Most of us can probably recall our mother or father warning us that we shouldn’t judge a book by its cover.  Here’s something to underscore that.
Admittedly, I don’t watch this particular program. I don’t watch much television period. But, this clip was posted to Fark and I couldn’t help but take a look. What I [...]

My word but we Americans have turned into a disastrously impolite lot.
It’s not as if we aren’t living in a time when embracing one another and endowing each other with just a bit of kindness and thoughtfulness would be an excellent idea. We have an extraordinary opportunity – right now – to show the world [...]

Comedian George Carlin dead at age 71.
George Carlin was something of a hero to me for quite a long time. Probably since I was only 8 or 9 years of age. I adored his wit as well as his ability to point out the stupidest of human behaviors that nearly all of us share.
