I always wanted my name painted on the office door.
A while back I commented on a story by Katy Zillmer concerning the Maplewood City Council and the Sherrie Le lawsuit. I noted what I consider to be pretty crafty bit of innuendo in the way Zillmer left out a relevant portion of the credentials of a lawyer the city had hired. Inspired by a related [...]
Wonderful news! His patience and dilligence has paid of in a very nice promotion and a greatly improved schedule. Huzzah! I guess they didn’t do that background check. :)
As much as I post about Maplewood, MN, I don’t live there. I just got caught up in the interesting whirlwind of local politics and personalities. I live nearby on Saint Paul’s luxurious East Side. Today, the oft-berated East Side Review landed on my step. And I congratulate them on a really nice set of [...]
And here’s tonight’s class. Finishing up on genitives and getting ready for datives. More diagramming, too.
I don’t know how it happened, but the audio for class 6 just appeared. And so here it is! It was a good class with a nice overview syntactical categories of genitives, and an intro to the diagramming we’ll be using for sentences.

Powerline, a locally-written conservative blog with a national readership, [...]
First the bad news: The iPod didn’t record this time. I don’t know why. It said it was, but it never counted up. I’ll have to babysit it next time. Too bad, too. It was a really interesting class on genitives. Now the good news: Bethlehem Baptist said yes to us using a room! Starting this [...]
She was the cat I got for my 21st birthday. She was 18 years old, and lived well. In the days of my irresponsible youth, she wandered the woods of Burnsville, mothering countless kittens. Later, having lived and loved hard, she was content to be indoors. Death is death, but it was about the best [...]
savemaplewood.com, though biased, is the go-to place for Maplewood new items concerning the contentious situation surrounding the Maplewood City Council and city administration. Of course, I’m the go-to guy if you want to add in a little fairness to the mix. :) A bit ago, they posted KSTP-TVs response to Maplewood City Council member Erik Hjelle’s [...]
