Of all the things I mourn, the death of constructed logic and the rational argument is one that I mourn the most. These are very basic skills that I feel have been lost to swells of people in our society. People seem to have abandoned any kind of logic for their thoughts and arguments. Now people say anything they want, and the worst part isn't ( Read more... ) -
They'd think he was gay
I looked up the recipients of the Ruth Mott Foundation grant and found the grant proposal they accepted that I co-authored with my team at U of M when I was in their Public Health program for a semester. It was nice to see the evidence for myself that it had been funded and implemented. It actually got $164,280! How cool! I think it's a great ( Read more... ) -

My entire apartment is infested with mold. It's on everything, including all of my jackets. In particular, my peacoat is completed ruined, the sleeves are damp and filled with white mold.

I'll be spending it cultivating ( Read more... ) -
Never never never
I was hanging out with my best friend Lee and his brothers and they got around to talking about how their sister Kara, now a 10th grader at our old high school, had told them about some crazy high school stories. Included in these were two--the first about two boys who were caught either giving each other blow jobs in the bathroom or straight up ( Read more... ) -
Turn an ear
Driving back home from a long day talking about HPV vaccine to physicians, I managed to catch a great "Fresh Air" program on NPR concerning the history of the US military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" (DADT) policy as discussed by Nathaniel Frank, author of Unfriendly Fire: How the Gay Ban Undermines the Military and Weakens America (I doculdn't fidn ( Read more... ) -

Did we really think things would ever be any different?
