On July 6, 2010 at 7:04 am
Two hundred and thirty-four years have passed since we won our independence and became the United States of America.

Have You Had Your Sack Tapped Today?
On June 5, 2010 at 10:31 am
Johnny Knoxville and Jackass’ impact on America’s youth has finally become evident, as a slew of testicle related injuries have begun to plague the nation. Apparently teens have been literally hitting each other in the “boys” as a fairly sadistic new game in our public school hallways begins to take flight. So called “sack-tapping” is [...]

As a health care counselor, advocate, presenter, blogger and more, it’s been quite complicated to keep up with the day- in and day- out changes regarding the players in the “health care reform” fiasco this past year.

China Will Not ‘Bow’ To Obama
On February 4, 2010 at 5:59 pm
China is currently not very thrilled to be receiving economic advice from The US. I’m sorry did we say advice? We meant criticism. Obama recently stopped ‘very’ short of stating that China manipulates it’s currency. We don’t necessarily fault him, but they do. Their response: ‘we will not bow to the pressure from The United [...]

It has nothing to do with the whole ‘who’s going to pay for this’ conundrum or anything at all to do with the desire to assist during a time of crisis. But EVERYTHING to do with a lack of space (really?). And a little bit with the fact that some states are refusing to accept [...]

After hearing the doctor utter those words, all I could hear thereafter was la la la la la as my [...]

TOBY KEITH – “American Ride” (CD Review)
On November 2, 2009 at 9:34 amLabel: Showdog Nashville Remember when it was cool to be in-your-face-patriotic? Ah, good times… Back in those days of a proud U.S.A., Toby Keith was the spokesman for pro-American sentiment.

Good, Clean Family Comedy?
On September 29, 2009 at 12:07 am
