I’ve Got The Flu…I’m Leaching Off The Rest of You Instead Of Providing Original Content

Yeah…I’ve got it and its nasty. I haven’t been around everyone’s favorite militant progressive at all lately but his symptoms sound like what I’ve got. It stinks.

Since I’m tired and miserable I’m only going to link to other people today and call that fulfilling my blogging responsibilities:

Bob Rules. Sign the petition.

Paramaphil thinks Sen. Margaret Dayton is worse than Buttars when it comes to stupid racist statements. He makes a great argument. Who would have thought someone would say something even more stupid than the “black baby” comment.

For The People catches Sen. Buttars in a lie.

David at Pursuit of Liberty links to an excellent description of why the free traders are right and Lou Dobbs is an idiot.

Frank Staheli thinks American militarism is expanding in a very real and scary way. As usual he’s right.

RudiZink points out that the legislature is owned lock stock and barrel by real estate developers who would sell their own mothers for a little more easy month. We should spend a little less time focusing on fools like Sen. Buttars and more focusing on the blatant corruption on display daily from the legislature. Thank you WCF.

Utah may have its problems…but our local blogosphere rocks.

I won’t be posting much here over the next few days. 

I’ll be doing my small part to help out at Utah Amicus while Rob Miller is gone.  He’s spending time away from blogging fulfilling his responsibilities as Utah Democratic Party Vice Chair.  I’ll try to provide links on this site to all the posts I do there.

Ray put out another Album. I like it even better than his last.

I only heard him sing once before I lost touch with him…but that wasn’t really a song that would have fit too well on one of his albums.

Here’s a great interview he did with NPR that includes a few songs from his latest CD.

It should be noted that I knew the boy Ray Lamontagne…I do not know Ray Lamontagne now. Please do not contact me with questions about him. I will not share any information other than what I have already foolishly posted. Thanks.



AndersenFam.net…Another Reason Blogs Are Cool

Check out the very cool website Cody has put together for his family. There is a blog where they can all communicate with each other and their friends (and the whole world if they want). Laurie and Carol are in New Zealand right now and have posted some very cool pictures from their summer there.

Awesome.

Techie note: I’m considering switching blog software to Wordpress which is what Cody used.

UPDATE: This is my favorite part of the Andersen family website…it is a journal being kept of the New Zealand trip. Good daily reading.

It’s Been So Long…So Very Long…

Corryn loves to listen to cds when we drive anywhere in the van. One cd she loves is a Disney CD that has songs from many different Disney movies. She always makes me play one of the songs over and over again. The song is “Lets Get Together” from The Parent Trap.

She always asks what movie the song is from and we always tell her…then she insists that we have to go buy The Parent Trap. We finally rented it for her and she liked it. I just laughed at it.

Char or Bryan…I lost your address. Please send it to me and I’ll get you your Lollygag.

Aspiring parents should consider Kelly Harward’s warnings…and remember his techniques. Those pictures will be of considerable worth to this forward thinking parent in 14-15 years…

Dan has been published by one of my favorite Internet content publishers, Tech Central Station. They have a rally dumb name but the articles are always very well written and reasoned. Dan’s piece is no exception.

Char posted this comment on my most recent marriage post:

Do you remember where you were August 30, 1996? I do. You were celebrating the “nuptials” of Ken Moore and Richard Walsh. I believe Tarbox was your date…

Good times.

Especially the cross dresser turned maid of honor and the lesbians teaching line dancing at the reception.

Here’s my response:

Char,

I have no idea what you are talking about. I don’t remember anything about August 30th 1996. I went to check my journal and found that the page for that date has been torn out (and probably burned).

Your description of where I was may explain an image that crops up in my nightmares from time to time. The image is of a very ugly, large, hairy backed man wearing a pink dress that leaves his shoulders and back visible. I wake up screaming…

You haven’t heard anything from Ken have you? Do you ever wonder what happened to him and his…uh…husband?

I posted this in a new post because I want to be able to forward this to Tarbox to see if he has the same problem with RMS. (Repressed Memory Syndrome…also known as CRS disease)



New Linked Blog

Michael Damron has joined the Blogosphere!!! Good for him. His blog has been added to the links on the right hand side of this screen.

If anyone else would like their own blog hosted on our web server that can be arranged…for a price…

It is a really cool way to keep track of your thoughts. I almost decided to call my blog “Jeremy’s Penseive

Now…I’m going to bed. It is too late.

Dan finally opened up his own blog. It is excellent. He posts more links about the Jedi I mentioned a few weeks ago…comments on Hillarymania…and talks baseball. You can’t get much better than that. Take a look at it!

Speaking of new blogs, here is an interesting post at Right Wing News.com (that’s just the name of the blog…the post is good for you lefties out there too) listing 11 Tips for new bloggers. Dan probably doesn’t need this (his blog is already better than mine) but anyone else out there reading might want to use these tips for their blogs! (I love my blog and encourage everyone to start one of their own. It is so easy there is no reason not to do it today.)
