Banned by USA Today. Thanks, Sarah.

I left a comment on a USA Today news article titled; Palin attacks Rahm Emanuel for using the word ‘retarded’. It was flagged as inappropriate.
Now just to be clear on things, I have watched this woman’s antics ever since it was first announced that she had been picked as John McCain’s running mate (Sarah who?). [...]

Time for renewal?

By Kirk M | Published November 9, 2009

 

Temporarily beaten by an underhanded theme author who set up a theme to generate maleficent encrypted code once the theme was activated, I very nearly gave up the ship.
Don’t pull this crap on me when I’m in a bad mood–which is nearly all the time these days. It makes me want to chuck the [...]

By Kirk M | Published November 9, 2009

Went to the supermarket the other day just to do some “in between” shopping. Considering we have 4 cats “in between” shopping  usually means picking up around 25 to 30 items, a good potion of which are cans of cat food.

The 2nd coming is at hand and commenting on blogs?

By Kirk M | Published July 14, 2009

A tree was cut in Ireland in the town of Rathkeale. And within the patterns of the rings along with the unique shape of the stump of the tree someone stated that they saw the Virgin Mary.
It only takes one you know.
Okay, so another stain in the cloth, shadow on the wall, puddle on the [...]

Hummer made in China and beating a dead post

By Kirk M | Published June 5, 2009

It’s a terrible thing you know, beating a dead post while it just lies there and does nothing. You don’t accomplish anything either. No snarky wit or ingenious insight into a current situation comes of it. No witty turns of phrase abound that boggle the mind of the reader–just…nothing.
