President -In-Waiting Mike Pence appears at Hillsdale College (Home of the Fighting Daughter-In-Law Humpers. Go Humps!) and uses simple expressive  images to illustrate how America has gone to hell in a handbasket ever since the wool was pulled over our eyes by that slicker-than-snot-on-a-doorknob Kenyan feller: Our nation finds itself in the position of a [...]

With about six weeks to go before the election I think we’re all pretty exhausted already by the drip drip drip of the crazy life and times of Christine O’Donnell. Now she admits to “dabbling into” witchcraft and it’s almost like, ‘this is surprising’? I mean who among us has not drunk deeply from a [...]

I know he’s a puppy and you know he’s a puppy, but he doesn’t look much like a puppy anymore. He’ll probably use this picture on his fake ID

SOT catches McMegan fighting the Battle of Evermore Government Intrusion on the barren pink [...]

Along with what I think are fairly photogenic dogs I’m very fortunate to live in a house with an abundance of windows facing the ocean to the southwest which makes for some very dramatic lighting late in the day. It has become even more noticeable with these two as opposed to the previous beasties, with [...]

Professor Donald Douglas explains in words and deed what the expression “When all you have is a hammer…” means. The state of California should probably charge you for this lesson. God knows they can use the money since it seems pretty obvious that they are just throwing it around…

Before we start, this is both amusing and sad. Okay. Shuffle: Smithers- Jones – The Jam The Horses – Rickie Lee Jones The Tinderbox ( of a heart) – The Cocteau Twins Jack Wilson Said – Van Morrison Vamos – The Pixies City of Angels – Ozomatli (with Sublime long gone, the best band in [...]
