“Versatile Blogger” awardmemechainletter

| July 3, 2010

Justwritecat hit me with the Versatile Blogger award a while back and yes, I have seriously put off blogging for a week or so because I hadn’t written this post yet.  Not like you care. Now, the weird thing I that I can’t find the origin of this thing.  Naturally, google is polluted from all [...]

Weekend linksplosion

| April 26, 2009

I haven’t done this in a while…but I’ve got too many links to get them out in any speedy manner if I do it one by one.  So.  BOOM: How to Destroy the Government in 3 Easy Steps : The conservative strategy, or so I’m told. Was Lincoln racist?  An examination of his changing political [...]

net blips for the morning

| April 15, 2009

Some highly entertaining/interesting reading for the morning: Republicans get mad when the surveillance programs they thought were a good idea under Bush are turned against them.  Hey, I’m against all this surveillance too – but you weren’t crying about it when they were spying on lefties were you?  Karma’s a bitch.

inside a day. And now, of course I want more. I love finding new (old) online comics, because then I have years of story to process.  Unfortunately, at 2-3 strips per week, even 5+ years of comics goes pretty fast.

The funny thing (to me) is that these folks have to go through the websites one at a time.  So, you know, they’re getting paid government money to dig through trashy porn sites for tax evaders. I wonder if this is a high demand job…like all the young dudes want to get assigned to porn [...]

it’s Canada’s turn to look dumb

| April 8, 2009

Seriously. Letting children sue their parents for punishment – and win? And you thought American courts were getting meddlesome…this is crazy. How are parents supposed to oh, I don’t know, PARENT with the threat of legal action from their child hanging over them? Thankfully this is Canada…hopefully it will be a warning to our system [...]

This is worth a read. It seems obvious now that they point it out…

PETA: Petkillers Ethically Treating Animalsthrougheuthenasia?

| April 2, 2009

Yeah, I couldn’t think of anything particularly witty.  This should obvious. Anyway, so I didn’t even realize PETA was part of the animal shelter/rehousing gig – but it turns out they are, and they really suck at it.

stupid people alert: mom lets son starve to death because he won’t say “amen”

OK, it’s more complicated than that, but just barely.

The Onion, Obama, Battlestar

| April 1, 2009

My thoughts will come later, but for now you can see how the Pres feels about the whole thing. Looks like he was into it more for the event than the story.  Chin up Barack, all good stories have to end, even if they end poorly.
