Last Sunday’s feature, Rightful Indignation and Facebook Need to Meet, put a spotlight on some particularly vile bullshit that was being permitted to exist and circulate all too freely on facebook. I asked for the support of all loyal LFM readers who were users of facebook in targeting the offenders through complaints to the website’s […]

WARNING: This article contains graphic and disturbing images of animal abuse that SHOULD make you angry. Please keep reading. We live in a shrill world wherein people burn themselves out attacking others over the holding of beliefs and the expression of personal philosophies that they should really have the good manners to stay the hell […]
Bitey | March 30, 2013
I’ve been hearing a lot of bullshit about hugging Dogs lately. Digging around, I turned up this piece of crap that includes so much bad advice for clueless people that I don’t know who to bite first. There’s this: April 10th is a day dedicated to something you probably do multiple times within every 24-hour […]

My dear and most honoured Friend Ryszard, Wherever you are, I hope this letter finds you well and in good spirits. As always, and without further delay, let me express to you my undying gratitude for everything good that is in my life, as personified by Diana. When last we spoke, damn but it’s hard […]

Sixteen weeks as of yesterday, and the SFM is ticking along like a little but fast growing clock. As I meditate on life with whoever has the honour of bestowing the treasured Title of Mother on Mrs. LFM, and Father upon me, I’m honing my repertoire of musical talents against the day when they will […]

A fire breaks out in your kitchen. You have and are permitted to own a fire extinguisher that is more than adequate to stop the blaze, but prohibited from using it in favour of running away to let the Fire Department handle the situation. An hour later, your house is rubble, and both your wheel […]

Last year I published a poem here in celebration of Mrs. LFM’s birthday. Today we celebrate another, and if you’ve read what I put here yesterday, you’ll know this to be an unusually special one. Today as a blizzard swirls around us, I’m building on the foundation of last year with two more verses dedicated […]

Tomorrow marks the anniversary of an event for which I will be forever thankful to the Universe – the birth of my Beloved Diana, half a world away in Poland. Nearly a year ago, I commemorated her birthday with a poem. One of many she’s inspired, and will come to inspire. Yet this year of […]
