The girl’s name Chloe is of Greek origin and means “blooming”.

Her liquid green eyes focus on my sleeping face as her velvet black paws pat away, demanding my attention before other living things see sunlight. She purrs happily while I transfer into my wheelchair.

Healthcare Rant

I give the finger to the radio in the car, as I swear vehemently and cathartically. I rage in frustration at CNN and I craft unassailable and witty responses to newspaper and magazine articles. My eyes roll when I hear people expounding thinly thought out opinions. I sigh with grief and sadness at the depth to which our national conversation on healthcare so sorely and expensively misses the point, and how much disability issues have to do with the whole grand mess.

What Is Happening to PBS?

I am not a usual reader of the "Wall Street Journal"; it's just too conservative for me. But last week, I encountered an excellent article by arts critic Terry Teachout. Mr. Teachout brought up a topic that has been on my mind for quite a while, but I never thought that anyone else would voice my thoughts in such a well-written article. The subject of the article was what Mr. Teachout feels is the decline of PBS.
