EdVenture or Misadventure?There’s an absolutely astounding update now at the end!
That is what we’re trying to figure out here at home. For those that haven’t been around for very long Ben and I were artists in residence the last two Saturdays of September at the largest children’s museum in South Carolina. You can [...]

Hello? Is this Thing On?
I do realize the accompanying picture isn’t that interesting but it is a remnant and a reminder of the last time I spoke to God. After packing up the booth, loading my gear into the van, and grabbing a bite to eat (and one last perfect Bloody Mary) I [...]

Fed Up With Blogger
If any of you blogging buddies knows of a better blog host AND a way to migrate our historical past here to another host, we’d sure appreciate it! Either leave it in the comment area or better yet, e-mail me at benwaddell@bellsouth.net. I finally got to my own blog this [...]

Achin’ & Bakin’ in Macon
Given that this is just year number three of the Soulshiner’s World Tour of Art and Carnie Living (read still wet behind the ear at this career) I’m going to make some wrong choices of shows to do. I definitely had my share last season. When you participate in [...]

Down and Dirty
Interestingly I see backlash coming from where I didn’t expect it. Here is Steve’s opinion and Connie’s opinion about last night’s interview. If you don’t make the connection they are a couple. Steve is blind but has overcome that obstacle and is currently a professor at THE Ohio State University. I think you [...]

Now I’m REALLY Getting Pissed Off!
It seems our blog is now being bombarded by the “disability rights” propagandistas. Evidently if you disagree with their stance in regards to The Ashley Treatment they want to reeducate you. Perhaps I should’ve said “disability rights” Nazis?
If you read through the comments you’ll discover several bloggers make reference or [...]

The Firestorm Continues
As one of Ben’s parents I am shocked and angry at the many responses to The Ashley Treatment. The responses are for the most part uneducated and imbecile.

More on The Ashley Treatment
I’ve found more discourse about this topic than I really expected. I’ve also discovered another wonderful blog taking a deeper look into the issue. I welcome those that venture here from Doctor Anonymous!

Angry!Joan said I talked in my sleep all night last night. She said I actually yelled a few times. I’m not surprised. Few things anger me more than caring parents of a special child having their ethics questioned. Add to the fact that it is a supposed lawyer who loves the limelight despite that she [...]

CNN Sucks!!!
I am livid. So much so that I may not make sense this evening. It is well known the Nancy Grace is a charlatan in regards to accepting the title “reporter.” Tonight CNN went too far. Nancy “The Hick” Grace crucified a family for having procedures done on their special child. In her defense [...]
