Requests for emergency food are up nearly 40%, so the Second Harvest Food Bank could really use your support...

The first of the Columbia mosque arsonists has been sentenced. (The details of this remind me of our discussion about racist graffiti the other day. It doesn't matter if these knuckleheads have official affiliations with white supremacist groups; they clearly look to these groups for inspiration.)...

Little Richard is recovering at Vanderbilt from hip surgery. In his honor, let's all run around singing the raunchier version of "Tutti Frutti" today...

Mumpower and Williams have an email pissing match... The Titans beat the Texans...

The Saturn plant closes tomorrow. I know the economics between the South and the Midwest are different, but I have to tell you, news of this sort takes me back to my childhood and just chills me to the bone. It's no good, Pith readers. It's very hard for communities to recover from stuff like this. Our thoughts are with the folks in Spring Hill...

Hmm, that is weird. I know I saw Jeff Woods at the Gaylord/Metro City Council orgy this morning...
Ooooo. Maybe that's why we haven't said anything about it. Oops.

Isn't the term "white supremacist" redundant?
After WWII, terms like supremacist and racist simply became code words that mean whitey.
