• Shawn Johnson more mature than her coach

  Maybe the U.S. Gymnastics team coach Márta Károlyi could take a lesson on how to lose gracefully from the gymnasts themselves. Read More...

• Volleyball hasn’t come a long way, baby

  So. Like much of the world, I'm watching the Olympics. Women's Beach Volleyball is on. The wife refers to this event somewhat derisively. At first, I think that this is because of the fact that, you know, it's beach volleyball. How is this an Olympic event? Then, a couple of days later, I catch a glimpse of the Men's Volleyball. Which is played indoors. By a team of more than two players. Fully clothed. Read More...

• Oy vey, Miley showed her tuchas again

  I think we may be over-reacting just a tad to, like, everything Miley Ray Hannah Montana Stewart Cyrus does.

• DVD Review: Our Country, USA to Z

  With July 4th coming up in a couple of days, many of us are feeling patriotic. But in our current political climate, patriotism can be a highly charged topic. Personally, I think you should be able to love your country without buying into the ideology of a particular person or political party. More "celebrate what's great about America" and less "keep the immigrants out." "Our Country, USA to Z" (Team Baby Entertainment) is more the former than the latter. Narrated by Whoopi Goldberg in her usual slightly sleepy-voiced style, this is (mostly) politics-free patriotism. Read More...

• Dick Cheney whispering hush: Goodnight Bush

  "Goodnight Bush" is a new take on an old classic, but probably not something you'll be reading (and reading, and reading, and reading – what is it about "Goodnight Moon"?) to your kids at bedtime. According to the New York Times, the book was an unsolicited manuscript... Read More...

• The Human Element of War

  No matter what you think of the Iraq War (or any war for that matter) I think it's important to remember the human side of things. The soldiers aren't only fighters, they're people. Some of them are even parents. In her terrific Personal Essay titled "Return to the Home Front", Korinthia Klein tells us what it was like when her husband Ian came home from "over there." It's all worth reading, but here are a couple of highlights: Read More...

• Another girl that can kick my ass

  This is the second story from the New York Times about female weight lifting; someone over there must have a thing for it. Not that I'm knocking them. A good story is a good story. Cheryl Haworth made news years ago when she started weight lifting, capturing the country's attention with the phrase, "It's fun to be strong." At 5'9", she weighs... Read More...

• Mother of autistic boy is going to Olympics

  I love a good Olympics story. Maybe it's because I'm so out of shape myself. This tale, though, about a weight lifter mom with an autistic son, has enough in it to appeal to everybody. Read More...
