Friday (not so) funny: church member defends pastor

I happened to have caught the interview below when it aired a couple of nights ago. The pastor of her church has called for gays and lesbians to be put into concentration camps behind electric fences and left to die. (I bet not even Del. Bob Marshall would go quite that far.) The funny part … Continue reading Friday (not so) funny: church member defends pastor →

Friday fun: are you a wimp?

Two things in today's paper that made me choose this quiz. First there was this article on the southside mayors and their stances on the upcoming tolls. They gathered yesterday at Regent University as part of the  Executive Leadership Series. (Sometimes, the jokes just write themselves.)

Friday fun: do you get enough sleep?

With the start of Daylight Savings Time this Sunday (which I absolutely hate), I found this little quiz about sleeping. You Sometimes Don't Get Enough Sleep You're often more tired than you'd like, and you're probably not getting enough quality sleep. Sleeping a little more could make you a lot more energetic and happy. Try … Continue reading Friday fun: do you get enough sleep? →

This doesn't mean … Continue reading Friday fun: are you a feminist? →
