I hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day! My gratitude goes out to all those of you who have sacrificed time with family members or friends who have been deployed in Iraq or other parts of the world. Most especially that goes to those whose loved ones are now gone.

I cannot wait to read this new book, which Panda’s Thumb brought to my attention:
INTELLIGENT THOUGHT: SCIENCE VERSUS THE INTELLIGENT DESIGN MOVEMENT is a compilation of articles by some of our favorite scientists.
In the Editor’s Note is a copy of an email he received which should be “a stark reminder of why this [...]
In my household we conduct what we call “5-Minute Room Rescues.” We got this concept from FlyLady.net, a web-site for over-achieving, have-too-many-interests, obsessive, perfectionistic, therefore-life-is-chaos people like me.
The concept of the 5-Minute Room Rescue works great for young children. Every morning before school, and at other times when I feel the need, my [...]

Have you been following the on-going discussion in my earlier post, A System For Morality? It’s good to know we have some very educated and thoughtful readers here.
We’ve gone into some more complicated specifics and I feel I the need to break my system down into its smallest parts. Please excuse [...]
We might be making some headway.
Have you heard of ClubMom.com? It’s a mainstream mother’s website, an affiliate of momcentral.com, which has a new spot on the Today Show called, Parent Central. ClubMom has three million subscribers.
Thanks to my editor, Duncan Crary of the Humanist News Network, ClubMom has asked me to [...]
Apparently the math problem I was using as a spam filter was also casting some of your comments into outer blogness. It sure helped eliminate the 20 plus email-ads I get daily. But it’s not worth the loss of your comments.
The math problem is gone! You are free again to [...]
It started out superb. In fact, for as long as Israel was with us, Mother’s Day was perfect. The kids gave me their homemade gifts (and a few recycled toys). I got to read Blake’s numerous descriptions of me in a school project and how I “love life and the religions” and [...]
I realized I needed to get this post up when I saw that Gregg 100 is already commenting on it. Hifi has also responded back to him, but they’re having to do it in the previous blog entry.
If you are not subscribed to the Humanist News Network, this week’s installment hit our [...]
