Wow, the year is already almost a third over. WHERE IS ME LIFE GOING?
Celine Dion, who I already can't stand, has given me another reason to not like her: she's turning her son into a mini Imelda Marcos. Well, she's no better, and even if it's her son wearing her heels, it's still nuts. Or am I just bias against Dion?

I just wish our generation were also better educated too, as in at the same level as our European counterparts. But this story reinforces the reason why I am so proud of my generation: this high school in Georgia just held it's first integrated prom, and it's because the graduating class thought having two separate proms was ridiculous.

And although I believe in rational taxation to pay for generous government services, I also
And finally, Rick Perry confuses me on his political leanings. Is he a libertarian-anarchist-populist conservative? In the case of the legislators, I'll side with them. Texas schools could use some work.
