America’s Cable Guys’ Strange Power Trip I was getting out of my car in my apartment complex parking lot and I saw a cable van. I don’t mean a van made of cables, though that would be cooler and, this being Athens, with our art-cars, not entirely outside of the realm of possibility. I don’t … Read more
God does not have a gender. HE’S not a dude. SHE’S not a chick. THEY’RE not a transgender person of indiscriminate genital-orientation. Period. We anthropomorphize everything. Cartoon turtles on TV ads lecturing their co-workers about the value of certain auto insurance policies. We describe interlocking building materials as having “the male part” and “the female … Read more
The Intellectual Climate on the Dangers of the Vaccine Running rampant in public belief is that the Covid vaccines are perfectly safe, and of course, anyone refusing them is an idiot or an unscientific dolt, unpatriotic, selfish and not caring for their fellow man. These dolts insanely insist on their “rights” even if it harms … Read more
Like the rest of the country over the age of thirty (except for the uber-right wingers), I listen to a lot of NPR. Not on purpose. It’s not like I mean to. It’s just a fall-back radio plan, a default. When there’s no particular music I want to hear, when I can’t find someone on … Read more

Update: It’s been 4 years since my intellectual group began noticing something wrong with the vaccine. This presentation perfectly captures the science behind why this vaccine can be so dangerous: why the deadly and/or disabling effects may take a year to show, why the sudden death, the neurological impairment, heart issues even in the young, … Read more
I hate it when the news reports on something offensive that some famous guy said…and then doesn’t mention the offensive something. Don’t get me wrong, I love it as much as the next guy when, in an unscripted moment of rare celebrity honesty, Justin Bieber is caught on tape professing his hatred for Asian midgets, … Read more
or (alternative title) We’re All Aging, We’re Just Doing It Wrong Despite what The Disney Channel, “The National Enquirer” and your mother told you, aging isn’t everything. Reporters seem intent on mentioning their subjects’ ages, even when the article has nothing to do with age. We have these pre-set notions about what we’re supposed to … Read more
(For a more precise authorship description, substitute the following:by Bowen Craig, then Dr. Alice Rose, then back to Bowen) Should we look for morality in our leaders? It’s a fair question. Moral relativism is pretty common now. “It’s not personal, it’s just business,” is our favorite catch-phrase to justify stealing what little the poor have … Read more
