  • Driven To Distraction


    The Cycle — Authority Authority: 111
    I think cell phone use (whether for chatting or -- heaven forfend -- texting) while driving should be banned. Seriously. Why? Allow me to illustrate with a little people-watching exercise. I work in downtown Des Moines, which is connected by a fairly extensive skywalk system. In effect, its an elevated ant farm for ...

  • Note To The Storm: Im Sorry! So Knock It Off!


    The Cycle — Authority Authority: 111
    I didnt think much of it the other day when I snarkily commented on the predicted "Storm of the Century" bearing down on us. Unfortunately, it heard me, and absolutely WALLOPED Des Moines. Something like 15" of snow, 30mph winds with gusts to 50, and now the temps are plummeting, with wind chills predicted to be ...

  • Inappropriate Eating


    TALK TO THE HUMP — Authority Authority: 106
    Okay, its time to denounce a practice that I keep seeing but will never accept. Nor should I. I am talking about the scourge of eating on public transit — what are you people thinking?! This is not just about hygiene, although if you are really trying to consume everyone elses viruses and bacteria, you ...

  • Hypocrisy


    TALK TO THE HUMP — Authority Authority: 106
    Today, the Swiss voted in a national referendum to ban the construction of minarets in their country. They voted convincingly enough that this measure will be added to the Swiss constitution. Now, Im no friend of religion, and certainly no friend of one that in many of its manifestations would rather see me ...

  • Solving Whose Problem?


    PA Pundits - International — Authority Authority: 560
    By Thomas Sowell No one will really understand politics until they understand that politicians are not trying to solve our problems. They are trying to solve their own problems— of which getting elected and re-elected are number one and number two. Whatever is number three is far behind. Many of the things ...

  • Big talk, for a guy who’s never been in a fight.


    Gecko Bloggle — Authority Authority: 114
    Arwen’s been pointing something out to me over the last few months (maybe longer, and it’s only sinking in now) and it’s about violence.  In specific, it’s about me having violence as the go-to when it comes to why certain things just shouldn’t be done. I was talking about something I saw on the Skytrain ...

  • Making A Mountain Out of a Hell Hole


    Gecko Bloggle — Authority Authority: 114
    I didn’t go to last night’s AGM at Mole Hill.  Not only did I not run for re-election, but I didn’t even go to vote.  Show’s how little faith I have left in whether or not the board is still a functioning part of the Society. I don’t feel like I’ve given everything I can, but I do feel like I tried to ...

  • Monday, where’d ya go?


    Gecko Bloggle — Authority Authority: 114
    Wake. Work. Food. Clean. CDW5 . Kids to bed. TV. Tea. Here. Hi. Remember when Avril Lavigne was a singer?  At least, that was her listed profession?  When will she get back to that, instead of doing dippy digital camera ads. While we’re at it, can all the comedians who are still doing the “I hate my ...
