Q is for Questionable Content

In the comments to a blogpost back in September, Andrew Bechard suggested that I write more about race. He had all sorts of good reasons and particular examples. Here's the thing: I find conversations about race exhausting. It's not that I think they aren't important and necessary, or that I don't engage in the topic occasionally. It's merely that talking about race often becomes either incendiary...

Let The Right One In

Many months ago, DQ reader Carlos Anllo e-mailed and recommended "Let The Right One In", which he described as a "Swedish vampire movie." I headed over to Rotten Tomatoes and saw that it was highly regarded, with a 98% positive rating as well as its 8.2 average. Those were both exceptionally high, and I was looking forward to seeing the film. Six months passed. That happens a lot....

STAR PARKER COMMENTARY: Challenges For A Republican Renaissance

The conservative Republican commentator opines : "Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele and the New York Yankees can look back on a good week. Maybe Steele deserves extra credit. No one was writing obituaries a year ago for the Yankees as was the case for the Republican Party. Now we have a different picture. Borrowing from the words of Mark Twain, reports of the death of the Republican...

Sleeping alone

"I can't believe I'm going to go home and sleep in my bed alone," I shivered and he laughed. I wasn't actually asking him to spend the night with me, just stating the obvious. "I'm sleeping on the couch," he admitted. "And I have roommates." "Not fair," I sighed and shivered again. Throughout the ride home, dropping him off, heading back into the District, I...

If I was a Country called Malawi......

Statistics and Tertiary Education A guy called Mark Twain claimed that Benjamin Disraeli once said, “There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies and statistics”. With that in mind, I browsed through the education statistics documented by UNESCO. The statistics provide very elaborate information that I am sure countries use to determine public policy as well as public expenditure. For...

JELL-O Puddin' Poppers

I happened to be going through various posts from the past and I came along the Bill Cosby - Silverthroat post that I did way back in the first year of the blog. One of the comments left on that post wanted to know if I had the album where Cos talked to kids about drugs. It came at an ironic time as my wife and I recently listened to that album this past summer. Not to mention that the Cos has been...

Harper Collins has published a collection of children's book picks from over 100 actors, writers, artists, politicians, and activists. These are the books that made a difference to them, the books that changed their lives. I asked the employees at Book Soup for their favorite children's books, and these are the books we picked....some will be familiar, some have been forgotten and some are just crazy!...
