Thursday: Slow Blogging Continues Amid Family Commitments

From a 1970s Steve Martin act: > I'm into bread. I love money, I love everything about money, I love to eat it. Money. > They say you can't take it with you? I'm taking it with me. > I'm into bread.

The Wednesday Eudemon

TV, reality show, and a new form of slumming. It's a lot of fun, until the hooded gang members want to know whatcha doin' on their turf: Fox network is set to announce "Secret Millionaire," a new series from RDF USA in which wealthy benefactors

No Eudemon in Cleveland

Not on Youtube: Up to 15 people chased a man, then kicked and beat him to death on the street. Before police arrived, one attacker urinated on the victim's head [http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D90KAU580&show_article=1]. It happened in Cleveland, "within

Monday Moanin'

Mother's Day went well. I started it by breaking my boycott of McDonald's and bringing my wife a breakfast burrito early in the morning. We then went to church, after which I bought her seven roses (a right-to-life fundraiser). After church, we gave Marie her presents,

Shaw on Clericalism

I predicted that blogging would be light, and so it is. I took the older kids to Iron Man last night, and it was pretty long. I didn't care for it, incidentally. It moved too slow. I'd give it a 5 out of 10. While watching

Tuesday Trifle

The good news: Son Jack (11) pitched three innings last night, striking out six and giving up only one run (thanks to some great fielding from his team). He also hit two doubles and a triple. The bad news: I stayed late to clean the field (had to stay a
