Before 9/11, the Iraqi war fiasco and Foleygate

I miss the good old days.
The beret, the blue dress, the Cuban cigars.

If you miss Monica like Dean Friedman and I do, watch this.

Even after all this time, Linda Tripp is still scary. Very scary.

I've heard those delusional Republicans already compare what Foley did to the Monica Lewinsky thing. It really makes your head throb in PAIN when they say stuff like that. Those two incidents aren't even in the same universe. Oh yes, two consenting adults (even though it was cheating and he did technically lie but who the hell cares in the grand scheme of things) and a 52-year-old Congressman sexually harrassing a 16-YEAR-OLD PAGE. Yes. That is exactly the same. What idiots.

And they're also telling people that even though they can't get Foley's name off the ballot, if they want a Republican they should still check Foley's box. Now tell me - what rational person would do that still? Although you know there are Republicans out there stupid enough to think that's a valid request.

Whenever I think of Linda Tripp, I immediately picture her as portrayed by John Goodman...

Thanks for the memory! :)

John Goodman as Linda Tripp looks better than Linda Tripp as Linda Tripp.

So, I Changed My Mind

More than four years ago, the blog and I parted ways. I needed a change. A whole lot happened in my world since then. I switched jobs a couple times. My kid went from an elementary school tween to a teenage high schooler. We built a new house and moved. Both my parents and my sister have passed. The world around me changed as well. Mass shootings, racism, the #metoo movement, a misogynistic bigoted narcissist in the White House ... go ahead, add to the list. Toss your woes into this dumpster fire we call 2019.  I appreciate my previous sentiment, that I was no longer wandering. But let's be honest, we're all trying to find our way through this mess. I decided to reboot the blog to give myself a creative outlet, a way to sort through the confusion and frustration and attempt to make sense of it all. I have a voice, and I'm not keen to silence it anymore. Guess what? I'm back, bitches.

In memoriam...

I remember the first time I heard the name "Les Anderson." A bunch of Wichita State University communication majors were sitting around on campus, talking about classes they planned to take. Several people warned me: watch out for Les Anderson. He was tough. He had a murderous grading scale. It was nearly impossible to get an A. They weren't kidding. But he wasn't tough just to be a tyrant. From his teaching sprang a fleet of incredible, successful journalists, writers, editors, broadcasters, public relations experts, advertisers, non-profit professionals...I could go on and on. Most importantly, he created a legion of people who wanted to make a difference in the world. The greatest gift Les gave to them all? He believed in them, cared about them for their own personal stories as well as the stories they told for class assignments or in the pages of his hometown newspaper. Les was my teacher. My boss. My mentor. My conscience. My champion. My friend. When I started c...
