Because I NEVER Post

By -
Don't look so surprised that I am actually blogging, because I'm really not. I only find it necessary to type long multiple paragraphs of words when my life is on the line (or when it seems my life is on the line). I figured that since I never contribute to the writing I can at least contribute to the art. Some of you may know (unless your my father then it's still a surprise) that I write and illustrate a comic, and those of you who have broken out of your Facebookphobia have actually read it. But for those of you who have not I am now giving you the opportunity every week to read it. Please feel free to laugh, cry, yell, comment or just give suggestions. Eventually I will have a website up so it will be easier to share these with everyone.

Ahem. Your father knows all even if he never jumps on every bandwagon. I admire and applaud your efforts, dear daughter. May you be blessed to incite giggles, guffaws, twitters and aneuristic gales of laughter in complete and total strangers all across the world wide web. I, for one, am waiting for a significant death toll.

That is a cute comic. Just as a suggestion though you might consider leaving a link to a larger image of your comic. It is hard to read otherwise.

Hannah, it is supposed to open in a new window with the full-size version, but for some reason it isn't doing that and we haven't been able to figure out why.

So... um, so much for writing a new blog post once a week. I don't even remember how long it took for me to stop. I keep meaning to update, but then life happens and I don't get around to it. I probably have too many blogs that I try to keep up with in the first place. I update my teaching blog every day there is school. I update the million minutes blog a few times each month, and I thoroughly neglect the GreedCycle blog that Gretch and I started over a year ago. Anyway, Gretch and I have had a lot going on, but since we really don't  want our blog to be just medical updates, I haven't been writing about them. And since the day-to-day activities of our lives rarely seem to be "blog-worthy" (other than my teaching which, as already mentioned, is blogged about elsewhere), I end up not updating this blog as much as I probably should. Who knows, maybe I'll get back into the swing of things this year. New year, new chance to hold myself to a standard of u

Is Civil Discourse Too Much To Ask For?

As I am pretty certain everyone reading this blog knows, I am an active participant on several different blogs, many of them related to religion, politics, education, and social issues. In a recent blog post at By Common Consent, a Mormon blog, about immigration, a nugget was posted by a (to the best of my knowledge) drive-by commenter, ranting and raving about "illegals" ruining our nation. Here is the verbatim post: Do illegals pay social security? Millions of dollars are sent back to Mexico to their families. And their are jobs besides farm jobs that that citizens haven’t done because wages have been depressed by importing them at a cheaper rate. A condition of higher unemployment means that any race, Irish etal takes opportunities from those who first deserve them. Eventually, the citizen would take any job to survive if they hadn’t already been taken by then. If no citizen needed that job, then I wouldn’t care about that aspect of it. But their is a coverup of statistic

And This Is Life Eternal

Many of you know that I am a professional educator. I work in the Freeport School District as the Curriculum Coordinator for 21st Century Teaching and Learning. Whenever I have the opportunity to share this with others upon meeting them for the first time, one of the first questions I get is, “Is that your real hair?” Apparently, there are things people care about more than know what it means to coordinate the teaching and learning efforts of an entire century. (The answer, by the way, is yes, this is my real hair; no, I don’t dye it; yes, it really is this curly; and no, you cannot touch it to see if it is actually a wig.)  Once I am able to get the discussion about my amazing naturally curly hair out of the way, we get back to the question of what it is I actually do. My favourite way to describe my job is that I am a teacher of teachers and that my main responsibility is to get them to put away the worksheets and step away from the PowerPoint so that they can engage their student
