• Lefty Journalist: Responsible Journalists Should Repress Dissent

  One thing for which I've always envied liberals (I mean besides the guilt-free drug habits) is that their fundamental message is "government knows best." It doesn't get much more simplistically appealing than that.
  
  I keed... I keed. Or rather I parody. Because failed media-critic Brian Lambert has [...]

• A Quest!

  Saddle up the coconuts! Brush up on the air speed velocity of swallows (laden and unladen, African and European)! And do not forget your favorite color! A quest is imminent!
  
  

  
  An Italian archaeologist, Alfredo Barbagallo, claims that the legendary Holy Grail is hidden in the catacombs under [...]

• Republican Support For Amnesty Bill: Mystery Solved?

  Slublog thinks he might have identified the reason so many Republican politicians seem willing to defy their own base and support the current unlikable, unworkable, and apparently undead immigration bill.
  
  Seems a little convenient for me. I mean... didn't they already explain? It's fear of all those people [...]

• State of the Race: Republican 2008 Primary

  One of the enjoyable things about looking at a presidential primary this far ahead of the event itself is that emotions are a wee bit less heated. Few people (there are exceptions) have wedded themselves passionately to any single candidate yet. Save for political geeks, most still aren't even [...]

• Buzz.mn - Snooty Urban-Centric Exclusionists

  I'm on record as a fan of James Lileks' new gig as the Supreme-Poobah / Master of His Domain at Buzz.mn. However, despite my initial enthusiasm, I have discovered a fly - nay - a nasty-looking, angry horsefly in the ointment. Buzz.mn's idea of "community" apparently ends at [...]

• More Muslim Than The Pope

  Far be it from me to lecture others regarding the best manner in which to live out the Christian faith. I can duke it out on obscure matters of theology at length. But when it comes down to more basic things like getting my sorry butt out of bed and [...]

• Introducing Paul Potts

  Alright it's made the rounds all over the place already. But I keep going back to watch, so I may as well post it here. Just amazing.
  
  
  
  I don't know what the secret is to what makes this so compelling. But considering the play it's getting [...]

• Another Year Older

  Special message to my dedicated readers. Both of you.
  
  Do not panic. I'm not flaking out and taking another summer break from blogging. Nor has the evil Registerfly service barfed all over my domain to silence me again.
  
  It just happens to be my birthday. And since [...]

• Tear Down This Wall

  Nothing original today. But I do remember this moment. Like most others I remember it a lot more vividly because of the night it came true a couple of years later.
  
  
  
  Funny. He doesn't look like Fred Thompson to me. And yet people keep insisting they see [...]

• Letter To Wendy's

  To Whom It May Concern,
  
  The recent addition to your "value menu," of a "Buffalo Crispy Chicken" sandwich was a pleasant surprise. However after trying said sandwich today I wish to register a complaint.
  
  When I returned to my office cubicle for lunch today, anticipating the [...]
