Personality Type

Posted by: Kathy on: October 14, 2009

One thing I don’t like about Personality Tests, is that often the questions are “yes/no” and my answer is “maybe.” Then I have to choose an answer that doesn’t totally suit me. Another problem, is that there is a tendency to pigeon-hole oneself (or others) into a set personality, and then treat them like you [...]

ARGH!! You don’t *need* a MoonBounce!

Posted by: Kathy on: October 13, 2009

Yes, another rant about the people on the local cheapcycle/freecycle networks! Grrrr….
Someone just posted that her kids’ birthdays are in early December, and she’s going to have a birthday party at her church and “really really needs” a MoonBounce and would like to borrow one, since she would be charged $150 to rent one for [...]

Race, shmace — we’re all the same!

Posted by: Kathy on: September 26, 2009

Back before Darwin, the term “race” used to mean people of a different country — for example, the English race versus the French race. Then with the popularization of evolution, and specifically the racist tome Descent of Man, there was the idea that man evolved from animals (specifically, the apes), and that some people (those [...]

Another reason to promote abstinence

Posted by: Kathy on: September 25, 2009

The launch of the so-called “Sex Degrees of Separation” (of course the title comes from “six degrees of separation” — the idea that every human is connected to every other human on the planet in six people or less — for instance, I shook hands with Magic Johnson when I was a child, so that [...]

Hate Speech

Posted by: Kathy on: August 20, 2009

Ok, if a preacher says that homosexual behavior is wrong, even though God says it several times in the Bible, both in the Old and New Testaments, that’s “hate speech,” because it might incite someone to go do something bad to a homosexual. But this guy can say, “We need to exterminate white people,” and [...]

What a doll!

Posted by: Kathy on: July 19, 2009

An apple doll. Which I’ve never heard of before today. I found her at a yard sale — paid all of 25 cents for her — and spent the afternoon trying to figure out what she was. By looking through pictures on the internet, I found a doll blog, and wouldn’t you know it, she [...]

Making do with a small space

Posted by: Kathy on: July 3, 2009

This is in response to a blog post I read, but my reply was too long to leave as a comment, so I’m putting it here and linking to it.
When I first read your post, I didn’t think I had anything to offer — my husband and I lived in >900 sq. ft. when we [...]

Gotta love it!

Posted by: Kathy on: April 18, 2009

I don’t know if it’s just that Mississippi women are so strong, so smart, or just so plain hard-headed… but you’ve got to read this story of a woman whose husband shot her in the head, and she survived (very likely with little or no lasting effects)!
