Monday Morning Quarterback (on a Friday night)
What can I say about last night's final preseason game for the Washington Redskins? It was another disappointing loss. On some plays, it looked as if it was the beginning of training camp instead of the end. One bright spot: quarterback Todd Collins. His experience in Al Saunders' offense shows. With 12 years' experience, he … Continue reading Monday Morning Quarterback (on a Friday night)
Offline blogging tool:Windows Live Writer
Most of the time, I have internet access, using my bluetooth cell phone when no other options exist. I usually write my posts online. But I've been wondering about the offline blogging tools out there and one that I ran across is Windows Live Writer, which I am using to write this post.

The shrinking Virginia blogsphere
Virginia is losing two good people in the blogsphere. The Jaded JD is signing off today, supposedly at midnight but I am unable to access his blog as I write this. His final post as it appeared in the aggregator: If he comes up for anything, it will be to get rid of me. … Continue reading The shrinking Virginia blogsphere
Monday morning quarterback 8/28/06
OK, so somebody decided that Saturday night's Redskin game against the Patriots should be blacked out in my area. As the result, I didn't get to see the game. I didn't listen to it on the radio, either. But it seems that I didn't miss much, if this article is to be believed. 41-0 is … Continue reading Monday morning quarterback 8/28/06
The Pulpit Speaks: August 25, 1956
An article written by my father, the Rev. C. Thomas Paige, as it appeared in the Tri-State Defender on the date shown. Some years ago, a prominent American said "I'd rather be right than president." To me, this is a repetition of the great requests made by David of old. On any number of occasions, … Continue reading The Pulpit Speaks: August 25, 1956
Retail Alliance: Commonwealth Coalition partner
The front page of the Virginian-Pilot today contained a story about the business groups opposing the Marshall Newman amendment. Featured is Retail Alliance, located in Norfolk. Opponents of the amendment, which is on the ballot Nov. 7, say it could hamper businesses' ability to recruit and retain gay workers, and they worry that it could … Continue reading Retail Alliance: Commonwealth Coalition partner

Partisans PAC Fundraiser
Last year, the Virginia Partisans enthusiastically supported my candidacy for Treasurer. Their support was featured in the now infamous "flier incident" that was used to smear me during the campaign (the source of which was never determined). Like last year, I will be making the trip to Northern Virginia next week to participate in their … Continue reading Partisans PAC Fundraiser

In addition to supporters from throughout the region, campaign manager Claire Gastanaga was there, along with EV Executive Director Dyana Mason and CC Board Chairman Jay Squires. Amid the wine and cheese, we were reminded of the task we face … Continue reading CC Hampton Roads office opening
