Metal Up Your Bottom

The vocals suck (of course) — the kid hasn’t had enough years to reach puberty and then drink and drug his voice into Hetfield range but the rest is OK. (faintly in the background you can hear someone yell… “That’s my effin’ boy!”)

Irish Setter Dad

Floyd — Sat, 02 Apr 2011 14:51:55 +0000

You all may be familiar with the brouaha a few weeks ago when Yale Law professor Amy Chua released a book about how Chinese parents — Moms in particular — are superior to American parents. “Tiger Moms” she glossed it. Finally…. P.J. O’Rourke has gotten around to putting this issue in its proper perspective in [...]

Once Great Britain

Floyd — Tue, 01 Mar 2011 22:00:58 +0000

Gape in to the face of evil for post-modern Britons.

The UK as lost its way…

From the UK Daily Mail:

A Christian couple facing a foster parenting ban because of their views on homosexuality were told by a court yesterday that gay rights ‘should take precedence’ over their religious beliefs.

Owen and Eunice [...]

The Dad Abides

What Are You Prepared to Do?

The sermon at my church this morning was on love and the extent to which we were prepared to go to show love to family and friends (next week is love towards strangers) building off the Scripture verse… “Greater love has no man than this, that he [...]

Cinderfella

Floyd — Mon, 03 Jan 2011 20:14:18 +0000

I remember seeing reruns of Bugs Bunny or Milton Berle in drag as a kid. But this is a bridge too far. Part of being a parent is to help set your kids on the right course — especially at age 4 and 5. The Invictus “captain of my soul” worldview is dubious enough [...]

It Takes Parents To Raise A Child

Floyd — Wed, 08 Dec 2010 17:51:21 +0000

The village has had its day. It’s high time for parents to reassert control over their children — all aspects on our children’s lives — full frontal assault. I don’t know much about California’s “Parent trigger” law allowing parents to demand a public school be run as a charter school. The union hates it [...]

The Dad Abides

Floyd — Sat, 18 Sep 2010 21:22:51 +0000

This is why our society is so messed up. Come on prosecutors — do the right thing and drop this case, arrest the kids and allow this father to sue their parents — and fire that damn bus driver. Sure you CAN charge him — but was that really the intent behind the law? [...]

This is how it ends…

Absolutely disgusting…

Long Island Man Arrested For Defending Home With AK-47 Says Many Gang Members Were Coming After His Family

He fired four shots into his lawn and was arrested by Police for “reckless endangerment”. According to Police it’s not enough if someone (or 20 or so in this case) verbally threaten you and your [...]

Atlas Shrugging in the Playground

Floyd — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 14:06:54 +0000

I’ve never liked Ayn Rand — and this tongue in cheek story reminds me why…

When little Aiden toddled up our daughter Johanna and asked to play with her Elmo ball, he was, admittedly, very sweet and polite. I think his exact words were, “Have a ball, peas [sic]?” And I’m sure you [...]
