Local elections are coming up, and I am not going have a repeat of what has happened in the past: Supporters of various candidates get together to dump criticism on other candidates. That’s fine as long as they don’t do it behind a cloak an anonymity. Now, I [...]

I annoyed some people with a line at the bottom of this post, which noted that a member of the Peoria Chiefs who tossed a baseball an oposing player and instead hit a fan could get 16 years in prison. The line I added was:

Some members of my blogroll object to the category in which I have placed them. Specifically, I started a category called “Mommy bloggers.”
Anyone who reads a lot of blogs knows there are bloggers who have a lot of post about their kids and they funny, sad, happy, etc. things their children so and say. That [...]

Do not, under any circumstances, try to flood my site with anonymous negative comments about anyone, including politicians. This includes politicians I criticize.
