A Modest Proposal for WV Budget Woes

Here's a novel idea to help Governor Manchin and legislative leaders address WV's budget challenges... Stop cutting taxes for dead millionaires! According to the WV Center for Budget and Policy , WV could generate $21 million per year if WV restored our estate tax to 2001 levels. ( PDF ) In 2001, West Virginia estates over  $675,000 ( after  deductions for  funeral  expenses  and  charitable  donations) were subject to the Estate Tax, but that tax is being phased out and in 2010 will be eliminated completely. According to the phase-out, in 2009 only those estates worth more than $3.5 million are subject to the estate tax. (Don't worry millionaires, if you can hold on for just a few more months until 2010, then your children's inheritance will escape the tax completely. Whew!) In the meantime, rather than having $21 million per year for things like early childhood programs, schools, health care, infrastructure, law enforcement, fire fighter pensions, etc., WV will have...

Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution Flash Mob at Marshall University

The long awaited "flash mob" episode of Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution aired on ABC last night. Courtesy of Hulu, here is the "flash mob" section including yours truly as one of the dancing chefs. (You can also see my picture on Jamie's wall later in the episode.) That's me serving my stir fry in the thumbnail, and there are a few shots of me getting my groove on and cooking with my fellow flash mob dancers. I'm on the right side of the Memorial Fountain opposite Jamie. Along with the other "chefs", we jump in about 1/3 through the song and start cooking. We literally cooked the dish during the 3 minute song. There's an interesting shot of my back side when my "sous chef" dancing partners are tying my apron on. You can also see me standing on the edge of the fountain at the end of the dance. It was a lot of fun and that was a very exciting week to be in Huntington with everyone focused on healthy eating and li...

On Love - A homily that punches you right in the gut.

In the Season 2 and Series finale of the incredible series Fleabag from the remarkable Phoebe Waller-Bridge the scene that I can't get out of my head is the homily on love by "Hot Priest" Andrew Scott. I really want to memorize this and share it at an open mic sometime. It's poetry. Homily on Love by "Hot Priest" in Series Finale of Fleabag Love is awful. It’s awful. It’s painful. It’s frightening. It makes you doubt yourself, judge yourself, distance yourself from the other people in your life. It makes you selfish. It makes you creepy, makes you obsessed with your hair, makes you cruel, makes you say and do things you never thought you would do. It’s all any of us want, and it’s hell when we get there. So no wonder it’s something we don’t want to do on our own. I was taught if we’re born with love then life is about choosing the right place to put it. People talk about that a lot, feeling right, when it feels right it’s easy. But I’m not...
