I’ll show you the life of a mind.
Well, here I am. I voted at lunch today – all for Democratic candidates with the exception of the congressional race, where Republican incumbent Spencer Bachus is running unopposed (I wrote-in Nick Saban). I have gone against party lines before – two years ago I voted for our Republican governor Bob Riley – but not [...]
It is that time again. Didn’t we just do this?
Next Thursday I will grudgingly celebrate my birthday… alone. That’s right. My wife will be out of town on a business trip. Not only do I have to ponder what it means to be striding ever closer to the death that awaits us all, I [...]
Public Radio:
WBHM (90.3 FM) began their Fall fundraising campaign this Wednesday. So far it seems to be less intrusive under the new station format – they do not seem to be as willing to interrupt the national news programs with the pledge drive info as they were when they played classical music all day.

He is forcing Obama to hit back, and the result is that they both [...]
I think a week-in-review post might be in order. Oftentimes I find myself with an overabundance of potential blog topics and no time to flesh out all of those ideas into respectable articles. So, as this is, indeed, a receptacle – here is this week’s mental purge.

This is what I have done all day. If I was actually a web page designer by profession, that might be respectable – but since I am an accountant I am a little ashamed. Eh. I’ll make up for it at tax season. I have mostly been wrestling with these header pictures. I still think they [...]
