My blogfather Andy, the man who inspired me to give life to this blog, has finally retired from his tireless blogging crusade at the World Wide Rant. I would like to take a moment of silence, which you are probably already doing unless you’re reading this aloud.
You will be missed, Andy.
Note 1: The path was segmented into three different-colored legs so it would be easier to follow when it got convoluted. The proper order is: red, pink, then purple. Also, you can click on the map to see a larger version that’s probably easier to read.

THIS JUST IN: the teen pregnancy rate in the US has risen for the first time since the mid-nineties. Obviously, many of our nation’s well-meaning but misguided ‘abstinence-only’ sex ed programs aren’t working. On the other hand, many parents are hesitant to promote “safe sex” over “no sex,” fearing that it’ll actually teach kids to have even more “makin’ it” sessions after math class. But fear not, true believers! I have a solution: make all 12-year-olds watch David Cronenberg’s The Brood. (For those of you that aren’t familiar with the film, it’s pretty basically a documentary about what giving birth in Canada is like.)
Barring actual repeat screenings of the film, I think a few well-placed posters would also do the trick. I actually made a sample one to share with all of you:
I like doing my civic duty.
