All We Hear is Radio Gaga

Wednesday, June 27th, 2007

And some Radio goo-goo, as well. Yes, tonight is the irregularly-scheduled mtpoltics.net Blog Talk Radio show, "Small Town, Long Streets." On the plate tonight is basically stuff that hacks me off, including, but not limited to credit card fees, bank fees, plus whatever hacks you off as well. Maybe it's the ...

Random Neural Firing

Tuesday, June 26th, 2007

I know this will shatter some of your preconceptions about me, but I'm totally comfortable around gay guys. I think I know why. I grew up with Paul Lynde on Hollywood Squares. Holy crow that guy was gay. Gay, gay, gay. But funny? Bet your sweet patoot he was.

Best Description of Blogging. Evar.

Scroll up to read the entire post, but this comment is the most succinct, appropriate summation of life in the blogotubes that I have read to date.

Energy Continued

Thursday, June 21st, 2007

This news article touches on similar issues we were discussing in an earlier post. Two things strike me about the article: 1) whether coal to liquid is even environmentally friendly is debatable (isn't that typical?); and 2) the coal industry is unwilling to produce coal to liquid without massive (and I mean ...

The Big Blue Room is kicking my ass as of late, so I got nuthin'. Except for this. Which is not so gret, actully.

Levity Break

This video is sheer genius, especially if you (like me) had some formative years in the late '70's.

Important USSC Decision

Friday, June 15th, 2007

This US Supreme Court decision is quite critical to the future of education reform in the US. It is the first step in chipping away at the entrenched education establishment. This case was spearheaded by a free market think tank in Washington State called the Evergreen Freedom Foundation. This is ...

Hybrid Hoax?

Wednesday, June 13th, 2007

I thought this article was interesting food for thought. One thing he overlooked is that a Prius has much less emissions than a Hummer. Nonetheless, his point about mining nickel could be an offsetting factor. Meanwhile, the feds are busy tinkering with human behavior with the tax code.

I Can Feel It Coming In The Air Tonight

Peas in a Pod

Wednesday, June 6th, 2007

I don't know if you would classify Pervez Musharraf as a "right-winger," but he's clamping down on the press, too. In my mind, the difference between Pervez and Hugo is that you won't find many -- if any -- folks on the dextra jumping up to defend Musharraf.

Small Town, Long Streets - Tonight!

Wednesday, June 6th, 2007

Tonight is the semi-regular broadcast of "Small Town, Long Streets," the mtpolitics.net podcast. I'll be flying solo tonight, but I do have some topics on the burner: Snyder's Drug The Republican Presidential Field The Democratic Presidential Field My Pokemans. I will show you them. Plus, your calls, which will no doubt introduce more topics of ...

My Boobs. Let Me Show You Them.*

Tuesday, June 5th, 2007

I read this article about a DUI arrestee who tried to get out of the ticket with a little flash and chuckled. Then, I see that Fark got a hold of it. Good times, good times.
