Olympics
- Our unpatriotic Olympians! – Fox Sports commentator critiques US Olympians — especially the gymnasts, especially Gabby — for not wearing the stars and stripes, calling it “soft anti-Americanism.”
- Fox Sports, racist? Perish the thought! – Oh, and another Fox Sports commentator sniffs at Serena Williams doing a little dance after her gold medal victory.
Serious stuff
- Why, yes, there is an attack on religious freedoms going on here – But it’s not against Christians.
- Seeking Sikh – Not a lot of folks know anything about the Sikh religion. It’s a shame that a tragedy like the temple shooting should be the first time people think about it, but better late than never.
- Managing managed animal populations – When there are too many animals of a particular breed or breeding line, zookeepers in different countries vary on the best way to control the population.
- The Crew of the “Enola Gay” – And their thoughts over the decades about the bombing of Hiroshima.
- It’s too darned hot – Heat wave continues in Denver.
Fun stuff
- Star Crossed – The connection between Marilyn Monroe and Ella Fitzgerald.
- Advanced planning can help you avoid embarrassing situations – Great idea, faulty execution.
- Why do stubbed toes hurt so much? – Because, boy, do they.
- Lego “Serenity” is very shiny – Well done!
- So make the Bad Horse gleeful, or … – The Evil League of Evil is watching, so beware
- I take my paternal model from Calvin’s Dad – But this dad will do in a pinch.
- Playing around with Wireless N – My current home networking struggles.
- Life insinuates into art – Fun with statuary.
- Dumping Daredevil – If Marvel/Disney negotiates to let Fox keep Daredevil (or his film rights) longer, in return for some more Cosmic heroes, that would be a win-win.
- Concerted Effort – Kay preparing for a band concert this weekend.
