Vote For DaleI’ve decided to channel my anger at Dale being kicked off Top Chef for a higher good. I found this awesome interview with fabulous Dale on Yumsugar.He gives his fans a great suggestion, which is to vote for him as fan favorite on the Top Chef website. They allow 20 votes per week and the voting goes until May 27th…Nineteen, Twenty, DONE…
This was the first instance in which Onion and Oskar,the two adult males on the right, were able to get within striking rangeof the new kitten without her attempting to hiss them to death.From her original starved state, she has already filled out a bit. It's arelief, because when she first landed in our apartment, her hip bones stuck out.And this is the evidence of what is to come. One day the li

I have said since the beginning of this campaign that Barack Obama is not a moderate, even though he does play one on television. Now, via Captain Ed comes this story from the Politico that reveals that Barack Obama may have been… less than forthcoming about his personal role in reviewing the [...]
I have several favorite verses in the Bible, and most of them are reminders of how important I am to God. One of them is Isaiah 49:16. See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me. I think of how often my two teens come home with ink on their hands with some vital information inscribed, and I revel in the idea that I am so important to God that my name is on his hand so He will never forget me. Another of my favorite ideas of God's love shows up in several passages like Psalm 17:8 Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings. This is a verse God reminds me of often. Yesterday as I was driving to pick Mia up from school, I was running through all of my obligations and worries, when I saw a bald eagle soaring high in the sky, and t
I'm already going to hell so I just had to do this one. It was just screaming at me to make a picture of her pregnant since there were no REAL ones out there yet. Anyways, I was going to make her a pregnant trailer trash girl but I thought that may have been too mean. Jamie Lynn Spears is just 16, and although she is pretty stupid for getting herself pregnant, I'm not gonna sink THAT low. Plus, it's not all her fault. Her boyfriend or ex-boyfriend or whoever he is, Casey Aldridge, sperminated her so he's partly to blame, not to mention her mother. So, I just made this. Not too much harm in it...just what she would look like 7 months pregnant. I repeat, this IS NOT REAL!
I’m lonely tonight.
It is my father’s birthday, and today he would have been 58 years old. It’s snowing and very cold, and Mr. Chicken is working late, studying for his exam tomorrow. I tried to call both my mother and my sister, both too busy to talk to me. They are together tonight, giving one [...]
Northern Soul legend Donnie Elbert was born May 25, 1935 in New Orleans. His family relocated to Buffalo, New York's east side three years later, and there he learned to play guitar and piano--influenced most profoundly by the Drifters' Clyde McPhatter, Elbert co-founded a doo-wop group called the Vibraharps with friend Danny Cannon in 1955, serving as its guitarist, songwriter and arranger while...

Why me? How could I let this happen? If I could only go back and undo what I did. It is only natural to engage in this thought process when you've been charged with a criminal offence. Such sentiments may be echoing repeatedly in your mind. You may even feel that you cannot stop them. However, you must in order to help yourself.
Begin by recognizing that this thought process creates feelings of
Check out my hunka hunka burnin' love. Isn't he dreamy?Even though he sleeps next to me, I lay awake at night just contemplating how handsome is the studly creature next to me. Who can blame me?I mean, he is so wonderful, so good for me, a saint among saints, it's almost as if heavenly beams exude from him wherever he goes. How can I not revel in his wonderful hunkiness?We are just one dadgum stinkin' happy couple. I love him mostly because of pictures like these. He's the quintessential picture of masculinity.(Oh, and I think he likes me mostly for my teeth. Aren't they gorgeous? In a horsey kind of way I mean?)Nan
I have been running my website since January of last year. It has been almost one year since I started using my domain to blog. And while things have improved (namely, the crap I put out here and the people reading my crap), I am not quite where I thought I would be after this much time and effort. For this reason, I am calling on you, my 12 faithful readers (kinda like the apostles… spooky…). I need some help to boost traffic and readership, and maybe even get dugg!
The Situation
Here is basically where I stand. All of those interesting metrics and website tools tell me that I am doing a good job. I have a pagerank of 6 and a Technorati rank at 10,215. I feel like those are pretty good ranks. I have also used those tools that I have suggested for you, and they generally give me excellent feedback. My Alexa rank is not that great (180,588), but it has been improving:
My Evaluation
As I see it, all of my rankings are inflated, except for the Alexa one. The real problem
