My rage-o-meter reading is officially on imminent meltdown:
Well, there is a lot of fat to cut from our public schools, especially those in our biggest urban areas like Houston and Dallas. I am concerned that some the highly diverse Magnet public schools in this city are becoming hotbeds for liberalism. Do we really need free school bus service,...

If I turn into a lobotomized Jesus freak who gives up my career for our marriage and then starts blogging about this kind of insufferable bullshit, you have my permission to smother me with a pillow like McMurphy at the end of “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.”
AKA one of my college roommates, now apparently liveblogging her pregnancy and search for the perfect IKEA nursery rug....

This is one of my favorite things about the national team. There’s always more to do when it comes to diversity, but this is pretty great.

Yeah, looks like at least part of that is happening. Cue all the soccer fans who never pay attention to WPS deciding to throw their two cents in. Ugh. I really want WPS to survive, if for no other reason than to shut those people (not just dudes) up. (And yes,...
