Updated Blog Roll

It’s been a while since I put up my blog roll. I thought that I would add in some of the new blogs that I’ve run across and who I visit on at least a weekly basis. Give them a glance, I'm sure that they will all appreciated some extra traffic. Malkin won't notice but I'm sure she would appreciate it.

Michelle Malkin
Do I love this woman or what? A beautiful conservative Filipina. I would probably look like a leftwing nut job standing next to her.

Where There Were No Doors
Another blog from the British Isles. For some reason, I just keep coming back to this one. Maybe it’s those little jabs at America? Could I be trying to balance my own views?

Kurticus Maximus
"Elitism: It’s Lonely at the Top, but it’s Comforting to Look Down Upon Everyone at the Bottom." If my cousin Jason, and a few of his friends could be wrapped up into one person, I think he would come close to this guy.

Major Mike
I like the military. If I had more discipline, I’d join it. There’s just so much I like about military culture that even I have adopted some of their… let’s say habits. Imagine the look on my manager’s face when I gave her an after action report on why the paper goods isle was not completely worked. There are plenty other vets out there, but this is the only one that I am regularly reading except for one person who is still in Iraq. I won’t give out that guy’s URL because some of what he says is a bit more private (despite his blog being accessible to the world.)

Twenty-Something
Patrick (“the blogger formerly known as Crash”) is one of my favorites. His 90s Something series which chronicles his coming out is simply great.

I’m Prepared to Give Up at Any Time
Exasperated is what comes to mind.

Meet Bob

 I ordered my Ford Escape PHEV on October 13, 2022 and I finally took delivery on September 1, 2023. h/t to my salesman Meet Bob. Actually, I thought I would come up with a better name since my last car was named Patty because I got her on St. Patrick's Day. But after spending about three minutes trying to think of something clever, I threw in the towel and settled on Bob. So this is a base model PHEV. It doesn't have things like a heads up display, 360 degree camera, premium audio system, etc. Mind you, I came from a base fiesta. Patty had roll-down windows and didn't even have cruise control. This is a very big upgrade for me. A little over two weeks in, I've hit 1,000 miles. I've tried to force some non-ev time. I'm not sure what kind of engine break in is needed for this. I figured I should do some of that and get its first oil change before I head down to Florida with it in November. So far, just one and one-quarter tanks of gas used. Averaging 86 mpg. Most

Be fruitful and multiply...by ten.

Some coworkers and I were talking about that lady in Arkansas that just delivered her 17th child. The Associated Press announced the good news a couple days ago and I remembered the family from the Discovery Channel . The Duggar family had been the subject of a number of specials dealing with large families. They are especially memorable given that the number of kids as well as their, well, peculiar lifestyle. The people that I was talking to balked at the idea of having that many kids with a few of them openly calling the Duggar parents crazy. I have to admit, I think that they are little bonkers in the head too. But you know, that’s cool on the other hand too. And it’s actually impressive that they are able to afford to have such a large family. There are some parts of me that would like to have a large family. (My definition of large stops at five kids just so you know.) But their criticisms largely used the Duggars' religious faith. From what this article indicated, they are pa

Whatever happened to the Queer Golden Rule?

Wow, Tyler Whitney is popping up all over the gay blogging circuit but the rest of America doesn’t care. Mr. Whitney is an 18 year old staffer for a Republican candidate for President. He was outed. This has caused a little firestorm amongst the gay bloggies with many calling this guy a bigot, an a-hole, and even worse. The way some people have responded to this, Mr. Whitney is fit to be tied to the stake and burned for not being a good little gay. I do not deny that Mr. Whitney has done some pretty offensive stuff. Carrying anti-gay placards that aren’t even fit to be called “homophobic” certainly strikes points against him. However, as I read more about him the more I genuinely feel the need to reach out and hug him. Because I know that he has got to be feeling pretty alone. He’s getting grief from two communities who are openly hostile to which he belongs -conservatives and gays. I have to ask though, is he really deserving of such scorn? Look, his “crime” is working for an
