Dispose of Properly
Written by rclloyd in Saturday, March 13th 2010   

Enjoying the many trails throughout both the city and county of Boulder it’s refreshing (both literally and figuratively) to see that a number of dog owners are taking the time to clean up after their pet. However, there is only one slight set-back. Extreme budget cuts, due to the current depths of the recession, have [...]

Roll The Stone Back In Front Of The Tomb
Written by rclloyd in Saturday, March 6th 2010   

In denying a gay couple’s child entry to Sacred Heart of Jesus School the Archdiocese of Denver must also be considering a total rewrite of that children’s hymn. Henceforth it will no longer be sung “Jesus loves me this I know for the Bible tells me so…” but modified to “Jesus loves me, ‘as long [...]

Support Is Give and Take
Written by rclloyd in Tuesday, March 2nd 2010   

Mark my words.
Why the unrest with incumbent politicians? Democratic and Republican politicians call on us to come through for them all the time. They have expected us to display bumper stickers, lawn signs and banners, attend the rallies, work the phone banks, support the party and its candidates, be a poll watcher, and the big [...]

Who Is She Kidding?
Written by rclloyd in Monday, March 1st 2010   

Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, was asked to self grade her past year (2009) holding that office. None too surprising she awarded herself an “A”. Had MS Pelosi sought outside assessment of her performance to date by the American populace…It is doubtful that she would have received a grade. Unfortunately, there isn’t a grade [...]

Saying Goodbye
Written by rclloyd in Friday, February 26th 2010   

When I first brought my golden Pomeranian, Mitch, home from the Boulder Humane Society in the late summer of 1999 I explained to him that he had some big shoes to fill from his predecessor. I realized in fairly short order that the shoes he inherited were “baby” shoes and my beloved Mitch left our [...]

Revisit The Diagnosis
Written by rclloyd in Thursday, February 25th 2010   

A recent headline in the local newspaper indicated:
“Ex-VP Dick Cheney sustained a ‘mild’ heart attack”
For those believing that the former Vice President was lacking that organ…Would it be possible that what Mr. Cheney really suffered was an acute case of gastrointestinal disruption caused by the endless stream of fecal material that emanates from his facial [...]

Still Seeking The “Change”
Written by rclloyd in Saturday, February 13th 2010   

With the Party of “no” (Republicans) and the rudderless Democratic leadership of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid…There leaves minimal reason for doubting why nothing is currently being accomplished in Washington. Meanwhile the populace (aka voters) of the Republic continues to suffer with high unemployment, a ballooning national debt, [...]

Call The Morgue
Written by rclloyd in Saturday, February 6th 2010   

Any number of drugs currently in the marketplace are being promoted with (paraphrased) “Please seek the advice of your physician before taking–insert drug name–”. Unfortunately, there are millions of uninsured Americans that don’t have the luxury of ever seeing a physician thanks to the recalcitrant party of “no”–AKA Republicans and the party of “indecisive”–AKA Democrats.

Change To Believe In
Written by rclloyd in Saturday, January 30th 2010   

Healthcare reform? No. High unemployment? No. Skyrocketing deficit? No. Inflation? No. Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan? No. Wall Street and/or banking bonuses? No. But finally a YES…The Obama Administration and Utah Senator Orrin Hatch (R) are pushing the Justice Department to review the legality of the controversial college football Bowl Championship Series (BCS) selection process.
