Why I Only Use Email

At least when your email is contaminated, it’s only your computer that gets sick. Frankly, if you have something like this in mind for me, just email me a picture of poo. I promise that I’ll get the message.

<!– google_ad_section_start(weight=ignore) –>Wrapping Up the Homeschool Debate<!– google_ad_section_end –>

See here.
Those for: still for
Those against: still against

I got the feeling that we were seeing a non-representative sample of homeschooling parents, and I strongly suspect that the evolution element plays a much bigger role than was evident in that discussion thread. The aversion to debating that topic was […]

Posts I Never Wrote

I hate dog people.
I pity cat people.
I envy young people.
I love beautiful people.

Addendum: If […]

Freebies

I had no idea how much you could get for free on the internet. Software, gizmos, gadgets, even professional quality photographs, like this happy couple here.

I got 250 pictures free with the professional quality web development software that I downloaded, also for free (along with a 244 page instruction manual for $10,000 (I kid […]

Burning Question of the Day

HD-DVD or Blu-Ray?

I’m (almost) speechless. Does this woman really believe that she’s educating her children?
Addendum: Behold the power of Nan…

2nd Addendum: While you’re here, be sure to visit our gift shop (that’s all those lovely adverts down the right-hand column).
