It occurred to me today that it's been a long time since I did a Limbaugh Quote post. Here's a short, sweet quote from Rush, about how he felt about school. I'd get up in the morning, get ready to go to school, and I would dread it. I hated it. My mother would have …
The State of Washington is divided by the North-South Cascade Mountains, a line of "extinct" volcanoes. The scare-quotes are real (see 1980's eruption of Mount St. Helens). The climate (in more ways than one) of each half of the state is dramatically different. The Western half is known as the "wet" half, due to the …
I just love watching out for funny or original signs, and they seem to be just about everywhere. In the 1980s, there was a popular TV series called Twin Peaks, that was filmed in the local town of North Bend, in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains. The town takes full advantage of that little …

Today, there is a story about the President of France wanting to "enshrine Abortion in the country's Constitution." Last year, the United States of America overturned a Supreme Court ruling that had made abortion legal everywhere, however, the US never went as far as adding Abortion to the US Constitution. That would have been a …
Does anyone want to hazard a guess? This is a subject which I have been "chasing" for a long time, and finally caught it on my way home from work today. IT'S A WAZZUBARU!
