Exhibit 32

Monday, May 5th, 2008

James has a great post over at 2nd Grade Bike Rack (you should ask him the story behind that name one of these days) talking about "Exhibit 32" from the last Environmental Quality Council. He wasn't able to post it at Blogspot, but he was kind enough to ...

Wherein I Finally Understand White Privilege

Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

One of the major beefs I have with education is that higher education seems to want to spend money on bullshit, and not things like, oh, math, science, engineering, economics and things of that nature. And, being a bullshitter myself, I do consider myself somewhat a connoisseur of male bovine fecal ...

Delicious Schadenfreude

Monday, March 17th, 2008

After so many years of candidates from the right being pounded for their various pastors, isn't it delicious to see the shoe on the other foot? That's a rhetorical question, but I'll answer it: Yes. Yes it is. While we're speaking of race (sort of), I'm ashamed to live in ...

What’s It Gonna Be, Fellas?

Friday, February 8th, 2008

It's taken as an article of faith on the left that conservatives and Republicans pretty much mindlessly follow whatever the radio pundits tell them to do. How, then, to explain the emergence of McCain as the presumptive Republican nominee, against the apparent consternation of said hosts?

Dude. Wait, What?

Tuesday, February 5th, 2008

There's an election or something going on today? For having the word "politics" in the title of this thing, I feel compelled to say something, but as it turns out, I couldn't say it any better than this. Seems like the big question will be if the Paul-Bearers can carry the day ...

Somewhere, Iosif Vissarionovich is Smiling

Saturday, January 12th, 2008

Relax citizen! There is no need to worry about your thermostat! We will take care of it for you! Why don't we just put radio-controlled light switches in, while we're at it. Let's not forget our ovens, which draw quite a bit of juice. And what about our fridges ...

Investment Opportunity

Helena has had a ban on smoking in all public establishments for the past 4 (or so) years. This includes bars, casinos, restaurants, etc. Physicians here have claimed that within six months of the ban, heart disease plummeted. It's good all around. Well, unless you're a smoker. I had ...

Simply Brilliant

Tuesday, April 10th, 2007

I think I'm getting into the methane offset business. Ask me how I can take your money and invest it in methane reducing technology. Or not.

Dumb and Dumberer

Tuesday, April 10th, 2007

I'm not sure who's dumber here. Republicans for acting like general buttheads all session, or people who think that Federal Dollars are "Free Money.

So Right It’s Creepy

Monday, April 9th, 2007

Oh, the hue and cry about conditions at the VA hospital from our sinestra pals. It seems like it wasn't all that long ago they were singing the VA's praises.

Missed Opportunity.

That this wasn't trumpeted to the heavens by the BDS crowd. Then again, maybe I slept through it. I think it's silly. This is news?

A Parable, Kinda Sorta, or Maybe an Allegory

Sunday, February 18th, 2007

This can probably be taken a dozen different ways. Take what you will from it, and make of it what you will. Once upon a time, there was a small town nestled in the mountains. The people who lived there were, by and large, simple. Which isn't to ...

Draining the Swamp, D-Style! Part the Third

Saturday, February 17th, 2007

If it weren't true, it would be funny. "Cold Cash" Jefferson on the Homeland Security committee. This stuff practically writes itself.

A Stupid Question

Saturday, January 13th, 2007

Really, as you know, it's the only kind I ask, but I thought it worth "throwing out there." On more than one site, I have read the proposition that if we withdraw from Iraq, then suddenly, all will be sunshine and roses and peace will reign throughout the region. My question is ...
