The meaning of life? 42

ConservaChick had a one-year blog anniversary this month and now it's her "air-breathing human" anniversary. Thanks to the humorous genius of Douglas Adams, this year has special meaning: it is, after all, the meaning of life. Evidently, I will find enlightenment this year.

"A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing." -- George Bernard Shaw

Thanks, George. According to you, I have led an honorable and useful life so far.

Hello. You don't know me, nor will you ever. I'm glad to see a Republican reinforcing stereotypes about her political stance. Ronald Reagan is hardly a hero. He's a sadist. Thank to aptly titled noun, "Reaganomics", many of small, family owned business went under and many went straight into bankruptcy. And not to mention the then budding crisis of AIDS, which he completely ignored for eight years. You're a white woman who grew up in what I'm pretty sure was a W.A.S.P. household with some nice privlages. You Republicans and your capitalism! It's laughable. You all always think you're getting everything done. In reality, you're setting us back. Public education is something none of you care about. Why should you? Mommy and daddy paid for private school. Don't think by any means I'm some whacked out liberal. I'm not. I'm far worse. Wake up and smell the Folger's, sweetheart, 'cause your country which you cling to so god damned much is going straight to hell. So take that gun the NRA gave you for being a bigot and blow a hole through your chin.

Yes, "The Red," I *do* know you. You are not unfamiliar to me. There are plenty out there just like you so your commentary, however perverse, is old hat.

Thank you for your open-minded, tolerant views. I'm always in the mood for the familiar ranting of idiots. Makes more entertaining reading for the rest of us!

Hi Dawn,

Sorry I missed saying, "Happy Birthday." But, I am now saying I hope it was a good one for you. I've been sort of remiss in posting and reading of late.

As the Blog Turns...

Gee. I have found myself fascinated by the soap opera unfolding in the comments section of this blog since last night. One little mention on a controversial Democrat's blog and it's High Noon on ConservaChick! (Yes, I'm laughing while I type this.) For those of you who have no idea what's happening in the ever-expanding comments section , join the club! Here's what I know about Mark Nickolas from bits and pieces I've read on his blog, and from a local news report: Nickolas likes to sneer at Republicans and call them snide little nicknames as he provides his "Unfiltered and Candid Look at Politics, Politicians and the Media in Kentucky;" he raised a ruckus within the Democrat party here in Kentucky by filing a suit against the chairman of the party , Jerry Lundergan; and he will be appearing on the same panel with yours truly on Thursday night. That's about it. You now have the benefit of my not-so-extensive knowledge on this subject. Nickolas poste...

Friday Night with Hugh and Friends

The consummate Conservative host, Hugh Hewitt, and yours truly! Shameless of me to post this, I know; however, I'm too jazzed to care. :-p What a wonderful way to spend a Friday night! After an hour or so wandering through some of the exhibits at the Frazier Historical Arms Museum, I then got to spend three hours with Hugh Hewitt and 599 other fans of his show. I absolutely MUST say that not only was Hugh wonderful and the live show very entertaining, but his fans are absolutely the nicest people! I've seen other radio talk show s done live and mingled with fans of those shows. Hugh Hewitt's fans are the nicest, most down to earth, friendly people I've ever met. It's quite a credit to Hugh that he draws such a fan base. If you haven't been to the Frazier Historical Arms Museum here in Louisville, it's a must-see. The museum shows an amazing artistry with the exhibits and places them in the context of the times in a very entertaining and educationa...

Is conscription the prescription?

US Representative, Charlie Rangel (D-NY) is at it again. Rangel's prescription for fixing the ills we're feeling in Iraq is a draft . I have very mixed feelings about this. Conscription is conscription no matter what you choose to label it. Is that appropriate in a free country? On the flip side of this coin, I've often thought that compulsory national service would be a great idea for American kids right out of high school. It might have been a better start for me than learning to down beer at a Liberal Arts university! Two years in the service might give kids time to think about their future, learn higher levels of responsibility, and begin to take life more seriously. There are many countries who require some level of mandatory military service: Belarus, Chile, China, Croatia, Serbia, Russia, Iran, Lebanon, our neighbor Mexico, and our old buddy Germany, to name a few. Gee, now that I look at that partial list... aren't many of those countries Socialist or at battl...
