10 things I thought about posting on FB...

But didn't.

I blab too much. About stuff no one cares about. Those little, mundane moments of my day probably shouldn't be shared with all of Facebook. Certainly not all of the blogosphere.

But guess what. I'm in a mood. So the following are 10 things I thought about posting on my FB status today, then decided not to. Lucky you. You get them all right here at once. I will pause a moment while you collect yourself, reeling from the sheer excitement.

Amy Schoon:

1...just signed up for an online telecourse called "Re-Arranging Deck Chairs on the Titanic."

2...has two therapy appointments and another with her psychiatrist this week, in a span of two days. Welcome to 2010.

3...hopes Henry's current interest in blowing things up "with a bazooka!" is a phase that will pass quickly.

4...will never get warm. It's MINUS 20 wind chill out and feels like it's been this way since Christmas.

5...is thinking about signing up for an informal music group at church. An excuse to get out the clarinet in the dead of winter. Amy hopes her fingers don't freeze to the keys.

6...plans to make a chicken macaroni casserole in the Crock-Pot tomorrow. She only wishes she were going to be home all day to smell it cooking.

7...wonders how she's going to read the rest of Time Traveler's Wife (100+ pages) in one day, since tonight she's giving up real books forever in favor of her e-reader, the Nook. UPS is scheduled to deliver it today!!

8...made the mistake of getting vending machine coffee this a.m. since today is free beverage day at Pearson. Sometimes NO coffee is better than free coffee.

9...would love to adopt a Scottie, if one found its way to her door.

10...smiles when she recalls the last thing Henry said as she was walking out the door: "Mom. You're the best."

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...
