I'm a 1 Percenter

I'm a one percenter, and I'm hear to say I can afford it and am quite willing to pay it if everyone who makes the same money that I do does the same. Although I must say that it really sometimes comical to watch the way that Republicans and conservative Democrats whip up people who make far less than I do to object to taxing me. The stupidity of the people who vote Republican never ceases to amaze me. Ninety-five percent of them vote against their economic interests every time.

Big Correction

Sixteen Candles wasn't Molly Ringwald's "first big movie role." Not even close. That would have been Paul Mazursky's Tempest. Sixteen Candles was a fine movie and Ringwald was good enough in it. But Tempest was a much better movie and Ringwald did much better work there. Sixteen Candles, nor Ringwald's performance in it, couldn't hold a candle -- so to speak -- to Sixteen Candles.

You didn't want the guy. You sister may. None of YOUR business. Wish them happiness and go on about YOUR business.

Why Is This News

Why is this news now? Edwards isn't running for political office and hold no public position. It seems to me that the media -- Salon.com included -- puts itself in the gutter with the National Inquirer when it publishes crap like this (true or not). It's bad enough that the sphere of what is private is so small these days for public officials. It is always amazing to me that anyone would run for public office. But once someone has gone back to private life and no longer holds or seeks public office, his private life should be just that -- private.

The Problem With Obama

I supported Obama over Hillary after John Edward got out of the race because I thought that he was more electable. I've now decided that you could carve a man with more spine out of an overripe banana.

No Real News Today . . . .

. . . or you just couldn't think of anything intelligent to write about? Isn't there enough celbre-trash "journalism" in the world without it invading Salon.com? If not, just take the day off.

Seek Psychiatric Help

Before you decide to do anything, seek psychiatric help. It is entirely possible that you are suffering from major depression, dysthymia, adjustment disorder, or some combination thereof. There are medications that can significantly help with those conditions.

As for Cary's suggestion about cognitive therapy, it can be a useful adjunct to meds, and helps some people in the absence of meds. But I'd go see a psychiatrist first.

Simple Answer

Go see a psychiatrist. Even if it's at your own expense. It will be worth it.

But What About . . . .

When reading the sports page in the Dallas Morning News this week, I see that they use "there" in a quote when they should have used "their." According to Ms. Miller's logic, this if acceptable?

No thanks. I'll pass on living in that kind of world.
