Merry Christmas!
It’s here! Amid the feasting and unwrapping and searching for batteries, pause for a moment and remember the one whose birth we celebrate. Since the generic Propecia is in demand, you can samples of levitra also buy generic Propecia online too. Some women face problems while having sex and do not have to worry about […]

Terrible Tuesday: The final countdown
Just a few more hours in which to cram your last minute preparations. I still have some last minute shopping, God help me. It’s not too much, though and or at *gulp* a mall. Other than those last few items, everything is wrapped, which frankly is kinda huge for me. Less than one day ’til […]

D-Day
Today is the last day to sign up for health insurance to be covered by the original January 1 deadline set by Obamacare. Things are changing day by day, so that deadline — at least for the purposes of getting hit with the tax — is probably not valid. Although if you are relying on […]

Christmas longing
My favorite Christmas carol is “O Come, Emmanuel.” It is so hauntingly beautiful, but when performed on cello, it’s almost heartbreaking. Unlike most Christmas hymns, it is not primarily joyful and triumphant. It is a song of longing, although longing in assurance: “Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel.” It is […]

The Santa dilemma
Do you Santa? Mollie Hemingway has a nice collection of tales from the poor deprived folks who never had Santa or who don’t do Santa for their kids. It reminded me of this hilarious tale from the Deputy Headmistress about getting called out on the big Santa lie by her tiny daughter. I don’t remember […]

A Visit from St. Nicholas (or The Night Before Christmas) By Clement Clarke Moore (or maybe not) ‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be […]

Expansive death
Last week, Belgium took steps to expand its euthanasia law to include children. After ten years of legal euthanasia there, the European Institute of Bioethics reported that the various safeguards and limits originally written into the law are routinely ignored. We saw the same thing in The Netherlands, the first country to accept euthanasia in […]

Inside crazy
Coca-Cola has a new commercial out that’s one of those “Oh yes, exactly! Hey, is it getting dusty in here?” things. Well, at least that was my reaction and the reactions of the plethora of other parents who shared it on Facebook and Twitter. A lot of childless people probably wondered a bit at […]

Terrible Tuesday: the final countdown
One more week until Christmas. Are you ready? Am I ready? Evading the question links! Gmail users, change your settings to keep marketers (and others) from snooping. Why the State of the Union is a bad idea. Whatever it once was, it’s now just a political speech, given before a perfectly staged and captive audience. […]

Voiceless Monday
I’ve been battling a nasty cold for the past week or so. This morning, it sucker punched me by taking my voice. Great. For my girls, this won’t be too big of a deal. I’ve instructed them through elaborate interpretive dance to keep their cell phones handy so I can text them. I can answer […]
