About the Author

Despite this post title, I only have good news. First that I don’t have any real bad news and second that I’m passing on a couple good jokes about bad news that I just came across:

Doctor: I have some bad news and some very bad news.
Patient: Well, might as well give me the bad news first.
Doctor: The lab called with your test results. They said you have 24 hours to live.
Patient: 24 HOURS! That’s terrible! WHAT could be WORSE? What’s the very bad news?
Doctor: I’ve been trying to reach you since yesterday.

Doctor: I have some bad news and some very bad news.
Patient: Well, I guess I’ll take the very bad news first.
Doctor: The very bad news is that you have cancer, and there’s nothing we can do to help you. The bad news is that you also have Alzheimer’s.
Patient: Well, at least I don’t have cancer.

I love creating things. I wish I could do it all day long. I made my first puppet video yesterday. I think it’s kinda funny. I get to justify making stuff like this because it’s also marketing, which is an effort to get book sales rolling enough that I can do whatever I want whenever I want, which means many more entertaining, inspiring creative endeavors.

Besides being pretty funny most of the time, I appreciate that these editorial cartoons represent both sides of the political spectrum more evenly than most media sources in our country.

I’m seriously concerned about politics in our country these days! It’s not so much that I don’t like nationalized health care and some other issues and trends – it’s the fact that NO ONE CAN TALK REASONABLY anymore!!

Thanks a LOT, Democrats. Thanks, Republicans. Thanks lobbyists, celebrities, protesters, and Glen Beck.

When I taught college writing, we’d do a little section on logical fallacies and now and then I’d find a good example of one being used in the news. Now that’s all I hear. Everyone has traded reason in for sloppy emotional rants. That will never resolve anything! Continue Reading »

I forgot to post a link to this video I made of my nieces and nephews at Bear Lake this summer. Don’t expect a masterpiece – it was shot pretty quickly because there was too much sailing and eating and talking to do and because the kids’ patience wouldn’t last forever. But the kids love it and it’ll be great as they grow older to look back and laugh at.

Read that on a friend’s facebook and laughed. So here ya go.
