Ted Talk
http://www.brainspank.org/2015/03/ted-talk
Laquo; Citizen Fore. March 25th, 2015. Rafael Edward Cruz is running for president. By all accounts Ted Cruz is bright and formidable. He’s a powerful speaker. His academic accomplishments are impressive. His career trajectory just prior to politics is downright imposing. There’s a certain charisma in a Bob Dole meets Pee Wee Herman kind of way. He’s also a notorious tea party prick. It makes no sense that an obviously intelligent man has chosen to champion the stupidest. He has no chance. It’s not some ...

Yooper Has Left Crackerland: February 2015
http://mannikko.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Yooper Has Left Crackerland. Friday, February 27, 2015. Still Haven't Found It. We arrived at the campground on Wednesday. As promised our site had been plowed. It was a fairly nice day when we arrived, temp about 40°. Tried flushing out the water system, but couldn't get all the RV anti-freeze out. Didn't hook up the hose for water as the forecast was for cold and snow. Yesterday started off about 26° and fell during the day. This morning it was 6°. Links to this post.

Yooper Has Left Crackerland: Religion = People Wanting To Believe In Magic
http://mannikko.blogspot.com/2015/06/religion-people-wanting-to-believe-in.html
Yooper Has Left Crackerland. Thursday, June 11, 2015. Religion = People Wanting To Believe In Magic. A few days ago there was a thing on facebook about a father corresponding with his kid's teacher about an Easter program that really wasn't really an easter program. In this exchange the father referred jebus as "the allegedly magical jew". Which got me to thinking (and yes it did hurt! About how religion is basically about people wanting to believe in magic, miracles, afterlife, etc. Liberals got women t...

All The Good Names Were Taken: Why are some jobs more important to save than others?
http://mannikkomaki.blogspot.com/2015/08/why-are-some-jobs-more-important-to.html
All The Good Names Were Taken. Random thoughts about roadside art, National Parks, historic preservation, philosophy of technology, and whatever else happens to cross my mind. Monday, August 10, 2015. Why are some jobs more important to save than others? Because they preferred collecting a paycheck for repeating propaganda and lies more than they preferred being honest and retaining a soul. Or big chunks of Florida uninhabitable? Steve Schmidt, on the other hand, is a little more intriguing. He retai...

Mauigirl's Meanderings: The Snowpocalypse Continues, and What I've Been Up to for 8 Months
http://mauigirlsmeanderings.blogspot.com/2014/03/the-snowpocalypse-continues-and-what.html
A 60-something Baby Boomer's views on politics, pets and life. Saturday, March 01, 2014. The Snowpocalypse Continues, and What I've Been Up to for 8 Months. Well, here is my first post of what I hope will be a month of daily postings. I decided that is the only way to get back into the habit of blogging and catching up with all my blogger friends and their posts as well. The configuration of the bathroom was horrendous as well - it was claustrophobic and dated to the 1940s or 50s, we believe. Now, the ki...

Wormwood's Doxy: April 2012
http://wormwoodsdoxy.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
It is impossible to fall from grace; we only fall into it."- -LJ. Tuesday, April 10, 2012. Going Home to Memphis. Doxy's Note: This was the eulogy I delivered at my grandmother's funeral today. It does not come close to doing her justice. Ammom in the 1940s. It was her stock threat when she was mad at me: “I’ll just go home to Memphis! I don’t need anyone to stay here with me! All those people do is SIT! Which, of course, is what we were paying them to do. And then she pulled the usual line: “If yo...

Wormwood's Doxy: Love remains the same....
http://wormwoodsdoxy.blogspot.com/2012/05/love-remains-same.html
It is impossible to fall from grace; we only fall into it."- -LJ. Tuesday, May 29, 2012. Love remains the same. What follows is the eulogy that the Empress (my 11-year-old daughter) gave for my grandmother- the Empress' self-described "best friend" and confidante for her entire life. My daughter is very shy and does not like being the center of attention- so I was shocked when she stood up and spoke. It was an act of courage on her part- born of great love and pain. I believe that love is the most powerf...
