I just made my first ever political donation. I donated $10 to help elect William Russell, who I had never heard of until this evening. When Glenn Reynolds made the suggestion of helping the opponent of John Murtha (D-Pennsylvania) in their battle for over Murtha’s congressional seat. I just plain don’t like Murtha and thought, [...]

One thing I’ve noticed as a result of my accident that is pretty frustrating is my minor memory loss. I like to sing along to my iPod music when I am in the car but, lately, I’ve noticed that I cannot remember the words to songs that I’ve known for nearly 20 years. [...]

Seriously, what the hell!?

This is rather entertaining.
LAWSUIT AGAINST GOD DISMISSED for failure to obtain personal service. But Ilya Somin objects: “I’m not entirely convinced that the ruling is correct.

After what seemed an [...]

It was about how the Dutch have fought off tides and floods for the last 2000 years (undoubtedly the fault of President Bush) and they’ve had some major innovations over the past 50 years to [...]

You know, I just noticed that I haven’t posted anything in 9 days. That’s a long time. Perhaps I’ll remedy it.

You know, I never realized that I had never seen Star Wars Episode III. I started watching it a few minutes ago and thought to myself, “Self, this is stuff I don’t recognize. Could it really be?”
Sure enough, it is.

I just finished watching some standup by Brian Regan. It was called The Epitome of Hyperbole and I recorded it a couple of nights ago on Comedy Central and it was pretty funny. I like how his humor is clean as it’s something I could let my kids watch. In fact, I may just do [...]
