Recently a friend asked me if I was pro-choice or pro-life. I answered that I as much as I hate the use of abortion as birth control I am against having the government legislate this process. In a way, I guess I am pro-life where the practice of abortion is concerned but I am pro-choice […]

Like most of us in the US, I woke to the news of the terrible tragedy in Aurora, CO. The “breaking news” alert might have been what woke me at 5:46am. Breaking news alerts of this sort seem to come on a regular basis these days, so much so that I almost skim over them […]

I think this preoccupation with aliens began […]

I’d intended to write about politics, the healthcare legislation or aliens (from another planet) today but then Andy Griffith died. These days I get most of my breaking news through Twitter. Uprisings, political scandals, supreme court rulings and celebrity deaths all come through Twitter first it seems. I was shocked to hear about Michael Jackson’s […]
