warning - be careful where you read

Warning: Do not read Scott Ott’s “Laughing at Obama” in quiet public places or on planes. On a return flight from D.C., the passengers around me had just settled in for their naps, but much to their dismay I had brought Scott’s book along with me to read. The wit and humor within its pages made it impossible to refrai...n from laughing out loud. Thanks Scott for bringing lightheartedness to a subject that we are so frustrated with, though my fellow plane passengers might not want to thank you for their lack of sleep.

we're in debt and we blame you



I videoed these girls at the 912 DC March. Their parents did not coach them. Their message to Congress is clear.

After excitedly cooking up our first batch of our home grown bacon I can say that it wasn't bad.  It wasn't the best bacon I have ever had either. The meat was good: I just wasn't head over heals about the cure.  Next time we will get the bacon from the butcher and smoke it ourselves.  I could go on about the health benefits from knowing what goes into your food, but overwhelmingly the satisfaction came from the meat resulting from our own efforts. Tomorrow we will see how those baby back ribs are like.

Yes, I do like it crispy.
