The God in the Mirror 0

Tony Norman considers the much-married Kentucky court clerk Kim Davis, her enablers, and their symps, dupes, and fellow travelers. A nugget:

Once again, God was dragged kicking and screaming into the most common of debased religious fantasies — the one that imagines that God is just teeny enough to be reduced to the sum total of one’s own picayune bigotries.

The Feared Frisbee Lobby 0

The International Olympic Committee has become a parody of itself. Bob Molinaro, sportswriter extraordinaire:

Ultimate Frisbee, if you can believe it, was recently recognized by the International Olympic Committee as a sport, and thus a candidate for inclusion in the Summer Olympics, perhaps by 2024. Well, we once laughed at synchronized swimming, too. Still do, come to think of it.

The concept of “ultimate Frisbee” violates the spirit of Frisbee.

What’s next: Ultimate Simon Says*?

______________

*Simon says, “Jump off that bridge.”

Todd Steven Burroughs:

We need to ask and answer the following questions: What makes white people the way they are? Why do they respond to every black freedom call with physical and psychic violence, smear tactics and diversionary moves . . . ?

This website does not track you.

It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.

Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).

I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.
