An old friend of mine recently read my blog and was pleased to see that we agreed that iceberg lettuce and schools both suck the life out of people.  I loved his observation, and I especially love that we’d both come to these conclusions separately.  I’ve been thinking about my friend’s comment and I realized [...]

REVIEW: Wildlife World Zoo and Aquarium, Arizona

Located just west of Phoenix, right off of I-10 in the town of Litchfield Park, Arizona, is the Wildlife World Zoo & Aquarium.  My local unschooling group went there on Wednesday, March 25th and had a blast.  As homeschoolers in a group, we were given the same privileges as a school group.  This benefit is [...]

Vegans Eat More than Lettuce

Whenever I go to a conference, business luncheon, or the like, I inevitably have to explain what a vegan diet is (since I’m a vegan).  What’s particularly shocking is that my special ordered food usually has to be sent back to the kitchen a few times before it actually is vegan.  The people in charge [...]

Being a Macho Man

There are several U.S. commercials on television right now that are quite insulting to males.  They imply that men aren’t truly men unless they are meat eaters — and they imply that a man is more of  a man if he eats meat in extremely large quantities — daily, at each meal. Think this is [...]
