Alabama Blue Dot: May 2008
http://alabamabluedot.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 24, 2008. Sounds like Bull to me. This has to be a drive-by post; lots of house cleaning and car cleaning going on today. Many others have commented quite eloquently on LaLa the Mayor's "decision" to not sign a proclamation or approve a parade permit for the nearly 20-year-old Pride Parade. He says a "personal lifestyle choice" should not be "endorsed by government.". Saturday, May 24, 2008. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I will not die an unlived life.

Alabama Blue Dot: March 2009
http://alabamabluedot.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 8, 2009. PACT, promises and politics. An interesting fact: on the PACT home page now, the plan is described as a "529" plan. But that is not what it was when it started. In fact, we got a 529 plan from out of state because Alabama did not have one at the time. Folks, pre-paid college tuition is not the same as a 529 investment plan and the PACT folks are stretching the truth by describing it that way. Segrest seeks PACT changes: State treasurer candidate says tuition program in trouble.

Alabama Blue Dot: September 2011
http://alabamabluedot.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 25, 2011. Half that tree, a phone book, and a broken arm, that's all we had left.". People like the family in rural Alabama whose entire life disintegrated in the wind. The title of this post came from them. They are trying to rebuild, living in a FEMA trailer and getting regular visits from case workers who work with them to find a permanent place to live. Except thanks to Republicans, now they might not. The people who work for FEMA in disasters are not regular federal employees. ...

Alabama Blue Dot: The first thing you notice is the sky
http://alabamabluedot.blogspot.com/2011/05/first-thing-you-notice-is-sky.html
Sunday, May 8, 2011. The first thing you notice is the sky. The lights didn’t even flicker at our house the afternoon of April 27. The cable TV stayed on. That morning, when the squall line came through, the trees came down a quarter-mile from our house, but we just heard hail and hard rain while we hunkered downstairs. Then the sun came out but the warnings kept coming and so we watched. But I am ultimately a practical person and it does no good to dwell on could have beens. What does help is to tel...

Alabama Blue Dot: Cruelty ≠ Love
http://alabamabluedot.blogspot.com/2012/10/cruelty-love.html
Tuesday, October 2, 2012. Cruelty ≠ Love. She is NOT going to secretly love it - when she says no, she fucking MEANS IT! If you're in a relationship with someone who treats you like this, get out because he/she will throw you in one day. Tuesday, October 02, 2012. I completely agree about that stupid and unhelpful meme, and with exactly the same points you made. (so I made this) ;) http:/ pinterest.com/pin/98727416804077327/. April 24, 2013 at 12:45 AM.

Alabama Blue Dot: August 2008
http://alabamabluedot.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 28, 2008. Waiting for the bus. How could anyone be so cruel to a child? I somehow understood that the people who made those rules really did not see these children as people. If they did, they would not be so cruel as to force them to watch as other children went to a beautiful shiny school while they had to wait for a bus. Thursday, August 28, 2008. Links to this post.

Alabama Blue Dot: April 2008
http://alabamabluedot.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 27, 2008. Two Boats and a Helicopter. Here's another story: In Wisconsin, parents let their little girl die. She was sick, from diabetes it turns out, but they wouldn't take her to a doctor because they believe in the Bible and that prayer would heal her. Langford and his preachers and an awful lot of Birmingham's citizens are like those parents. Why do you think that you do not already have the attention of God? And more importantly, what exactly do you expect God to do? Links to this post.

Alabama Blue Dot: June 2008
http://alabamabluedot.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 16, 2008. If it weren't for the earthquakes, I'd send my daughter to California to go to college and live her life. Because in California, my amazing Anna would be able to marry the girl of her dreams if she wanted to. I have to admit I never considered myself the marrying kind, and when I did marry at the age of 30 it took some adjusting. Nearly 22 years later, I look back on the adventure and think, why would people want to deny this opportunity to anyone? How does that work? As far as I'm...
