31 Blogs of Christmas Day 8 I swear I wasn’t going to go political in December. I was going to try and make all these blogs about Christmas, Christmas carols, Christmas movies, Christmas shopping, etc. But then the anniversary of the attack on Pear Harbor happened after Nelson Mandela died. In case you weren’t aware, […]
Blog2ober Day 29 A comic friend of mine posted a link to an Anti-Obama group on Facebook. It was chalk full of great images like the one above. But the insane images were only the tip of the crazy iceberg. It’s the comments that really let you know the kind of people you’re dealing with… […]
Blog2ober Day 25 Looking in my Facebook feed today, I saw that someone posted that a judge ruled that the 9/11 museum can include World Trade Center cross. Using my new critical brain from yesterday, I thought to myself, “NO one REALLY could have opposed that, could they? Let me do some googling.” Sure enough, […]
Blog2ober Day 24 I posted this picture on Facebook a few hours ago… It’s from a Facebok page called “Shares From Your Aunt” that posts saterical images like that that LOOK like something a “crazy aunt” would share on Facebook. I didn’t know that was where it was from I just saw the image and […]
Blog2ober Day 21 After the events of today, I’ve heard a lot of people say that all this school violence is because parents “aren’t doing their jobs.” I’m not saying there’s no truth in that statement, but how does that solve anything? We can’t even agree that people should get health care or that the […]
Blog2ober Day 18 I’m not usually one to participate in “follow Friday” on Twitter. But I’m using my blog today as an endorsement to follow @BarackObama on Twitter. I know, many of you reading this are not fans of the president. That’s not the point.I don’t recommend following him on Twitter for the content of […]
30 Days and 30 Blogs Day 30 I almost went the whole month without going on a political rant. But here it is, the last day of 30 Days and 30 Blogs 3, and the republicans have shut down the government. Sure the democrats could have just caved and defunded Obamacare, but “change the law […]
I’m happy to say that I’m going to my first gay wedding tomorrow. Well, technically I have to work during the ceremony, so I only get to go to the gay reception. Still I’m very happy to stand with my friends as they celebrate their love and their commitment to spending their lives together. Sadly, […]
Alright this is a blog I’ve been tinkering with on and off since December. It’s probably not gonna be that funny…just a warning. “Oh crap…Tim’s going to get ‘political’ again.” (Closes window) It started shortly after the Sandy Hook shooting when I saw a posting from one of my Facebook “friends.” It was a video […]
So today in New York, a judge struck down the law banning sugary drinks from being larger than 16 ounces. A friend of a friend had this to say about it on Facebook. It is our bodies. If we want to load it with sugar then so be it. They are just trying to find […]
