In an effort to add some discipline to my easily distracted mind, I am creating this blog to practice writing and photography on a somewhat regular basis. The title comes from a story about my Irish Grandfather. When I was a baby anytime my mother would ask him if he wanted to hold me, he would say "Does he still shit in his pants?" It sounds like something I would say about a baby and it makes me laugh every time I think about it. BTW, YOU CAN CLICK ON ANY PICTURE TO SEE IT FULL SIZE.

September 9 Douchebag Of The Week
This one shouldn't be a surprise to anyone, it's Joe Wilson, Congressman from South Carolina. The surprise might be why. I could care less that he yelled out "You lie" during the President's speech to Congress. He did belittle himself in the eyes of anyone watching that has a functioning brain and most of the Republicans demanded he apologize immediately after the speech. The rest probably lack the previously mentioned functioning brain. He is a douchebag in my eyes because like most politicians, he didn't stand by his own actions or convictions. If he truly believes Obama isn't telling us the truth, then he should back up his statement with proof. After apologizing, tell us how Mr. Obama is lying. Since he did not prove his statement then I have to assume Joe Wilson is a liar. The President flat out asked Congress to quit spreading lies and bring him ideas for real healthcare reform. And 'You Lie' is all Joe Wilson can offer, for that he is my douchebag of the week.

Did you hear how his opponent Rob Miller is completely banking on this? He's raised hundreds of thousands of dollars since the "You lie" comment.
