I’m burned out today. I can’t play another game. I can’t read another book. I can’t break up another fight. I can ‘t drive to another class. I can’t wade through another family swim. I can’t give another time out. I can’t go through another negotiation around watching, “just one more show.”I can’t handle one more item on a “list.” I can’t handle one more bill that needs to be paid. I can’t handle the start and stop of five things at once. I can’t ask the kids to be gentle with the kitten. I don’t want to remind them one more time that the playroom is not one giant garbage can. I can’t endure one more set of wake ups before actually going to sleep. I’m tired and I need a nap. Do not disturb.

- Repealing “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” could be a mixed blessing October 13, 2009I’ve heard people privately express annoyance that the LGBT community is pushing Obama to follow through on his promise of eliminating “don’t ask don’t tell. I guess the frustration is that many people think the President has more important issues to confront like healthcare, the economy, and war. It is easy to get swayed into [...]4wrdthnkndad
- Michael Moore’s Movie Blames All the Usual Suspects except……….. Us October 12, 2009I saw Michael Moore’s new movie, “Capitalism,a Love Story on Saturday. It was easier to digest than some of his past political propoganda. He seemed more able to express his disdain with politicians and Wallstreet in a more balanced approach than he has in past movies. Specifically, he outed Democrats as well as Republicans. Moreover he [...]4wrdthnkndad

- Anderson Cooper’s Trying to Create Trouble October 8, 2009I like Anderson Cooper. However I didn’t like his coverage of violence in Chicago. He seemed to be on a mission to create the impression that Chicago is nothing but a violent city. As Eric Holder said, this is not Chicago’s problem, this is an American problem. When you combine poverty, low income, poor housing and, [...]4wrdthnkndad
