Gerry Harbison shares his thoughts on McCook Community College’s creationism course, which is offered as a science class. Nice.

Two really unfortunate pieces of recent news, casting a negative light on the good people who are actually trying to make a difference. Study: Many U.S. Soldiers in Iraq Admit Abusing Civilians, Backing Torture In a survey of U.S. troops in combat in Iraq, less than half of Marines soldiers said they feel they should […]

Just woke up from my post-race nap. I ran the Lincoln half-marathon this morning. It was raining and windy for about the first half, which didn’t bother me too much, but I didn’t think about the rain on the ground. My shoes and socks got soaked, which led my feet to be sitting in water […]

I’m more than a week late on this, but there’s an amazing piece at the UNO College Democrats blog on the Heineman / Hagel / Bruning dynamic.

I happened to scan this drawing at different stages because I was considering keeping it in the rough pencil sketch stage, so I thought I’d share the progression of this particular piece. It’s an illustration of wrestler Mick Foley for a Pro Wrestling Torch review of his latest book. Here are the original pencils, which […]

Within the last hour, Sara and I have experienced two major events. We just ordered our Morrissey tickets!! I haven’t seen Morrissey live since December of 1997 at the Battersea Power Station in London. A friend and I wandered over there from across the Thames in hopes that there were still tickets available. It was […]
