The movie clips consisted of 8 short films split into two series that first aired [...]
It's hard to believe that Neil isn't in "The Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame". He's had numerous hits like "Calendar Girl", "Little Devil" and "Breaking Up Is Hard To Do" which was #1 in both the 60s and 70s. Other artists have had hits from his songs which include "Stupid Cupid" and "Love Will Keep Us Together".You can s

Elizabeth looks beautiful but something is unnatural about her face. It looks a bit pulled even though she isn’t old enough to warrant any kind of [...]

I think this video went viral before we even used the word like that, but when I came across it again this morning, it brought one thought to mind: I think I've found my people. Of course, they're all older now and probably properly medicated, but I can dream.The Torrance Community Dance Group performs to Fatboy Slim's "Praise You":
This is a repost of something I wrote back when I started to focus my writing more on my specialty area of coalitions, interest groups, and corruption. Since I didn't have the readership then that this blog has now, and because it is directly relevant to a lot of what I've been writing about in terms of the shifting coalitions of the Left and Right (and also to a post I'm hoping to make in the nex
Unfortunately I didn't had to much time to write about my beloved old Audi 80. But this doesn't mean I don't have this car... it is still working, getting older and older day by day and from time to time things get broken... but this can happen with a brand new Audi too... so I am not even nervous when once in a while something stops working on this car.
A few weeks ago we needed to change all

Ouimet of The Teamakers has hung up the blogging keyboard for now.
Last time he quit, I provided a guest blog post that coincidentally prompted the last year or so of posting from him/her/it. I was once told by another blogger frequently seen commenting there that He/She/It loves my blog. Have a good one Ouimet.

GET IT, MINNE-SNOW-TA??!? HAHAHA, does it even snow in Minnesota? It’s like me making an edit and calling it “I.ALLWAYS.HAVE.ON.CLEAN.UNDERWEAR” because I usually don’t, but I’d call the edit that because it’s contradictory, and, well - you get it right - it’s ironic - because I don’t often have the clean underwears on, just like [...]

This is the last day of Great Grains Week, so I thought I’d highlight a grain I love, although it’s pearl barley I’ve used more that the whole grain.

Barley is one of the oldest cultivated grains. Egyptians buried mummies with necklaces of barley, and centuries later Edward I of England standardized the inch as equal to “three barley seeds.” It is a highly-adaptable crop, growing north of the Arctic circle and as far south as Ethiopia.
Barley has a particularly tough hull, which is difficult to remove without losing some of the bran. Hulled barley, available at health food stores, retains more of the whole-grain nutrients but is very slow-cooking. New varieties of hull-less barley are starting to become available. Lightly pearled barley is not technicall
I just came across an old game that I used to play ages ago. It was a lot of fun. However, with everything that was going on in my life, I didn't have time to play games. So I had stopped playing it and forgot all about it. The game is called Sleuth. Its a free online game. Its a basic murder mystery game. You create a detective that you get to play through all of your cases. While creating your detective, you get to choose your detective's background. The background is what you were before you became a detective. The game is set in the detective noir era. It is all text based with a few pictures added for flavor. The game itself is free, however you can get a subscription to it. I had one on my previous character. I can't remember the password for that one though. So I had to create a whole new character. If you play for free, you get to play 4 cases per day and only stay in New York
I'm going to revisit one of my previous posts that I composed back in December 2006. I was inspired to do this when I read Joe's post entitled Not Saying This Is The Right Thing, (But I Can Understand)

I got this in an email today. It made me laugh and I can't help but nod my head in agreement...
Three things to think about:
1. Cows
2. The Constitution
3. The Ten Commandments
COWS: Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that our government can track a single cow born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she sleeps in the state of Washington? And, they tracked her calves right to their stalls. But they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around our country.
THE CONSTITUTION: They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq . Why don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it has worked for over 200 years, and we're not using it anymore.
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS: The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments posted in a courthouse is this: You cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery", and "Thou Shall Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers
The HTML glitches that forced me to proofread and republish some of my old posts today were a mixed blessing. They made me proud of my work way back in October 2005. Philosophers can be no more objective about their own arguments than parents about their children, but my writings seem to have aged well over their first year.
New York Times WASHINGTON, June 18 — Scientists from the Environmental Protection Agency say there is "sufficient evidence" to conclude that the country's most widely used pesticide, atrazine, causes sexual abnormality in frogs. They are recommending that the agency conduct more research to understand atrazine's mechanisms and its broader impact on frog populations. Popular Pesticide Faulted for Frogs' Sexual Abnormalities
I had the feeling this morning that I should reprint this article about choosing happiness. With all the turmoil in the world, it's important to remember that we can choose to create our own happiness. We do not need to be immersed in mass consciousness. Think about what you choose... Choosing HappinessDid you know that it�s up to you?It�s actually your choice.You can choose to be happy instead of waiting around for it to suddenly appear out of nowhere one day and land in your lap. Happiness is called upon and cultivated.Now keep in mind, this is my personal perspective of happiness. You might have a different view. Everyone has a unique view point, especially where emotion is concerned. But, nonetheless, I like my outlook on happiness. It helps me to see that I am the creator of my own thoughts and state of mind. It is my choice what feeling I choose to have on any given day. This does not mean I don�t go with the flow of feelings, but that I can choose at any given moment to c
