On Alcohol Is Nature's Alarm Clock
And this is why I've gone to the gym for 15 years at 6:00 a.m. I call it "making sure I stay fit" rather than "acknowledging I might have a drink problem."

On Osama Bin Laden Was A Millwall Supporter
I'm not so sure about this. His strong finish, subsequent disappearance, and inability to finish on top clearly marks him a fan of Arsenal's style.

On Politician Sorry About Calling Voters "Donkey-Botherers"
Funny enough, Blackburn, his name AND team (how handy!) is likely to be relegated at the end of the season alongside Blackpool. He's likely to be similarly relegated back to the private sector.

On The Selling of Wisconsin: Enter Koch Brothers' Bag Man Jeffrey Schoepke
Okay, I'll be that guy.
What's the problem here, really? I'm a private sector employer with a defined contribution "pension," who offers the same to his employees, a shitty healthcare plan we can barely afford, and, as a managing partner, an 80 hour workweek during easy times. Please explain to me how we as a society can accommodate this Wisconsin plan regarding public employee pensions and health care plans. Here in West Virginia we have a large dying population and an inability to cover Soc Sec obligations. We're fucked, basically. So I think what I'm trying to say is that maybe we should as adults stop poo-pooing this Wisconsin GOP thing and actually start talking about how were're going to honor the promises made to the Boomers without bankrupting our local and state governments.
If there's a solution I'm all for hearing it out, but as an employer, I really can't make it work for my own excellent workers.

On A Brief Christmas Memory
I probably shouldn't talk about doing the same thing with the Queensryche live box set when I was 13 something. I felt so satisfied and dirty and awesome all at once.
Then my grandma taught me how to make cornbread without worrying one sec about all the cigarette ash and bourbon spray she added to the recipe.

On Gordon Likes to Think He is the Most Underrated of All Mythical Heroes
Yup, except switch out Ecstasy for LSD. I've hardly had a day without a knee-buckling panic attack since.
(Not to suggest for a second that this is comparable to schizophrenia.)

On I've Become an Amazing Mom in the Six Hours I've Been Sober
@SidAndFinancy One of the most terrifying things my mother ever said to me was "Me being drunk is what got you here; it's probably bad luck for me to stop now."
