Oh… this should be a hoot… Moi comparing Liberalism and Conservatism. A comparison from my goofy (read: disfunctional) mid-American, semi-Caucasian (with non-caucasian family members), and a slightly political transformed vantage point. Wait… I’m lost… OK, I’m back.
I decree that this shall be my first major, epic, yet humorous examination […]
Recently, my brother joined his 7 yr old son on field trip with some other parents/children to a farm. They were all looking at a cow when the farmer began describing (paraphrase): “This cow is an dairy cow. She gets milked twice per day. She has 4 stomachs. She […]

Our band, REV21 has been honored to learn that their song, “Hush” is being added to a compilation disc of pro life artists/songs that will be passed out during the 36th annual March For Life rally in Washington, DC. Hush, from the CD “In The Twinkle Of An Eye” is a fun rocking parent/child […]
