The Price of Friendship

by | Mar 1, 2013 | Life and all That

I am, honestly, a pretty lousy friend. Not on purpose, I assure you; I’m just not good at it naturally. I didn’t get the socialization I needed when I was young, among other things, and so friendship is something I have to consciously think about doing right (vs....

Character, Right and Wrong

by | Feb 26, 2013 | Life and all That

A couple of days ago I got myself into a pointless kerfluffle by trying to point out a popular writer’s hypocrisy, and how she was constantly espousing rules and ideals that she would then turn around and claim exception to. A whole rash of people decided to twist my...

Inappropriate
