginia. Only it wasn’t all that fun. And it isn’t properly named; it should be called The Official Website for the Shameless Self Promotion of the Mayor of Richmond, Virginia.
He has his picture* in the header. A link to a [...]

Get a Grip!

Before you blow a gasket, start talking about a B-O-Y-C-O-T-T and how the “prejudices of society raised their ugly heads” maybe you should try contacting the organization you think is discriminating against you. Subway is holding a writing contest for students where the grand prize includes $5,000 worth of athletic equipment for the winner’s elementary [...]

Hillary keeps it classy!

What’s funnier than a southern governor joking about a black Presidential candidate being shot?

If you ever wondered…

what a squid would look like if someone were wearing it, wonder no more.

Pandering to the 1%

A new prayer book, with all male references removed, has been released by the Movement for Reform Judaism in Britain.
Only 1% of people think of God as female, with 62% considering God to be male, the online survey conducted earlier this month of 1,050 adults in Britain found.
It doesn’t say what the other 37% [...]

Unfair Advantage?

Does a runner without legs have an advantage over those that do?
First of all, I think it should be celebrated that technology has advanced so far that we even have to consider the question. We’ve come a long way from the peg legs of Long John Silver.
Oscar Pistorius’s lower legs were amputated when he was [...]
