The ACLU, and their new campaign Let People Vote, has an excellent infographic: http://www.aclu.org/let-people-vote/infographic/ that does a lot to show exactly why there has been a tide of voter ID legislation supported by the GOP and TP. Funny how it was by registering interested voters the Obama campaign did well and took the White House and … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Let People Vote

From the Kitchen – Seafood Chowder
Even though it's been lovely outside, warm comforting foods are always good to have. This is for my husband's seafood chowder. I love various chowders but this tops them all and I've had chowder a lot of places, even up in the New England states. Last time we made it, the two of us ate … Continue reading From the Kitchen – Seafood Chowder
From the Bar – Shine
Thanks to a commenter, Doug Fo, I will have to say that Philadelphia Distilling's Shine is pretty damn fine with tart lemonade as he suggested. It makes what I would call a rather American version of a margarita. Definitely something to keep on hand during the summer.
From the Kitchen – Gobs
Whoopie Pies do not equal gobs. They might look like the same thing, cake on the outside, some filling in the inside, but consider this similarity rather like the mimicry of the Monarch and Viceroy butterflies. In my opinion, the whoopie pie is the Monarch, impressive looking, but tasting gawdawful sweet, and the gob the … Continue reading From the Kitchen – Gobs
What the Boss Likes – Cats part 3
Finally got a photo of the last of our cats, Mystra. She is a sweetheart and soft like a bunny. But she has no desire to be a lap cat at all.
Not so polite dinner conversation – True Reason
I've been engaging with Tom Gilson, someone with the True Reason group. I had stated that I had not heard or seen this group at the Reason Rally. I was suprised I couldn't find them despite looking around because they claimed the following: "We’ll be equipped there with: Gifts of kindness to give away–free bottled … Continue reading Not so polite dinner conversation – True Reason
What the Boss likes – Reason Rally review
So, the Reason Rally has come and gone. And it was wet, really wet. But not one peal of thunder from the sky, no petulant Bronze Age gods showing up to “smite” the freethinkers. It was just another spring day inWashingtonDC. I know it must be so hard for some theists to not say that … Continue reading What the Boss likes – Reason Rally review
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Why I’m going to the Reason Rally
The Reason Rally is tomorrow. Yep, the weather may well suck, but it doesn’t matter (and heck the farmers need the rain. Since I need them who am I to bitch?). I’m relatively close by, and people need to see that atheists, agnostics, free thinkers, etc, are willing to stand up to be counted. I’m … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Why I’m going to the Reason Rally
What the Boss Likes – Greta Christina’s new book
Greta Christina, a blogger who I follow, has written a new book "Why Are You Atheists So Angry? 99 Things That Piss Off the Godless". I'm also proud to be an angry atheist. Tthere are plenty of reasons for atheists to be angry with the way things are, how religion is used to control women, how … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – Greta Christina’s new book
