Row 2 Seat 4 quotes President Obama during his Colorado Stump Stop for Health care as saying, “I just lost my grandmother last year. I know what its like to watch somebody you love who’s ageing (sic), deteriorate and have to struggle with that,” said Obama. “So the notion that … Continue reading →
Color the Sidewalk for Me by Brandilyn Collins is not a new publication (2002). It is new to me. I fell in love with her Kanner Lake series — which, I believe, spawned the aptly descriptive term “Seatbelt Suspense.” Color the Sidewalk for Me is the second in the Bradleyville … Continue reading →
It seems protests are patriotic when it’s against Bush policies, but when the shoe is on the other foot? Well, just sit down, shut up, and get out of the way. “Important Stuff” says it pretty well, so go check him out. He’s got it right about conservatives not doing … Continue reading →
