Today I watched the documentary entitled “Crawford” which was made by David Modigliani. It’s available for viewing for free on Hulu ( http://www.hulu.com/watch/37906/crawford ). I feel bound to mention up front that I have some familiarity with the subject matter. One of my first real dates was with a girl from Crawford. One of [...] Since the United States of American is quickly turning into the Socialist Republic of New Europa, I thought it might be interesting to memorialize each of our states before they fade quietly away. The interesting part, actually, will be Dave Barry’s take on each of the states, as described in his wonderful tome “Dave [...] Judith Beheading Holofernes One of these was painted by Artemisia Gentileschi. Gentileschi was raped by a powerful man to whom she was entrusted by her father.

And in honor of fossil fuel, how ’bout a little Boxcar Willie:

The best version is sung in Westminster at Princess Diana’s funeral as her cortege exits, but I couldn’t find a copy without TV narrative and showing her funeral is a bit creepy in any case. In any case… beautiful piece of music — not written for Diana [...] Read See all about it … Sometimes material from Mr.EPluribus becomes orphaned, not making the final cut of the show.

Over a hundred years later, the March family remains a template on how a good man or good woman should live their lives. And the most inspiring of the four daughters of a [...] Movies that move culture are rare. A gift and oddity that rests in the influential – that rare moment of timing, correct pieces and mustering of talent, to create something that moves someone else, and them in turn. Ask of movies that influenced the youth this decade, you’ll hear a list of Dark Knights, [...] Share on Facebook I’m sure you’ve all read or heard about the 4 Oakland Police Dept, officers killed by a parolee last weekend. It seems some outfit called the “Uhuru Movement” held a vigil in honor of the deceased shitbag this past week also. About 60 people marched and rallied in Oakland on Wednesday to condemn the police [...] June Cleaver’s post on child rearing — triggered by a news item of a 14-year old girl posting nude photos of herself online for her boyfriend to view and then being arrested for child pornography – triggered this memory for me.
