Tom's Quest For Sanity: May 2010
http://tomqpublic.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Tom's Quest For Sanity. Thursday, May 20, 2010. I Axe You to Talk Good American. Are beginning to make us look stupid. So, I thought I'd do my best to try and help get us back on the right track with a handy-dandy guide to my pet peeves of modern English (part 1). Ginormous" is not a word. It never has been and, if I have anything to say about it, it never will be. It's a moronic melding of two legitimate words, gigantic. Is not a verb. To yourself, if it makes you feel any better. There is no a. If you ...

Tom's Quest For Sanity: Tomorrow is ... International Burn the Dove World Outreach Center Day!
http://tomqpublic.blogspot.com/2010/09/tomorrow-is-international-burn-dove.html
Tom's Quest For Sanity. Thursday, September 9, 2010. Tomorrow is . International Burn the Dove World Outreach Center Day! I have a better idea. How about, on September 10, we engage in a little incendiary ecclesiastical celebration of our own - a bit of "pious pyromania", if you will? It's time, my brothers and sisters, to join hands in a congregational conflagration of eyebrow-singeing, kerosene-soaked worship that I believe - I say, I believe! Degree from an unaccredited (read: not worth a crap). And w...

Tom's Quest For Sanity: Happy "90210 Day"!
http://tomqpublic.blogspot.com/2010/09/happy-90210-day.html
Tom's Quest For Sanity. Thursday, September 2, 2010. Yes, today is 9/02/10 . so what better day to celebrate that most '90s of all '90s TV shows, "Beverly Hills, 90210"! Not the mediocre remake that's running now, mind you (hey, even Jennie Garth had the sense to bail on that one), I'm talking the original, the vintage, the classic! If you're too young to remember that show, you really missed out. Anyway, to celebrate, I thought I'd show you the main title you probably don't remember: the very first.

Tom's Quest For Sanity: July 2010
http://tomqpublic.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Tom's Quest For Sanity. Thursday, July 22, 2010. Snowclones and Grammar Snobs. Betcha thought I'd never be back, huh? Well, it took me awhile, but sure as the sun keeps rising every morning, I'll sooner or later find something else to complain about. Well, this time I'm revisiting the topic of American English, and our questionable modern usage of it. Are you ready for some more made-up words and improperly used expressions? Here comes part 2 of my pet peeves of modern English! Irregardless" isn't a word.

Tom's Quest For Sanity: June 2010
http://tomqpublic.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Tom's Quest For Sanity. Saturday, June 12, 2010. Steppin' on Something that Stinks. I'll be taking a trip down to Southern California this summer, and will probably be visiting Hollywood. But unlike last time - since the Virgin Megastore closed down since my last visit - I don't expect to tread any sidewalks that are adorned with the stars of the world-famous Hollywood Walk of Fame. He got his star on the Walk just a couple of weeks ago . yup, right before his latest movie hit the theatres! Is there some...

Tom's Quest For Sanity: April 2010
http://tomqpublic.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Tom's Quest For Sanity. Friday, April 16, 2010. The other evening I watched an episode of the TLC series "Little People, Big World". In which a pair of 19-year-old twin brothers from Oregon, on their first trip by themselves to Europe, decide to take a pause in their sightseeing and partake of some history by visiting the notorious Dachau Concentration Camp. And to my incredulity, I see at least one crudely fashioned sign comparing President Barack Obama. To none other than German Chancellor Adolf Hitler.

Tom's Quest For Sanity: Identity Theft Made Simple
http://tomqpublic.blogspot.com/2010/12/identity-theft-made-simple.html
Tom's Quest For Sanity. Wednesday, December 8, 2010. Identity Theft Made Simple. It's usually something as relatively low-security as an email account, and sometimes as medium-sensitivity as a college student's registration account, but when you can email their boyfriend/girlfriend a hostile breakup note or a fictitious confession of infidelity ( which could be fun and. News reports everywhere have been saying that identity thieves are getting more and more clever, but that's only half the story. Ide...

Tom's Quest For Sanity: You Never Know...
http://tomqpublic.blogspot.com/2010/11/you-never-know.html
Tom's Quest For Sanity. Sunday, November 14, 2010. Do you want free money from the government? It's really simple to find out, too. All you have to do is go to www.unclaimed.org. Now, a couple months later, I've all-of-a-sudden got enough money that I could get myself a new iPod! At least, that's what I was going to get, but my stereo has finally gone kaput and I need to get myself a new one. But hey, ain't that cool? It's like getting a birthday or Christmas present from a total stranger!

Tom's Quest For Sanity: 'Tain't The Season
http://tomqpublic.blogspot.com/2010/11/taint-season.html
Tom's Quest For Sanity. Sunday, November 28, 2010. I have to wonder what happens come December to all the religious conservatives out there. The other eleven months of the year they're all in the faces of us secular folk about embracing Jesus as their savior and living "a Christian life" (whatever arbitrary criteria that phrase is supposed to fit), but where are they when the blatant commercialization of their holiest of holy days rears its ugly head?
