Language Liberalism Freethought Birds
Verbing Weirds Language only if you're expecting it to work in a simple way. This is a special case of the more general truth that Language Weirds.
Only when a republic's life is in danger should a man uphold his government when it is in the wrong. There is no other time.
The church says Earth is flat; but I have seen its shadow on the moon, and I have more confidence in a shadow than the church.
If we can't find Heaven, there are always bluejays.
Mitt Romney's super PAC is running anti-Santorum ads. They weirdly (to me, but I'm not their target audience and probably this plays really well with them) accuse him of voting once with Hillary Clinton oh gasp!
I used to teach Russian and Ukrainian, and some basic English, to civil servants. Now I teach Russian at a local continued-learning institute. I dabble in Gaelic and Welsh. I'm am amateur photographer and I love birding (in a small way). I'm a Progressive, and a Freethinker, and I know Evolution is a fact - that's FCD, Friend of Charles Darwin (look down the sidebar). I read a lot, and follow women's college basketball. Also I love astronomy, though I'm a rank amateur at it. Most of all, I like living in the reality-based community...

P.S. Could you believe that the other night one of the clues was to name the NHL team that plays in Mellon Arena? The correct answer would be "none," because it's nearly all torn down now. The Penguins have been playing since last season in the new Consol Energy Center across the street. And they just clinched a play-off berth tonight. Yay, flightless birds!
I confess my strongest visual image of the Penguins is from Cheers ... when Eddie got hired as one and Carla was going on about how they had the coolest uniform even if it wasn't Boston and then he turned up in a mascot costume.
Ugh. I keep wanting to root for Romney because I hate Santorum so much. But then I remember I also hate Romney, and then I want to hide under the bed.
