But I wish it came with a slo-mo option. How do you cram ten minutes’ worth of information into seven minutes and change? Watch and you’ll find out. You’ll also come away with an important fact about healthcare costs in the U.S. You know those AT&T commercials that have the tagline, “It’s not complicated”? Well, this issue is complicated. The …
Pet Therapy
Yes, we’re a day late posting Pet Therapy. Cats & Dogs is normally a Saturday event. Perhaps your attorney can contact our attorney. Meanwhile, let us move on with a presentation of several seasonal infographics. We do not endorse holiday gift-giving. What’s the point? Does the Salad Shooter you gave your Aunt Beatrix really honor The Baby Jesus? Or course …
Today’s important post
From a productivity standpoint, this could not describe the week more perfectly. However, on the plus side, the updated 2014 publication schedule and deadlines and the 2014 advertising rates for the Medical Examiner are now posted for worldwide viewing. Woo. Hoo.
Thursday: Music Video Day
If this doesn’t prove once and for all that Christmas honors the baby Jesus, nothing does. Note: for legal reasons, the rapper you have just witnessed now goes by the name Froggy Fresh. Now go buy a donut.
How I accidentally got married on December 25
The date was sometime in late November, 1976. My girlfriend, Patty, and I went for a walk, and during that walk – in a beautiful Southern California cemetery, of all places – I popped the question. She said yes. We walked on, discussing a date for this momentous event. I made a suggestion: let’s get married this year. “That doesn’t …
It’s the PSA of the Week!
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, every Tuesday, rain or shine, we post a brief message in this very spot that’s designed to improve the lives of everyone who sees it in ways large or small. Some people call them PSAs, short for Public Service Announcements. Today’s message is not so brief: 1,000 words. If you get their message, …
I HATE MONDAY
Know what I really hate? People who victimize children. This happens far more than it should – because once would be too often – and often occurs when couples are divorcing or separating. The children become innocent pawns in the power struggle between two warring parties. It can get ugly. How ugly? We’re just a few days shy of the …
Church of the Infinite Chasm
…is now in session! A few regular readers have commented that, if this is a weekly post devoted to establishing arguments in favor of creation (as opposed to evolution) – which it is, indeed – then the scarcity of scriptural references here is puzzling. Point taken. My rebuttal: the primary audience for these sermonettes would most likely be people who …
Pet Therapy
It’s the weekend, time to take a break and let our 4-legged companions work their magic and soothe and relax us. We begin with that rarest of all creatures, the non-swimming dog. …followed by cats stealing dog beds. Caught on tape!
Hear that barking?
No, Timmy has not fallen in the well, silly. It’s Lassie bringing in today’s paper! Just wipe off that doggie spit and read the shocking stats about education and its lifelong impact on health. You want more shocking? Read the latest update on the silky-smooth rollout of Obamacare. You want more shocking than that? Read the headline on page 6 …
