  • Thank you Dr. Helen

    Via Insty: Dr. Helen relates her experience at the local Earth Fare (an organic-type grocery store) where the checker and bagger both go off on a “All Men are Pigs” rant. What is most interesting about this is that they are just repeating something, as if by rote. When challenged by Dr. Helen, they backtrack… Continue reading

  • FINALLY! Someone taking some responsibility for their actions!!

    I saw this via Gateway Pundit…. A drunk guy was turned away from a Veterans of Foreign Wars post and, being a pissed-off drunk guy, he decided to burn the flag outside the post. So the guys inside, taking umbrage at this act, decided that he had three choices: he could be turned over to… Continue reading

  • Jefferson Airplane Meets Star Trek

    For your evening’s psychedelia…. via Chas Clifton at Hardscrabble Creek. Continue reading

  • Indoctrination in our Schools

    Via Bookworm Room and The Breda Fallacy, respectively. I have to admit that until last year, the thought of having kids was furthest from my mind. I’ve changed on that, but if do have them, incidents like this will definitely have me home schooling.

  • Roland Burris–Cog in the Machine or just a Tool?

    Listened to Don Wade and Roma on WLS this morning. I have to admit they usually drive me nuts but this morning they had Senator Roland Burris on so I thought I’d give a listen. He said that he is absolutely not running for the Senate again (citing no time for fundraising because he’s so… Continue reading

  • The gifts that keep on giving…

    Brigid over at Home on the Range has some early Christmas present ideas for the guys out there. She shows quite a bit of insight as to what would fly (or not) in our household and the picture with the ammo in a heart made me feel all warm inside. I was reminded of a… Continue reading

  • It was a time when men were men; sheep were nervous… okay, the men were bored…

    Got this from my college roommate. I thought it was wicked funny. Continue reading

  • Yeah, what they said….

    Hamilton, Madison, and Jay have a new posting up today that juxtaposes nicely with my thoughts about the attitude of the administration towards us poor, non-Harvard-educated, unwashed masses. They note that the government is now going on tour to indoctrinate our children into drinking the climate-change Kool-Aid. If part of their road-show includes the “I… Continue reading

  • Our Moral Compass

    I kind of hate using the word ‘moral’ because everyone has their own line where they would say that something is either moral or immoral. But something that’s been percolating since the blogmeet is the difference in moral compass between those who would consider themselves to be either conservative or liberal. For example, conservatives generally… Continue reading

  • Things I Learned at the Blogmeet

    Attended my first blogmeet today and met several folks whose words I’ve read avidly. Some things I learned: I REALLY need a Leatherman Wave; RobertaX has the best miniature mobile toolkit I’ve seen; Old Grouch has great taste in food; I’m glad that Shermlock Shomes decided not to do his MSG/pain experiment (as far as… Continue reading
