It happened to me once so I now type anything longer than a few sentences in Word and then copy and paste it. The downside to this is that hyperlinks I embed in the word document (sometimes about 30 of them in Sunday School) are not transferred over and the same is true for any formatting such as italics or bold type.

I’m betting on candidates voluntarily greatly limiting big money donations, founding or finding an internet-wide platform…[Read more]

Here’s a campaign funding idea. Campaign donations are allowed up to some ungodly high limit. But the government’s Handicapper General (a character borrowed from a Kurt Vonnegut novel) would handicap the election by making up the difference for the candidate receiving less money. If one candidate receives $22 million in donations but the other…[Read more]
