    Great photos, simple but deep commentary, all reveal the man. I enjoyed this blog very much, even though I'm one of those bad liberals. :-)

    Funny when I need it, serious when we all need it. This is a great blog from a man who knows. (He didn't pay me with a drink...yet).

    Lovely, lovely, lovely. Beautiful art, deep poetry and prose, food for which I want to dive into my screen. mmmm.

  • The Screaming Me-Me

    MeMe has some stories to tell about life in the desert and how it compares with life in corporate America. I look forward to hearing them all! I bet there are fewer snakes in the desert.

  • Phuck Politics

    Wednesday October 1st, 2008 at 03:11 | Rating: 5 | Report

    Phuck Politics is a Master of Satire, and probably of ceremonies too, but I haven't been invited to any of them. Elitist! He also channels Jesus. So, I encourage you, no I demand that you, add him to your RSS feed or subscribe to his email updates because DAMN! WE NEED TO KNOW THE SECRET PEARLY GATES CODE when the EOT occurs! And we need to butt in front of Sarah Palin in line. (For those of you who are heathen liberal devils, EOT means Extreme Ossification of the Taliban.)

  • Philadelphia Weather

    Friday December 21st, 2007 at 02:56 | Rating: 5 | Report

    Weather is cool! Weather is interesting! This blog is chock full o' info and links and somehow is so well designed that it's easy to navigate and pleasing to the eye. I don't even live in Philly anymore, but I am linking to this blog...perhaps for a little nostalgia, and to keep track of my brother and his family and whether or not they have been buried under mounds of snow or their house is sliding down a hill of ice. Handy, that.

  • To Iniquity, and Beyond: News from a lunatic-infested dirt c…

    Oh to be Tim Hollis. I'd have to have a sex change operation but I don't know if they even do that. One can have their manhood Ctrl-X'd, but I am not sure if one can have manhood Ctrl-V'd. I must research that in the Googles. Meanwhile, on a sad and solitary plane, I've been wandering, with chafed thighs and parched lips (don't go there), grumbling to myself about the deplorable state of the united states. I'm damn lucky to have landed finally in Paris, where the peasants have at least been known to rise up against the money-grubbing powdered-wig wearers. I still am damn depressed about my own country though, no matter how much cheap Cote du Rhone I throw down. But! Almost like magic, out of the deepest and darkest iniquity, popped up Tim Hollis. I lifted my besotted hand to click upon his website and holy shit 'n shinola, I have been momentarily revived. All this happy horseshit is to say that Tim is still in the fight. He hasn't given up (unlike moi). He will go down laughing, and bring all of us with him, grabbing our bellies and squinting our eyes, in sheer pleasure. Tim, in my untested opinion, is the king of political satire. And if you are, as he says, loving your country while hating the fucking government, you will be refreshed by his humor, and ready to get out of bed, actually shower, and put on something other than those fetid footy pajamas, and protest outside of your local government building. (Try and make it something more newsworthy than the department of motor vehicles, ok?). Please read this blog. Please sign up for his RSS feed. Please donate a dollar or niney-nine-fiftee. We need Tim Hollis to keep us all sane.

  • Foreigner by Default

    Saturday September 22nd, 2007 at 09:50 | Rating: 5 | Report

    Join The Foreigner, her Ultimate Other Half and their lovely Sir Sprout for an adventurous romp in Ireland. It's all very mysterious, since you know she's a foreigner - but from where? And her husband? Who knows. But Sir Sprout is a red head so ... just figure it out from there. I love The Foreigner's process as she has sudden flashes of understanding about such important terms as Paper View, gets a lecture from a lady friend that MEN SAY TITS, WOMEN SAY BOOBS (I must have missed that rule too), and argues with her husband who is as "patient as a camel." Not to be missed.

  • The Wishful Writer

    Friday August 31st, 2007 at 15:34 | Rating: 5 | Report

    So this girl Heather is someone I haven't met. But she is my pal, so my review is a bit one-sided. I get a sense about Heather - who she is and what she stands for - from her unabashed writing style. She's a camera for her home, her relationship, her neighborhood and the people that flow in and out of her life and most importantly, for herself. We get to see her tonsils and how she looks in her pajamas, but with that little extra Heatherish twistaroo. Her side woman, April, is lovingly and teasingly depicted. I assume April has infinite patience, and not just with the dog peeing into the floor vent. I look forward to Heather's blog posts every day and how she returns the compliment when she reads and comments on mine.

  • LifePrints - Good News for a More Compassionate World

    Friday August 31st, 2007 at 15:25 | Rating: 5 | Report

    I think Lisa writes carefully. Not in an uptight way, but in a clear and thoughtful way. She takes time to communicate deeply, and precisely. She lives her tag line "LifePrints." It's not a marketing slogan. It's the truth. She makes her mark with a conscious effort. Her blog is an oasis for me.

    This "southern-eastern rural(ized) tannish boy" can turn your world inside out. It's like learning a new language. All his photos make me sigh with pleasure. I don't know if it's the beach or the color or the light or the fur. And his art is wild and woolly.

  • Everyday France

    I was surfing BlogCatalog looking for compadres - American writers in France - and found you. I enjoyed reading your posts very very much. I mentioned you and linked to your site and your dog poop post in my blog today: http://omywordblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/paris-so-much-more-than-dog-poop.html. Enjoy!
