Loretta Lynn and The Van Lear Rose

Thank God that Loretta Lynn met Jack White and not Jack Black. Imagine "The School of Hillbilly Blues." Anyway, Loretta Lynn's recent album produced by Jack White is one of the best I've heard in some time. My son loves it (he is 2.5), my wife loves it (she's 34), and my buddy Theobilly likes it (he drinks single malt scotch). Download it, buy it @ Target, or do whatever you do, but for God's sake, listen to it.

Republican Jesus

I don't know where this is from but it seems accurate to me. My Republican friends will protest this as a vast overstatement. Too bad for you.

Theobilly's Blog "a Good Thing"

I started this blog because I tried to comment on one of my friend Theobilly's posts, and I ended up in a blog creation wonderland. I orginally intended that this blog would be a joke. My ill conceived plan was that when Theobilly would post something on his blog, I would respond with some form of absurdity. Yet, Theobilly is doing the world a service by posting his blog, and I should be supportive of his efforts. So, from now on I'll take my blog more seriously. I'll still point out when Episcopalians make the news, but I'll be more supportive of my friend Theobilly.
