PETA Snatches Defeat From The Jaws of Victory

Saturday, July 16th, 2005

It's been a while since I've posted anything about PETA, but I have to point you to this article I found over at New Left West Network. There is a pond in Lewis and Clark County where they are having problems with ducks getting caught in fishing line, so the County ...

Have You Ever Wondered . . .

Friday, July 15th, 2005

. . . why rural folks have such contempt for "dudes" and "city slickers?" Here's your answer. It almost makes one hope that some cataclysm does make Morford and his ilk have to beg one of us rural folk to share some home-cut venison. The red states will finally rule the world. They ...

Moos Rules

Friday, February 18th, 2005

I've been under the weather (along with most of the fam dam) for most of the past week, so Moos stepped up for me and made fun of PETA. Thanks Moos. If I ever see anything post-card related, I've got your back!

A Stupid Idea if I Ever Heard One

Friday, February 18th, 2005

Now that I'm into my mid-thirties, I'm amazed that I was allowed to get a driver's license at 15. I will stipulate that there are some 15-year olds who are more mature than some 30- (or 40- or 50-) year olds, but I don't think they're quite ready to gain the ...

Liberal Dictionary of The Future

Friday, July 16th, 2004

Proceeds from "The Future Dictionary of America," will go to groups "working for the public good in the 2004 election." Which, as we know, is code for liberal groups. Some of the "definitions" included in this book are: "environment - a conceptual space, like the airspace over Iraq, which will create ...

Petards Are Made For Hoisting

Tuesday, June 22nd, 2004

Just when you think that we're finished with Enron, Tyco, WorldCom, and their ilk, along comes another corporate scandal, complete with investors being cheated, questionable accounting practices, and the true condition of the company was covered up at the highest levels. If I said that there wasn't a little bit of ...

In Case You’re Still Wondering Why PETA Deserves Our Scorn

Friday, June 18th, 2004

It's no news to regular readers, that I hold PETA in the lowest regard. Tony points out this story about the Earth Liberation Front (subsidized by PETA) torching a lumberyard because some forklifts supposedly "emitted more pollution than diesel engines." As Tony notes, a lumberyard fire of that size has to have ...

You’re Kidding, Right?

Friday, May 28th, 2004

You know, I really have a hard time understanding why so many people are giving this movie so much credibility. As far as I'm concerned, I'm willing to accept global warming — but, to me, the evidence is equivocal as to whether or not it's man-made. But, let me remind you: ...

I Wonder Where PETA Stands on This

Thursday, January 29th, 2004

I wonder what PETA has to say about this? You just know they're against it: “We have seen an increase since 1999 when child pornography became illegal,” said Johan Beck-Friis. “It appears, in other words, as there are some people who have replaced children with animals. In both circumstances, it is ...

Say What You Mean, Mean What You Say

Look, if you say that you're going to move to Canada (France, Sweden, etc.), if George Bush is re-elected, at least have the guts to follow through when it does happen.

The Price of Howard

Wow. That's helping out the working folks, isn't it? Sorry. I forgot. I'm wealthy. (Link from zombyboy by way of Rosemary Esmay.)

Another Victory For The World Court

Sunday, December 28th, 2003

It looks like Slobodan Milosevic may win a seat in the Serbian Parliament. At least that whole ethnic cleansing bother hasn't diminished his career opportunities.

Guess What? Your Town is Going to Die!

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2003

And your livelihood along with it! And your tax base! That's just too damn bad! (First letter.) It's one thing to laud a judge's decision, but quite another to dance on the figurative grave of people's livelihoods.
