The Powershifter Proposal

I’ll be Ustreaming a lecture on bicycles and women’s liberation this Sunday, 2pm at the Florence Public Library. The speaker is Dr. Tom Osborne, Professor of History at the University of North Alabama, Episcopal Deacon, and my dad. Hope everyone … Continue reading
Programming Note
The Alabama Senate is supposed to begin debate on the transvaginal ultrasound bill as early as tomorrow, so I will be on the road to begin the Goat Hill Project for 2012. This may or may not mean a dearth … Continue reading

New C & L Post Up
My latest Crooks and Liars post, Alabama Legislator: “Empty the Clip” on Illiegal Immigration is up. Please read, enjoy, and share often!

As you’ve probably noticed, this website is going through some changes. Much of this is in anticipation of ramped-up activity in the new year, especially the 2011 Goat Hill Project. Covering the Alabama legislature in this historic session will require … Continue reading
Pardon The Progressiveness
I’ve changed from a Pisces to an Aquarian, not that it ever made a difference to me. By now, you’ll have noticed this website is a construction zone; I am taking the day off blogging to try and finish things … Continue reading
