Canoeing Ain't For Babies

Junie got roughed up canoeing at camp. True sad fact: my nine year old canoes, but I've never once been in one.

Too Harsh man, too harsh

After screwing up the order in front of me, the cashier didn't know how to subtotal my groceries, tried to void the whole thing, then failed two more times until I swore and told her how to successfully do the job she's paid to do. F'ing imbeciles are the new America.

Huh Bernie?

Wait. Bernie Sanders wife is being investigated for bank fraud . . .and he goes on CNN and blames the President? It's not her first shady deal Bernie. Get over yourself.

The India Trip

Devastating news. The India trip YaYa has been working for and dreaming about for nearly a year has been cancelled. What's more, the Greater LA Girl Scout Council did not notify us - the local council did, when they found out by chance. Many, many tears 

here tonight. Epic fail by Girl Scouts. :(

The ISIS Teen

Good. It is not a racial issue, it is a religious and philosophical one. His commitment to those tenets, regardless of race, are abhorrent.

This Hip

I say this as neither an alibi or a plea for sympathy, but merely as a placeholder: this f'ing hip.

Dragonfire

Just finished watching "Dragonfire." As Classic Who goes, it's Ace!

Anthony Young

A heartfelt RIP to former MLB pitcher Anthony Young, infamous for losing 27 straight decisions. I remember following the heart wrenching streak. He has died of a brain tumor at 51 :(

The Trial of a Time Lord

4 stories under a single 14 episode title, there are a lot of ups and downs in this final appearance of the 6th Doctor. Baker's performance features a lot of overacting, the trial is as realistic as Legally Blonde, and it all just feels a bit tired and sad. But it wasn't all bad.

Camp Archery

LK Goes to Camp

Dropping LK off at the camp bus stop was not easy-peezy, as the line took more than twenty minutes to advance. But whatev. She was in great spirits and I hope she had a blast at camp.

In the wake of the most recent CNN retraction of a "Russia Russia Russia" story, two reporters and an editor have been terminated.
