Satirical truth from a less than reputable source. Saturday, May 2, 2015. May Day May Day. Every year on May 1st when I was growing up, my sisters and I would gather lilacs, tulips, and daffodils from the flower beds and bundle them together with ribbon. Then we would pick some neighbors on whose doorstep to leave one of our homemade bouquets. Those May Day bouquets are a thing. Deeply rooted in a centuries old Pagan celebration. Of course, for us it just meant spring was finally. Traditionally, the flow...

Closed Captioned: The Long Road from Selma
http://biggerthanshamu.blogspot.com/2015/04/the-long-road-from-selma.html
Satirical truth from a less than reputable source. Tuesday, April 28, 2015. The Long Road from Selma. Over the past eight months or so there has been an influx in riots in the United States. Throughout the Eastern and Southeastern U.S., police cars have been set aflame, store windows have been broken out, tear gas released, and innocent people shot and killed. While I am not one to draw light parallels to 1930s Germany, some of the images in the news conjure up comparisons to Kristallnacht. In December E...

Satirical truth from a less than reputable source. Monday, December 30, 2013. Christmas is for . . . Kids from one to ninety-two.". The nice ones.". We spent an hour in each area of the prison, including maximum security and the women's prison. At first I was a bit uneasy. I mean, what. Had these people done? And what were they capable of doing to me? There was a loud clamor as the steel bars banged to a close behind us and we walked to the front of the room and stood in front of the convicts. And heaven...

Satirical truth from a less than reputable source. Saturday, June 9, 2012. I am a dreamer, a hoper, a wisher, a goal-setter, and a day-dream believer; but a resolution-maker, I am not. In fact, I have unintentionally adopted this attitude toward New Year's Resolutions:. Get a gym membership. Done. Walking past the gym last week Dad asked me how their free weights were. I told him I didn't know - they were charging me not to use them. I discovered, through the next few movements, that I clearly must have ...

Satirical truth from a less than reputable source. Wednesday, April 29, 2015. A Future for Humanity. In the name of love: this Baltimore native spent hours cleaning up the streets of his neighborhood after rioting left them littered with rubble. Stand by me: Citizens of Baltimore created a perimeter of protection for the police officers, standing between law enforcement and the rioters trying to avenge the memory of Freddie Gray. Tuesday, April 28, 2015. The Long Road from Selma. Over the past eight mont...

Satirical truth from a less than reputable source. Saturday, June 6, 2015. Today is the day in 1944 that more than 4,000 men lost their lives on five French beaches. It was the thick of World War II, and the Allies invaded Normandy and turned the tide of the War. More than 10,000 men were wounded 71 years ago today. That's a big number. That's a debt I can never repay to men I can never thank. Freedom isn't free. A lot of people had to fight for it. A lot of people had to die for it. There's only one way.
