Two years ago today I got my first taste of tear gas. Two years ago today 'police riot' ceased to be just an intellectual concept for me. It's weird to see all the shields and such, I forget the guns came

What a year this week has been. Had me a nice case of writer's block and then the news out of Texas didn't help things a bit. Made me want to rant and carry on but as cathartic as that might be it generally

Had us another rally for Roe here in Louisville yesterday. It'd originally been scheduled for Wednesday but weather forced a postponement. This time we gathered outside the federal courthouse at 6th and

They say time flies when you're having rum fun. Are we having fun yet? Seems like a setup to me. Why is it that time passes quickly only when we don't want it to? I'm beginning to think fun has its own

If you get water from a watering hole, does that make it holy water? If that's the case then Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming is the Land of the Holy Water. Seems like any way you turn there's another

Three quarters of a million people converged on the banks of the Ohio River here last weekend. Some came for the air show, some for the night's fireworks display. The rest were there to practice their

Managed to survive another Thunder Over Louisville yesterday! Most people I've been around in a very long time, they were expecting a crowd in the neighborhood of 800,000. My camera was on the fritz but

When we were in DC back at the beginning of the month we ended up spending some time in the city's Chinatown. Since I didn't go anywhere fun today I thought I'd share a few from that adventure for this

This past Sunday was Zombie Jesus Day which means this coming Saturday is Thunder Over Louisville! Thunder is the kickoff for the annual Kentucky Derby Festival, an airshow during the day followed by the

Who wants to live in the desert? On the plus side it never rains there but the downside to that is that it never rains there. It'd be great for your tan. And for getting to know your dermatologist. Lovely
