A few nights ago I dreamed I was running for President 20 years in the future.  Running against me was John McCain, who was still alive and still trying to get elected.

Last night I dreamt I traveled back in time to assassinate the inventor of political correctness.

That's what I get for reading "An Inconvenient Book" right before bed, I guess.

Gordon B Hinckley was a prophet of God.

He was a great man who accomplished much in his long and full life and has attained his Celestial glory.

He was the epitomy of everything the Church stands for and the world is a lesser place without him.

He was a great example and inspiration to me personally.  I loved that man ( Read more... )

I found out about this video from Glenn Beck on his radio program today.  It's all the Presidential candidates talking about "change" set to the music of David Bowie.  It's so great!

Have you ever wondered what the 2008 Presidential candidates would be like if they were all vegetables and all pursued an anti-meat eating agenda?  Of course you have!  Fortunately we have this insightful PETA "Road to the Greenhouse" video to illustrate just what it would be like ( Read more... )

Christmas was awesome!  I didn't get a single practical gift!  At the end of the day I had a stack of books, DVDs, manga and comics, and action figures.  How great is that?  Who says that you can't be an adult and get awesome gifts too?  It helps that the pets know me so well.  They were especially generous this year ( Read more... )

A little late, but here's a link to my wife's lj and her post with a scan of us in our Halloween costumes.  While we were out and about trick-or-treating, one guy, a professional photographer, was taking pictures of all the kids in addition to giving them candy.  He took our ( Read more... )

On the surface, this is a silly story about a bunch of guys pissed off at their neighbor for using a bunch of water in the middle of a severe drought.  I don't really care about that - in fact, if it were me, I would take this convenient excuse to let my lawn die and never mow it again.  But what I find ( Read more... )
