Watching the Presiden’t speech last night, I realized something:
There’s an evil organization out there, about which we know too little. They keep their headquarters in a remote mountain fastness, where they run diabolical and advanced training camps, and they are agile. They’re ruthless, and they follow an ideology of destruction. And they […]

From Reuters:
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A divided U.S. Supreme Court declared on Monday it was unconstitutional to post framed copies of the Ten Commandments in county courthouses but permissible to have a commandments monument on the grounds of a state Capitol.
The two 5-4 rulings on the politically charged issue involving Ten Commandments displays on government […]

INT. SUBURBAN DEN - EVENING
[A morose TEEN sits on the carpet, staring towards the window. Next to him we see a newspaper. His DAD, wearing a cardigan and smoking a pipe, enters the room.]
DAD: Hey, sport, what’s the matter?
TEEN: Aw, it’s just the news, Dad. Everybody’s saying that the war […]

As you probably know, I’m obligated to occasionally post things that really can’t be of much interest to anyone but my friends and family. Things about my life, my tastes, my friends.

Terri Schiavo’s autopsy results are in. There was no evidence of the abuse, broken bones, and strangulation that Michael Schiavo was roundly accused of, and Terri’s condition was exhaustively verified as irreversible. Her brain was half the weight of a normal human’s, she was blind, and she would not have been able to […]

Yes, I know - the color-coded system is being phased out. But I like to kick it old-school on occasion, keepin’ it surreal. That’s how I roll. On da Ridge tip, yo.

Some of you might be thinking of getting a virulent stomach bug. Some of you might have heard through channels that I myself contracted a virulent […]

From The New York Times:
A White House official who once led the oil industry’s fight against limits on greenhouse gases has repeatedly edited government climate reports in ways that play down links between such emissions and global warming, according to internal documents.
In handwritten notes on drafts of several reports issued in 2002 and 2003, […]
