When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Whiny

Posted on May 11, 2023 by Nathan

Got My Mind Set on Mindsets

Posted on October 12, 2022 by Nathan

Religious Order in the Court

Posted on June 26, 2022 by Nathan

I’m sure what we all really need right now is a middle-aged white man weighing in on the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade. But really, do any of my opinions matter in the grand scheme of things? I’ve seen … Continue reading →

The Second Most Dangerous Game

Posted on March 29, 2017 by Nathan

I would have to suspect that, in a land in which practically all animals can talk, humans killing and eating them would pretty much disappear. Perhaps strangely, however, there are a few mentions of human hunters in Oz. They’re most … Continue reading →

For Better or for War

Posted on February 17, 2016 by Nathan

One thing on which all the Republican presidential candidates seem to agree is that our military just isn’t big enough. You know, they could have fooled me, because I thought it was incredibly bloated already. Apparently we don’t have as … Continue reading →

Sunday in the Park with Guns

Posted on January 11, 2016 by Nathan

I’ve been wanting to write about some issues I’ve seen coming up frequently as of late, including guns and the armed occupation in Oregon, but I haven’t really been able to form coherent thoughts. I’m going to try anyway, though. … Continue reading →

Zapper Happy

Posted on September 25, 2013 by Nathan

Since I’ve been discussing ray guns in my last few posts and I haven’t done a video game post in a while, I thought guns used in video games might be an interesting topic. I’m sure anyone who grew up … Continue reading →
