Fox News Goes Full Retard

Corrected Fox News Logo
I’ve been watching a lot of the townhall debates lately on C-Span regarding the current attempt in Congress to overhaul the health insurance industry in this country.   One of the better ones I watched recently was Representative Jim Moran’s (D-VI) trying to communicate to his constituents what is in the bill, what [...]

You Know Who You Are

“More flavor than a bowl of fruit loops.”
UPDATE: More hits.

I’m so glad the U.S. never destroyed Canadia.

A Couple New Vids for Shits and Giggles and Deep Morning Thoughts

And of course….

I like the soundtrack on the second one much better.

The Best (and Worst) Superbowl Ever

So I went to my favorite pub/sports pub to do some liveblogging for the Superbowl.
As football is about as close as I come to organized religion, the Superbowl is a big day for me.  A Super Party, if you well.   I had picked my location in the bar early and spent most of the day [...]

I’m Still Trying to Come Up With a Title for My Book

I just thought of another good one, “Philosophy is an Action.”
If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.  I’ve already written down some predictions of what people will think of it, and I want to check my work.
Joel, you first. 

The 1st Book Is Going to Be 50,000 Words Long

I like the number 50.
A comment on Facebook is 1000 characters long, so I’ve been training my ability to be efficient.
So, 50 comments is about a book, right? [UPDATE:  C'mon, I need somebody to check my math.  My book isn't going to be 50,000 characters long (it went past that in the first week) [...]

The First Two Chapters Are Up

As mentioned a little while back, I am putting the blog on hold and writing a book.
O.k. I didn’t do such a good job of that (as the latest posts can testify) but that hasn’t stopped the book from coming along nicely.
They can read be read here.
I’d love to get some feedback on what I’ve [...]

The Greatest Movie Speech EVAR!!!

This is some good editing.
If you need to get fired up, this is two-minutes and fifteen seconds of hella awesome.

found over yonder.
Regarding the tags… there were three I didn’t know, two right after Sean Connery does his thing, and the one right after Hoosiers…I think I got the rest (with slight [...]

Yesterday = Good Candidate for Best Day of the Year

There’s a few things I’d like to do dang near every day if possible.  Three of those things include 1) writing good stuff, 2) having deep, honest, soul-sharing conversations with others, 3) do some dancin’ and 4) engaging in wild, passionate, sexual relations.
So yea, yesterday was a good day.  Particularly since 2) and 4) were [...]

Space Urine is Good

This will be a fun anecdote to tell the grandkids.
HOUSTON (AP) — After several days without luck, astronauts finally ran a successful test on equipment that turns urine into drinking water — a necessity for supporting the international space station’s crew, which will soon double.
“Not to spoil anything, but I think up here the appropriate words are [...]

U.S. Attorney General Struck Down By God for Advocating Torture

Here’s the account…
According to this trusted eyewitness, events transpired roughly as follows.
Attorney General Mukasey was roughly twenty minutes into a speech defending the administration’s torture policies and particularly arguing against prosecutions of people who made decisions in the aftermath of 9/11 (essentially arguing against what he believed amounted to the criminalization of policy differences).
Some seven [...]
