http://lametexpatriot.blogspot.com/2010/11/one-fine-day.html
Musings of a wandering mind from the displaced Republic of One. Tuesday, November 16, 2010. I am having a good day. This morning I woke up early, and attended a presentation at the National Democracy Insititute. A major player in international political development/ democracy promotion. They were recapping the November 7 elections in authoritarian Burma, but more than that, they were demonstrating a new project/ platform. We were interrupted, briefly, by Ian Schuler. Capturing the gist of his article, an...

Musings of a wandering mind from the displaced Republic of One. Friday, October 23, 2009. You Might Have Won $0.00: Wedding Progress is a Zero-Sum Game. So wedding chat it is. As I mentioned quite some time ago. Shelley has already finished most of the wedding planning. In fact, she's been done for 2 months. I, on the other hand, have languished in my few responsibilities, sometimes for reasons of personal negligence, and other times through disastrous conditions beyond my full control. Stuffing station ...

Musings of a wandering mind from the displaced Republic of One. Thursday, September 18, 2008. What's in a Name? So here it is, after weeks of promises, and only 4 months after starting my first blog; the debut of my second. The reasons for this new blog are simple. 1) The premise of the old blog became obsolete. 2) I wanted to keep doing it. Grad schoolin' pays off already with these $30,000 words. So what the hell is a Lame Texpatriot? Thanks Pace). As to the first, I started thinking of myself, gru...

Musings of a wandering mind from the displaced Republic of One. Wednesday, December 1, 2010. Beethoven Turkey Cinema: The Unlikely 2010 Thanksgiving of Ryan and Shelley. Dont mis-read; thanks to cable TV, the internet, etc. they are all very much members of the 21st century, and most no longer live and work on farms and ranches. But many grew up in those environs, and many more stayed close, or even returned to them, after time in San Antonio, Houston, or NYC. Example #1 - In Oklahoma, my father, an oil ...

In the lead up to Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert's Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear in Washington DC on October 30, it seems the major media talking points were:. What secret political message would Jon Stewart insert into his supposedly 'apolitical' event? What impact would he have on the upcoming Midterm elections? The special guest line up was not only balanced, it w...

I really would like to be in a village though so I might move after a month. It depends on how things go. More later. Tuesday, July 29, 2008.
