A new day has dawned on our northern border. For the first time in our peaceful history, Canadians and returning Americans now need a passport to enter the United States. Supposedly, this will bring increased security for all Americans. I guess Washington...

This morning's paper contained an article on the City Department of Community Development's study of moving the "Downtown Festival Site" to Brown Square Park. I saw the Request for Proposals (RFP) for this project a while ago and it...

If you're one of those self-righteous white assholes who keep telling me that I am making a mistake if I do not raise my kids in the suburbs, *** YOU. I happen to be among the small minority of enlightened individuals who realize that you don't...
