Jerks on a power trip
Now that Megan is in grad school, she has to have a parking sticker to be on campus. Since there are actually two stickers that she needs, and both are ugly, we put them on the inside of her rear win

Sour grapes, and proud of it
As any self-respecting Cubs fan will tell you, it was nice to see the St. Louis (AKA Milwaukee without the lake breeze) Cardinals lose the World Series last year to a team that hadn’t won it in over 8

Where, oh where, have all the rockers gone?
Music, like fashion, comes full circle every few decades or so but I am really hoping for the revitalization of rock music like I knew it growing up. I am fed up with the MTV Video Music Awards (whic

Monday's thoughts
It could have been the beer in me at the time, but something on the local news on Saturday night made me say out loud to the TV “What the fuck?!?!” The meteorologist had a graphic of the next day’s w

Delta Delta Delta, Can I not help you, not help you, not help you?
It’s nice to see that over half the nation’s aircraft are operating under bankruptcy protection. While there are legitimate reasons for these companies filing Chapter 11, a lot of blame can be pointe

New storm names
In the interest of tongue-in-cheek equality, a rotation of ethnic names for hurricanes and tropical storms is well overdue. Not only are we running out of Anglo names to use, I think that our Hispani

The coolest hockey name EVER
The Red Wings have a guy in training camp named Robin Big Snake. Imagine the amount of jerseys that would sell with his name if he ever made the NHL! I think these would even be more popular than the
