I'm boring, and I like to write. Perhaps the two are related.
+ more bio informationThere are any number of current coaches that one could argue is the best in the game. Coach K at Duke, Bobby Knight down at Texas Tech, Rick Pitino at Louisville, and Billy Donovan at Florida, to name a few, would all garner some consideration. But if we're talking about the best NCAA men's basketball coach of all time, there... More..
Let's be plain here. The press absolutely attempts to, at best, create some sort of story arc they can run with, and at worst, outright attempt to unduly influence the outcome by way of their coverage. This much is obvious.Just look at the coverage of the primaries and caucuses so far. A guy like Giuliani, who thus far has do... More..
It bothers me that so much attention is being paid to the physical attributes of the two Democratic front-runners for the 2008 presidential nomination. But that may simply be because neither of them has much of consequence to say.The question is "Will Americans vote for a black man or white woman?" Under the right circumstanc... More..
The word "blasphemy" means "speaking rudely about God or using God's name as a swear word." Therefore, the uproar over the Chocolate Jesus isn't an issue of blasphemy. I really hate it when people use words without even knowing what the words mean. Of course, Christians are always speaking about their faith without having any... More..

So the topic is whether children under the age of 13 should be seated separately in airplanes to prevent them from seeing violent movie images. This is a question so asinine that I have to wonder who thought it might possibly be a good idea.Let's look at how absurd this is from all the different angles.First of all, why are w... More..
I think we should approve of same-sex marriage, but I'm not naive enough to think it'll happen in my lifetime. When we have even the Democratic Party's candidates, who are supposed to be a little more left-leaning, making equivocating statements like, "I think gays should be allowed to have civil unions, but marriage should b...

God can only do what man decides it can do.Consider our holy books. The Bible, the Torah, the Koran. In these books, God isn't a supreme being, but clearly just another one of the cast of characters that inhabit these books. I'm not saying that God doesn't exist. I'm merely saying that, if you take our holy books as the defin... More..
Judging what makes a good bassist is somewhat different from judging what makes a good guitarist. Sure, matters of preference in terms of style when it comes to critiquing both, but the similarities end there.Having said that, what follows is one man's subjective opinion on who the five best bassists of all time are.My list w...
