Who is Michael Taylor?

This is something of which I had no knowledge. I'm headed to my favorite store (Costco), and when I return I'll be doing lots of research and more linky-love. In the meantime, read it and give me your take on what's going on.

And about the newly acquired French Press? Get one!!!


You're Appointing Who? Please Obama, Say It's Not So!

The person who may be responsible for more food-related illness and death than anyone in history has just been made the US food safety czar. This is no joke. read the rest

Gates will sue - promise!

Coming to a neighborhood near you: Professor "I'm just outraged" Gates will be suing - and soon. Mark my words....

I am so tired of whining Negroes. When did Negroes become black people anyway? I'd rather be a Negro.

And African-American? No they're not. They're Americans unless they were born in Africa. Charlize Theron is an African-American and I suspect Obama is too.

Meantime: Meet my new French press....

French press: Say hi to all my friends....

As soon as I recover a bit from my hard labor outside and scrape off the dirt, I'll be headed to the store to get some properly ground coffee to test drive my French press.

Snagged it at T.J. Max for $12.99. Closest price online was a sale price of $22.95 (plus shipping). Regular price $33.95

My buddy Mark in Spokane says they make really yummy coffee. Mark also has some really yummy posts up and running so pop on over and say hi!

Starting tomorrow (hopefully) I'll be doing a linky-love posting every Friday. There are so many wonderful writers out in cyber-space (like Stacy McCain who knows where to put commas) and his co-blogger Smitty (I have a crush on Smitty), who is having a serious nervous break down due to the rampant racism in Cambridge.

Voting has started at The Crescat for the Ugliest Church Art.

Dear Lord above, there are some appalling examples of everything that can go wrong with "art"
