I was in Hampton Roads over the Columbus Day Weekend, and all the local channels showed the McCain/Palin rally on TV. I was very scared. Totally reminded me of this, from Cabaret:Very scary stuff, indeed. I wonder if they have any idea how Nationalist they sound? Well, I think McCain might, but I don't think Palin has a clue.

Well, it's been a week, so I think I can finally talk about my trip to Dublin for the Bingham Cup. In a nutshell, trip from hell. I don't know if it was the Friday the 13th, or just bad karma, but it seemed like everything that could go wrong, did.Let's see, how was my trip?My flight to Dublin on Tuesday night was delayed, and then finally cancelled at 1:30 in the morning. Due to storms and

Leaving for Dublin in a few hours.Been a crazy week.This week's words of advice is to let things go.If you disagree with something that you can't change, just let it go. Don't expend inordinate amounts of time and energy complaining when you can just accept it and rise to the challenge. Certainly don't bring lawsuit after lawsuit in the hopes you can get the result you want. Let God and let

A few months ago, DurbanBud had a great open thread about what people listen to while having sex with their loved one (or trick, depending).Most of the responses were very classy, such as smooth jazz, Enya, Enigma, Nina Simone, classical, and the like.I can tell you what is NOT a good thing to listen to while attempting to have sex with your partner.Kathy Griffin's I Am A Strong Black Woman

So have you heard about this story that evil blogger Michelle Malkin is making a big fuss over the fact that Rachel Ray is wearing a scarf in her new Dunkin' Donuts ad? Apparently Malkin thinks that Ray is supporting Palestinian terrorism because the scarf looks like something a Middle Eastern muslim would wear.And now Dunkin' Donuts is caving and pulling the ads! Unbelievable. Talk about

I'm beginning to develop a real aversion to holidays. I don't know what it is, but I just have not been able to enjoy any holidays lately. I mean, I wish I was the person who had the fabulous Memorial Day Weekend beach plans or that we were the couple who were invited to three different barbeques to celebrate the long weekend. But I'm not. Those invites are not forthcoming. And I had a

Been a busy week at work. Lots of stuff going on in preparation for a conference we're holding in the end of June.More rugby this past weekend. Everything is going well. Team is a good bunch of guys, playing well, good morale, good skills. And for some reason, after 8 years, Bob is into rugby now, so he is coming to all the matches and practices instead of doing other stuff. One more match
