Homo Domesticus: August 2006
http://domesticus.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
The Life and Times of a Stay-At-Home Dad. Wednesday, August 30, 2006. Last week, you read about why Jacob got a new bike. This week may be about why I. I got about 100 yards before it fell off. I went to Lowes in search of the proper flange bolt. I found one that seemed right, but the fit was a bit funny. I was afraid to force the thing, and it was also looking like a special tool might be needed to do the job properly. So my attempt at self-repair was stymied. So I wound up at the place I had wanted to ...

M1ek's Bake-Sale of Bile. The Personal and Political Ramblings of one guy in Texas. Friday, April 30, 2004. I should get into slap-fights with Chris and Bubba more often, seeing as how it got me a lot more page-views than in, like, forever. Posted by: Jim / 10:38 PM. The Return of the Chickenhawk Meme. Means that John Kerry has had a very bad two weeks. Much worse, I suspect, than many of us here had thought. Hence, this speech of Sen. Frank Lautenberg's, via Hugh Hewitt. Have landed him in some hot wate...

M1ek's Bake-Sale of Bile. The Personal and Political Ramblings of one guy in Texas. Thursday, June 23, 2005. The Text of a Letter to Senators Cornyn and Hutchison. I am writing today to express my outrage over two different events. The first is the proposed amendment that would give Congress the power to prohibit "desecration" of the American flag. Has there really been such an epidemic of this kind of crime that merits the changing of the very foundation of our laws? If you feel the need to create a Con...

M1ek's Bake-Sale of Bile. The Personal and Political Ramblings of one guy in Texas. Tuesday, March 29, 2005. Review: Sailing The Wine Dark Sea. Sailing the Wine Dark Sea;. Why the Greeks Matter. Cahill came to most people's attention a few years ago with his book "How the Irish Saved Civilization". However, that was just one of a serious of books he is writing called "the Hinges of History". Sea is his section on the Greeks. In what turns out to be all too short a time, he covers a vast area of time and ...

M1ek's Bake-Sale of Bile. The Personal and Political Ramblings of one guy in Texas. Wednesday, August 03, 2005. Sorta-Not-Quite Review: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Let's see if this works this time. Last time I tried typing up my thoughts on the latest Potter, a freakish bolt of lightning caused a power flicker that zapped my document, despite the fact I was certain I'd already hit the save button a time or two. Okay I suppose I'll start with dislikes, since one has to start somewhere. I was ...

M1ek's Bake-Sale of Bile. The Personal and Political Ramblings of one guy in Texas. Thursday, May 27, 2004. Next week I'll be helping out with Vacation Bible School. I think the church council president would look askance on my getting directly involved (we board leader are supposed to plan, not work directly) but I think they needed the help. And its only in the kitchen. But I'll be busy and probably not blogging very much for a while. Posted by: Jim / 8:55 AM. Wednesday, May 26, 2004. Looks like there ...

M1ek's Bake-Sale of Bile. The Personal and Political Ramblings of one guy in Texas. Friday, January 30, 2004. Warning, Slow Blogging Ahead. With the wife-unit either out of town or preparing for her trip out of town, from Saturday 1/31 until Wednesday morning 2/4, I'm pretty much doing the single dad thing. Oh, and there's no school next Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. So I'll have Other Things To Do, y'know? Posted by: Jim / 12:51 PM. Thursday, January 29, 2004. This did not look good. No such luck. Alt...

M1ek's Bake-Sale of Bile. The Personal and Political Ramblings of one guy in Texas. Tuesday, March 30, 2004. Are we Really Rendering Unto Caesar? The first part of the famed Lemon Test. States that the statute in question must have a "secular legislative purpose". Okay, fine. But how do we determine the level of secularism? And does the motivation of the group making the proposal matter? Who argue that the government should work to help the poor. This same group strenuously opposes abortion (and, foolish...
