Podcasting!
I’ve decided to experiment with podcasting. You can check out my first ’show’ here.

Gotta Have…
A quick collection of fun things…
I want to walk the mall using this.
The use of this should be obvious.
And an old favorite…
Many Updates
You can probably tell, if you have stopped by here recently, that there have been a lot of changes. The template is coming along, and I’ve added some new features.
There is now a ‘printer friendly’ feature should you wish to dump a long post to the printer and take it with you, perhaps to the [...]
WordPress Upgrade
I’m in the middle of a WordPress upgrade, so the Blog might look a little funny for awhile. Please bear with me.
Interesting Things #5
I do have a couple large posts in the pipeline regarding immigration and the military, so look for those soon. But for now, go check out this insanity.
Spock’s Beard
I woke up this morning feeling better. The cold still lingers, but I can see that I’ll be back to normal in another day or so. I have that slight flush of energy in the wake of the cold, but I know it will dissipate by noon or so.
Unfortunately, I failed to consider the possibility [...]
Screwed up…
Yeah, the format is all different now. This is why you don’t try HTML/PHP modifications with a head cold. It’s going to take me awhile to sort this mess out, so for now you’re stuck with a template I don’t really like.
UPDATE – OK, getting closer, but still have things to fix.
ANOTHER UPDATE [...]
Sick (and) Porn
Colds are unpleasant. Which makes sense, because if they were a great thing, we’d spend all of our time going around licking doorknobs.
And I appreciate the body’s capability to go after the microbial invader. I just wish the body had evolved a way to quietly present you with a nice text [...]
Darth Stupid
Still feeling like crap, so go read this.
Blah
Not feeling well today, so don’t expect any long posts or deep commentary.
So go over here and take a look at this.
And in a related vein, go read about this guy being “over” 911.
Blah. Sometimes it all just wears you down.
Interesting Things #4
A note on Excalibur. I’m happy to say I know someone who works on this project as a quality specialist. Good work, Kim.
Press Neutrality
Republicans commonly complain about media bias, and many of those complaints are valid in my view. However, the remedy to this bias is not counter-bias to the right, which we see on Fox News. Journalism has a vital function in our Republic, and overt bias in either direction is harmful to our electoral [...]
Interesting Things #3
Lileks again, with the Grooviest Hotel Ever. Well worth the time.
Brave Man
Michael Totten packed up his luggage and drove to Iraq like any other tourist. You can read the six part account starting here. Good reading.
Oh Yeee-ah, boyz!
Have you seen the Avis commercial yet?
I have a confession to make.
I’m in that car. I’m an overweight dorky white guy in business dress, grooving to a staccato delivery of language that would mortify me in any other setting.
I have become a huge (literally) Eminem fan.
And in the interest of spreading this [...]
Uncertainty
I hate being a downer. This isn’t the best way to build a blog audience. People don’t keep coming back for a recurring litany of bad news or gloomy outlooks on the future.
But I can’t seem to help it.
We’re living in an age of rapid, unpredictable change, yet thematically, nothing much [...]
Republicanism
The first Gulf War marked a major milestone in my life. I count that as my political awakening as I watched the buildup, execution, and aftermath of that conflict. I grew up as a default Democrat, the son of an auto union worker, accustomed to the idea that the Democrats were out for [...]
Pre-Empted
I’ve been wanting to give a more substantive treatment to the mood that is coming through on my recent posts regarding the future. In the middle of wrestling with what I want to say, I came across a post that does it all for me, and probably better than anything I could produce.
This isn’t [...]
Irrational Men – Part II
Amir Taheri – go read it.
In Ahmadinejad’s analysis, the rising Islamic “superpower” has decisive advantages over the infidel. Islam has four times as many young men of fighting age as the West, with its ageing populations. Hundreds of millions of Muslim “ghazis” (holy raiders) are keen to become martyrs while the infidel youths, loving life [...]
The Danger of Incorrect Lessons
Growing up in the seventies and eighties, I couldn’t help but be aware of those old men showing up on my television from time to time – Premiers Brezhnev, Andropov, Chernenko, and Foreign Ministers Gromyko and Shevardnadze. These rumpled men in their rumpled suits represented an alien force. They were unfathomable, capricious men [...]
