Pretending to Be Offended Would somebody please tell me when we all became so damn sensitive about absolutely everything? Just when did we forget to laugh at life’s little absurdities every once in a while and recognize that satire encourages a healthy dialogue on the stereotypes it relies upon? The recent Simpsons controversy surrounding their […]
Dancing on Bill Cosby’s Grave This past Thursday, a Pennsylvania jury found Bill Cosby guilty of three counts of aggravated indecent assault for drugging and sexually assaulting Andrea Constand at his home in a Philadelphia suburb in 2004. But please excuse me if I am not standing up pumping my fist into the air and […]
Putin Flexing His Muscles Well, hi there boys and girls! Last week, we scared ourselves silly fretting about the looming danger of privacy invasions sparked by Facebook’s all-encompassing data collection on millions of its users. I don’t know about all of you, but I’ve been barely able to sleep all week, what with all those […]
Does Facebook Know You Better Than Your Own Mother? Do you use the internet? Yeah, me too. Which is precisely why the recent revelations regarding data trolling and Russian hacking have me just about set to soil my knickers.

The only people who still use the U.S. Post Office to contact me are catalog shillers and ex-girlfriends, neither of whom I really have much interest in hearing from. But I also don’t necessarily […]
I feel pretty darn fortunate to live in Colorado. Unfortunately, a lot of recent transplants to the state feel the same. As the fastest growing state in terms of population, our communities are bursting at the seams as more and more housing goes up to meet an ever-pressing need. And yet still the demand for […]
Quincy Jones Is One Bad Mammajamma I love characters. Having come in contact with so many different personalities over the course of my years in education, I have a distinct predilection for people who are truly unique, the type of people that wear their personas right on their coat sleeves and don’t give a rat’s […]
Might Elon Musk Save Us All? My son is only eleven, but he already knows what car he wants when he turns sixteen: a Tesla convertible. Yeah right, kid- good luck with that one. Still, I have to sit back and appreciate his reasoning. You see, Elon Musk is something of a hero to him. […]
