What bitter, yet delicious irony.   Only a week after Hick-He-Be dissed Obama in comparison to Sarah451, on the grounds that only Governors have the executive experience necessary to be president (self-serving, anyone?) a violent felon who had been granted clemency by Hick-He-Be is apparently the murderer of four police officers.

A friend sent this to my inbox this morning and I thought I would like to share it with you. I think that we all need to laugh a little more, it’s good for us I hear. It’s hard to read I know but when I tried the larger version, [...]

Seeing as winter is coming on (even in Los Angeles, it’s all relative) I have a hankering for my favorite soups. Cipollata is high on my list.   It is an Italian answer to French Onion Soup. From “Easy Italian Cookery”, Grange Books, 1986. 3tbs olive oil 1/4lbs to 1/2 lbs [...]

Obama disappoints me again with this Shrub-like decision. Check out link for details: http://www.democracynow.org/2009/11/25/ahead_of_key_global_conference_us This and sending 34,000 more troops to Afghanistan really have me steamed. He won’t get my vote again in 2012. I will either vote third party or stay home.

I hope everyone enjoyed their fun and food food food yesterday! Since Black Friday is traditionally a slow news day, I thought I’d post a few stories that might have been missed this week. These are some of my favorite items that didn’t get the royal treatment by our mainstream [...]

It is a tradition with our family that at Thanksgiving Dinner, we go around the table and each of us says what we’re thankful for. It occurred to me that many other people may do the same, especially those who should get stuffed along with their turkeys. So, The Planet’s [...]

Reprinted from “DocStrangelove’s” message on the HadEnoughington Post… “For what it’s worth, I just heard from my friend on the west coast known as “MrCreosot­­e” and it seems that he is NOT currently in limbo as originally thought. He told me that his profile is now gone and it appears [...]

Thanksgiving can be a day of joyful family reunion or, a dreaded day of obligation that must be attended out of guilt. Does Thanksgiving for you mean a warm home with the mouth-watering scents of spices from pumpkin pie, the herbs from stuffing and sweet Italian sausage emanating the air, [...]

President Obama is going to announce his plans for Afghanistan after Thanksgiving. It may be ironic that by then we will be done giving thanks. Word right now is that the military anticipates over 30,000 more soldiers being sent there. Pres. Obama will present his decision and reasoning to the [...]

I don’t know if this will help, because there is a good set of directions already posted, but it’s complicated, so maybe a second set of instructions wouldn’t hurt. First, have the photo you want to use on your hard drive. Be sure you have permission to use it (public [...]

Last weekend, 60 Minutes had a story about the high cost of dying in a hospital. One doctor said that 30% of procedures and tests performed during a patient’s last couple of months were unnecessary. They are paid for with little question by MediCare and the doctors ordering them are [...]

Why do we blog? Nothing very political in this post. I’ve given a lot of thought the last few weeks about why I blog, about why many of us blog, about what we are looking for, what we’re hoping to accomplish. Here’s how I personally got started in it. I [...]

I was struck by a clip of Joe Lieberman during his most recent campaign for the senate. I heard the clip on Randi Rhodes and now it has been posted by the Daily Kos. Thanks to both of these tireless fact-trackers for digging this out of the archives and reminding [...]
