Gift-giving advice

Pssst. Everyone. I have a question. While Tim's out of town and not paying attention to my blog ranting...

Do you have any ideas for him for Father's Day?

I have a stellar plan for his 40th birthday coming up in July. But I'm drawing a blank for Father's Day.

We all know his obsessions: cycling and photography. He's also a Packers and Brewers fan. He enjoys books and movies and documentaries about history and politics. He loves being outdoors, camping and canoeing and hiking and such.

So help me. Any ideas, no matter how off the wall, will be appreciated. E-mail them to me, so just in case he's dinking with his iPod Touch, the secrets won't be revealed.

We're so sneaky, you and me.

Hope you come up with some good suggestions. And maybe an "extra" that you can pass along to us. After all, it's a special birthday!
Love, mom

Is it OK to own a Canadian?

In her radio show, Dr Laura Schlesinger said that, as an observant Orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22, and cannot be condoned under any circumstance. The following response is an open letter to Dr. Laura, written by a U.S. resident, and posted on the Internet. It's funny, as well as informative: Dear Dr. Laura: Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination ... End of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God's Laws and how to follow them. 1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexic...

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...
