I was recently asked the question…

I was recently asked who I thought was worse – Sarah Palin or Representative Anthony Wiener. And I thought to myself, one of them is a man laboring under the misconception that all a woman needs to see is the size of his penis to be so wildly impressed that she will fall madly in love/lust with him. One of them is a man that thought taking pictures of his penis, because it is that special, and sending it around the Internet was a good idea because who wouldn’t be impressed with his manly staff. One of them, in other

It occurs to me

It occurs to me that women will never truly be able to claim equality until at least one of us has been thrown out of office for sending a picture of our genitals to someone. Then we will know we have truly arrived.

Palin the darling of the lame stream media

First Sarah Palin makes the term “lame stream media” her own, then she goes and proves they really are. And the lame stream media is right there helping her by acting like a bunch of buffoons. Like summer movies, the coverage being provided of Palin’s summer vacation is vacuous and forgettable – it is, as the Bard would say, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Sarah Palin has truly become a puppet master. She pulls the strings and the media reacts. She goes on some inane bus tour in which she stops every so often to give twenty or

Only an Alaskan would understand

At APTI’s summer music party last weekend, the clouds and wind were out in full force, enough to blow a tent over until it was tethered to a beer keg. But this is Alaska and we define good summer weather differently than most. As I served soda and water to our guests, people would comment what great weather we had for the party and how lucky we were. In Alaska speak that means it was above forty degrees, it was not raining and swarms of mosquitoes were not making life a living hell for all living things. I guess you

What it takes to clean the refrigerator

Have your refrigerator die overnight, leading to the need to empty it out and call a repairman to fix it. Suddenly you realize just how grungy it is without food in it. And you further realize that a stranger will be looking into it.

I cleaned that mother for an hour so the repairman would not think the less of me.

Some of Bird TLC’s baby ducks

Summer at Bird TLC means lots and lots and lots of orphaned baby birds to care for. These are from one of the first groups of babies that came in. They’ve just finished splashing happily in their water box and are now huddled together to dry off and take a nap.

Why I want Sarah Palin to run for president

Because then I could sit back, relax and not have to worry from now until her inevitable defeat about what to write for my weekly newspaper column. Lazy? Yes. Do I like being lazy? Absolutely. Do I fear my lazy desire could lead to America electing the most unqualified person ever to hold the office of president, even including Rutherford B. Hayes and George Bush Jr.? Nah. Most Americans did not get to voting age being that crazed. (My apologies to Rutherford B. Hayes and any of his descendents who might still be around.)

I apparently lied

I don’t know how to get the poster to show. Apparently I am a complete failure when manipulating my own website. Just another day in the life of a technophobe.

I don’t know how to make this work

Sorry the file isn’t showing that’s supposed to give the details of the big music event at the APTI campus tomorrow from 3 to 9. Go to KSKA.org and get all the info about the food, drink and fun we’ll be having there. I’m actually going to be serving hot dogs from 6 to 9 and am looking forward to listening to great Alaska musicians while I do. Hope to see you there.
