It’s finally here. I haven’t weighed in a lot about politics over the last few months, but I’m not indifferent toward today’s election results. My thoughts just haven’t changed much since the election season began, which was seemingly right after the midterm elections of 2006. It’s been a long campaign season, and like many of […]

A helpful reminder
I had a great experience in school, from the very earliest days in elementary school all the way through college. My high school made me study like I was already in college, and I was better off academically for it. Since McCallie is a private school, they rely on alumni giving as a source of […]
Schedule for the week of August 25, 2008
Monday: Melissa’s birthday, no posts Tuesday night: 2008 fantasy football draft #1 (possible later post) Tuesday Wednesday: Braves Check: Is Anybody Still Watching? Edition (I didn’t think about the fact that my draft Tuesday night would get in the way of posting. I’ll try to have this up Wednesday and not go another week without […]
Is Georgia turning purple?
In response to ME’s post today about the IRS and separation of church and state, I thought I’d infiltrate the usual sports analysis with a few thoughts about the 2008 election. Where I Live In December 2006, I moved from an apartment in Chattanooga, Tennessee to a new house in Ringgold, Georgia. Along with all […]

Here are a few things I’ve been thinking about this week: I had planned to explore this in depth, but I got way too far off-topic with what I was writing to even think about posting it.

Weekly Notes: February 21, 2008
I didn’t do any notes last week, so here’s what’s going on: Let’s start with a quick comment or two on today’s big NYT story about John McCain’s relationship with a lobbyist: I don’t much care about the adultery angle, nor do I think this was a sinister plot by the Times to destroy the […]

The first week of February is in the books, so now you can get ready for Valentine’s Day next Thursday. Hopefully you take some time on days other than February 14th to make your special someone feel loved, though. I don’t exactly keep a list of things I never thought I would do, but later […]
Weekly Notes: January 11, 2008
2008 is already flying by for me because of the giant task at work known as YEAR END. Here’s what I’ve been thinking about this week: I’ve been thinking a lot about Ron Paul, and I want to make it clear that I don’t actually think he’s racist. I dug a bit more into the […]
Weekly Notes: January 4, 2008
It’s the first week of 2008 and there’s plenty to talk about. This afternoon I’ll have a review of Harding’s loss last night in Florence. If you’re looking for one site you can bookmark to get a nightly comprehensive college basketball TV schedule, this is the site: Eye On Sports Media. It’s especially nice if […]
Weekly Notes: December 28, 2007
Here are some thoughts as you think about how you’re going to watch the Pats-Giants game on three different networks tomorrow night: I would be slightly offended if I were a New York Giants fan who decided to make some money by selling my season ticket to tomorrow’s game to a Patriots fan.
