Students Free to Thank Anybody, Except God
ANNAPOLIS, Md. — Maryland public school students are free to thank anyone they want while learning about the 17th century celebration of Thanksgiving (search) — as long as it’s not God.

I made some minor tweaks to the sidebar tonight. The weather forecast wasn’t as useful as I thought and I decided it didn’t deserve the prominent place it held near the top, so I dropped it all the way to the bottom. At the bottom used to be the Daily Manna, a bible verse for [...]

I can’t help it. I just don’t like them. Popcorn. Love the smell, hate the way that little thin paper-like kernal piece covers your tooth like lamination, then slides down below the gum line. Grrrr.

Kathleen Parker writes a fantastic article about how religion didn’t “work” for the Democrats during this election. Through their post-election soul-searching, Democratic leaders claim to have seen the light. The reason they lost – and the way to win – is God.
