I am reposting a related article I first wrote here, that later appeared on www.clubmom.com.
America In Decline?
During a recent airing, talk show host Dennis Prager spoke to a man who apologized to his son for “giving a worse America to you than my father gave to me.”
A worse America? This wasn’t a new concept [...]
My husband read my previous post on bicycle-commuting yesterday and said that one of his co-workers had just told him that he and his girlfriend decided to bike to the movie theatre instead of drive.
Then this morning Israel said, “You know, someone was just telling me that in Portland the government put a bunch of [...]
I am training my children to become bicycle-commuters.
I envy Europeans in cities where walking is a life-style. I would love for my town to adopt biking as a major mode of transportation, the way Amsterdam has done.
Let me name a few benefits off the top of my head. . . better health, cleaner air, [...]
I finally took some initiative and submitted an entry to the Carnival Of The Godless!
What finally motivated me to get it done? The great founder of COTG, Brent Rasmussen of Unscrewing the Inscrutible (Brent, what do you call yourself in relation to COTG? Probably not the founder?) commented on one of [...]
Why do they hate us? Why? WHY?!
I thought I’d start off with a bit of drama. Just to get your attention.

It’s evening, and I am not quite ready to post the piece I’ve been working on today. I still owe Ben a post on Science In Crisis. I just started organizing my sources. I am sorry I have yet to write it. Hopefully it will hit this week. Hifi and [...]
AgnosticMom reader, “Gregg100″ had a list of questions about how I will be handling certain situations. In this post I will state the question and provide my answer. I am sure there will be varying opinions on these matters. I expect some of you have stories to share. Go ahead and [...]
As I promised yesterday, here are my responses to some of the recent comments I haven’t been able to keep up with.
I received my first correction! After reading, America In Decline, Skysinger clarified for me that we do not have a cure for polio, just a vaccination. Well, that makes sense, doesn’t it? [...]
I was raised by talk radio. As a child, coming home at night from various events, there was a certain time in the evening when my parents changed the radio station from music to talk. It was always right when my eyes were growing heavy. I got very used to the lullabye [...]
