My best friend in college (and the best man at my wedding) always used to love to ban things. We were never certain [...]
Whenever I hear some guy say that feminists don’t have a sense of humor, I want to punch that guy in the face.
What I mean is, I want to take a bunch of tiny razors and glue’em to a glove, kind of around the knuckle area, and put on this [...]
An audit of the Houston Police Department’s fingerprinting comparison unit revealed so many problems that investigators will be reviewing all violent crime cases for the past six years, officials said Tuesday.
Major problems in the Latent Prints Comparison Unit included significant deficiencies with staffing, a lack of proper supervisory review, [...]
I am a leftist -- an unabashed liberal, pinko, progressive, tree-hugging, union-loving, peace and love socialist. I am not ashamed of that and I make no apology for it. I just believe the left offers the most common-sense solutions to the problems that America and the [...] Leave it to Team Locke to use race in his attacks against his opponent. Locke loves playing both sides claiming to take the high road and not use divisive tactics and yet he uses divisive tactics and sleeps with those who use hate and race against their opponents. [...]
Because I love football, and in an effort to boost our declining traffic, we present Marlana Aref, a cheerleader for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. You have to love charities in Texas.

I love the Pedant-General. His (her?) visuals are the best.
His (her) answer to the Where's Waldo Mainstream Media:
Lastly and as a slight aside, why so little from the MSM? That one is easy. You need to have a decent analytical brain just to deal with [...]
Today, Jack Floyd writes about the demise of Reunion Arena and how it certainly won't be missed from an architectural standpoint.
She also nails a few other buildings,including Dallas City Hall, for being less than lovely.
She describes 1500 Marilla as "top-heavy, unfriendly, brooding."' [...]
Just in case the fact that he’s Rick Perry isn’t enough, how about the fact that he’s objectively anti-microbrewery?
Texas Gov. Rick Perry, running for re-election in 2010, just got the endorsement of the Wholesale Beer Distributors of Texas. Therefore, that makes Perry the enemy of craft beer lovers in [...]
And here’s the Chron story on the At Large #2 runoff, featuring Council Member Sue Lovell and Andrew Burks. Unlike Jones v. Christie, my opinion that CM Lovell will retain her seat is much more common. Burks does have a base of support in the African-American community, where [...]
