Anybody can submit stories/photos/etc and a few will get picked for publication. So while you probably won’t get any hard hitting news on this channel, you’ll [...]
Hi. Remember me? Probably not, but that’s okay. It’s been nearly 18 months since my last contribution here at The Donk. For that, I apologize to you — the reader — and even moreso to our benevolent host, Mister Gardner. Since my last post, I have gone from being a stay-at-home-dad/pajama-clad-political-blogger to being amongst the [...]
As Kathy Kattenburg of Moderate Voice said earlier, this transcends politics. Here’s the info… She is a University of Washington undergrad and she has been missing since Saturday afternoon, when she left the Rainier Beach neighborhood headed to the UW Seattle campus.

Between work and other projects (film and multimedia), my time has been completely consumed. My apologies if it seemed like I don’t care about the [...]
First he told Jeffrey Goldberg that he was wrong when he told Russia to bomb us during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Now he’s saying that the entire Cuban model is flawed? From The Atlantic… But during the generally lighthearted conversation (we had just spent three hours talking about Iran and the Middle East), I asked [...]

Solomon Kleinsmith, who is a contributor here from time to time and just started a great new site The Rise Of The Center, has put together a list of indy/centrist/moderate blogs you should check out. Here’s a taste: The Pragmatic Center – Nick Goebel, who I’ve chatted with a bit, has his head on straight. [...]
