Music Monday – “Book flight December but I leave in May/Drugs are generic but still work the same/I get logins for Netflix from my cousin Greg/Thanks Greg!”

A “refugee crisis” is something far away and remote.  Kenya.  Bangladesh.  Syria. Foreign.  Easily ignored. But this.  This is something different. This is a child. A child whose death has given a face to the millions of other children and adults around the world who are fleeing natural disasters and famine and war. A child posed as […]

Bobby Jindal Campaign Announcement = All Kinds of Cringe

So there are about a gabzillion people running for the Republican presidential candidate nomination. What’s a latecomer to the race left to do to get people talking?
