Street Justice, Doggy Style

Sunday, August 12th, 2007

A "pet detective" finds a dog overheating in a car, so he breaks the window to get the dog to a hospital. Not sure what to do about the owner, Ace handcuffed him to the car, where he was beaten by the crowd after Ace's departure. Michael Vick was unavailable ...

The REAL Inconvenient Truth

Saturday, August 11th, 2007

In light of the fact that a vast majority of Americans have been hoodwinked into the global warming scare, every American should be required to watch this. Why is this the REAL inconvenient truth? Well, if this video is correct -- which I believe it is -- then the neo-Marxist ...

So now you can be charged with a hate crime solely due to the sexual orientation of the victim, regardless of whether there is actually anything to suggest that it was a "hate" crime. Wow. Who'da ever thunk that?

My Low Point as a Steeler Fan

Thursday, August 9th, 2007

I've been a Steelers fan for 30 years now. I've suffered through Cliff Stoudt, Mark Malone and watched Neil O'Donnell (*spit*) earn an Honorary MVP for the Cowboys in Super Bowl XXX. I held out hope through the Kordell Stewart years. But this . . . this is the ...

Over at Missoulapolis, Carol is hacked off at Steven Leavitt's blog entry at the NYT, entitled, "If You Were A Terrorist, How Would You Attack? Carol is not alone, the comments in the entry are full of people who feel the same way. I've read and heard other ...

Monday, August 6th, 2007

One of the shibboleths of the left is that "Diversity is Good™", sometimes phrased as "Diversity is our Strength." Personally, I'm not against diversity, per se, but I am against it when it is used as a means to an end, or when it is contrived for reasons ...

Some Saturday Music

Saturday, August 4th, 2007

A friend of mine has "Concert for George" on DVD. He's also in his early 50's and a confirmed bachelor, so he had a ginormous HDTV, and 7.2 Doubly*, and it was awesome. I especially liked the drummers all being in sync. Good stuff. Bonus stuff below the fold...

Marconi Plays The Mambo

Wednesday, August 1st, 2007

They're always playing corporation games. Personally, I couldn't care less, since they're always changing corporation names. Tonight we'll describe in exquisite detail how all the ills in the world can be placed squarely at the feet of modern liberalism. Oh, yeah. Good times. Good times, indeed.
