It is a very white Christmas here, and still lots of fluffy snow coming down. I’m tired because there were drunken Russians out yelling and playing in the snow right outside my window, at two or three in the morning, and because TLG wanted about twenty feedings during the night. Kind of in [...]
There has been so much spiritual warfare stuff going on here this fall, impeding the completion of my book, and other projects that we are trying to get going. One thing after another; interruptions, illnesses, and we just now found out that some witless minion smashed out a window of our car TO STEAL [...]
From Vox Day:
What I don’t understand is why the medical authorities seem so determined to see an epidemic of one sort or another take place.
Well, if I put my tin-foil hat on….
1. This administration is determined to not let a good crisis go to waste.

Thanks to MaxedOutMama for the link to this article:
House Democrats Contemplate Abolishing 401(k) Tax Breaks. Which means either taxing contributions, or interest and dividends. Also, there’s a little proposal mentioned about making retirement contributions into a government-administered account mandatory. Never mind if you want to focus on paying off [...]
I read a lot of natural childbirth-midwifery-attachment parenting blogs, because I see a lot of good in those philosophies. I forget sometimes, though, that most of the people that are into that stuff are far to the left politically. (I joke to myself that I’m so far to the right that I came [...]
Nowadays, I only listen to the radio on the rare occasions when I’m driving myself around. (We are a one-car family for now; when MFH drives, we listen to his iPod.) Usually I set it to the local Christian station. I tried listening to some country again yesterday, but it was all [...]
