It's tough to be a man.  Not that women have it easier than men, but that the natural tendencies of men tend to bring out contradictions between intentions and results.  For example: a wife comes to her husband in tears about how someone at the office has been treating her, and the husband, wan...

Last night we had family game night and played the game of LIFE.  While not going into all the details of the game itself, there are at least two points in the game where a fork in the road appears.  Go one way, and one thing will happen.  Go another way, and another thing will happen.  What wi...

Dear Gov. Robert Bentley,

If asked to name your favorite sports team, do NOT follow the lead of this Republican governor.

Politico reports on this comment from Chris Christie: "My favorite football team is not the New York Giants. It’s not the New York Jets. And it’s not the Philadelphia Eagles. No, get ready now. My favorite football team are the Dallas Cowboys.”

Did we mention Christie is the governor of New Jersey. That would be like the governor of Alabama saying his favorite team was Notre Dame.
