I went to see the midwives on Friday and it went well. But she did bring up a concern. She’s a little worried about my weight. Not that I’ve gained too much, but that I’ve not gained enough.

For them, Gee, Golly, Gosh, Darn and fudge are strong enough curse words and they fucking well say them too.
I am not advocating you teach your aspiring infant to say motherfucker, much less... Read Full Story

I was going through my Woopra stats not so long back when i noticed something very exciting and very unexpected. My political blog, Brad’s Tiny World, was receiving a lot of traffic from CNN and within a few days of watching that incoming traffic I started noticing them coming from The Wall Street Journal. When tracking down this traffic I found it had come in the form of a sweet little plugin I had accidentally left on when I was testing what did and didn’t work with the new theme tools...

She applied for parole because of these conditions and was flatly denied. This was as much a political decision as anything,simply because of how famous her crimes were.

The point of prison is not to... Read Full Story
