Portland Watches the Watchmen

Who watches the Watchmen?
About 300 or so lucky bastards in Portland, Oregon last night – yours truly and her husband NOT INCLUDED.
Here’s the scoop: The usual tom-foolery of my morning includes wrangling with a hot iron, finding relatively clean un-ironed clothes to wear, exercising the dog and ferret – AND surfing the net.
Wellll – the Comic [...]

Oh, Election Fraud

It seems like this becomes a huge issue every four years – with obvious partisan politics infecting what is the only time Americans get to vote on a national level.
It’s disheartening and depressing to read about. All those claims to people that every vote counts (when they don’t count every vote) and that if you [...]

The Top 50%

If you make more than $32,000 a year, welcome to the richer half of the nation.
Hey baby, we’re on the rise to the top! Maybe Paris Hilton will be my best friend now?
Awww – looks like she’d rather make sweet love to a hamburger. Ah well – at least I get to pay [...]

American Portraits: Racism and Sexism

Here are a few snippets of racism and sexism as reflected in American media and politics, both encountered within the last 24 hours. Both incredibly disheartening. We’ll start with the more obvious first.

Let’s Get Invincible

Invincible
This book is penned by one of my favorite Zombie authors, Robert Kirkman, he’s an [...]

Hockey Mom on Trial

In case you might have been swayed by the shmoozey and down-home charm of Sarah Palin during the Vice-Presidential debate, you might want to read this article.
She’s about to go on trial for abuse of power.
Does that sound familiar?
Oohh – hurts cause it’s true.

I Hate The Bailout

That would make a nice bumper sticker.
Although it seems simple – purely hating the bailout doesn’t mean I don’t support the ideas behind it. I would honestly much rather see $700 Billion go towards stabilizing our economy than a perpetual war on an idea (*cough* terrorism *cough*). But that’s just me. I liked the idea [...]

Chad Vader – Day Shift Manager

Lazy blogging alert. Hey – it’s the first week of Fall Term, be happy with this and not the crappy semi-literate-barely-slap-dashed-together shit review that I was going to post. I’ll save that for when my coherency level is operating at full throttle.
Continuing the growing obsession with all things Star Wars…and in conjunction with trying to [...]
