By

Cassie’s cute kid videos remind me of a random act of kindness I heard about a few weeks ago via the internet. A four-year-old girl who was heartbroken over the death of her dog wrote the following letter (with help from her mom): “Dear God, Will you please take care of my dog? She died…

Let’s start of the post with some fun clips of the Day-long Arts Retreat on August 23rd, 2008:
A Dramatic Experiment
By
Emily Herzlin
This past Saturday the ID Project had its first ever day-long arts retreat. It was an event that I had been looking forward to for a while, so much so that I put off taking my assistant teacher certification exam until the next test date in October so that I wouldn’t miss the retreat. How’s…

In 1996, when I was nineteen, Parliament-Funkadelic landed the mothership on the mall of the university campus where I lived, just outside of Washington, DC.

ARE WE ALWAYS MAKING BABIES? My Take On Interdependence. Saturday Guest Blog by Imprfectionist Not long ago, a friend of mine, a former girlfriend, sent me a birth announcement.

Is buying organic worth the extra $$?
By

This summer I resolved to save a little money by cooking meals at home instead of going out all the time. Breakfast was easy: Cheerios, soymilk, banana, done. But when it came time to shop for meals at the grocery store — and not just the frozen dinner kind — I was hit with a…
Is Blogging “Real” Writing?
By
Stillman Brown
Stillman Brown is furrowing his brow in a literary manner. Candorville, a webcomic by Darrin Bell, says it perfectly. Have you followed the link? Honestly and truly? Good. In college I decided to be a writer, to just go for it, balls to the wall (sounds painful, whatever it means), and put all my energy…
