Alarming News: I like Morgan Freeberg. A lot.
American Digest: And I like this from "The Blog That Nobody Reads", because it is -- mostly -- about me. What can I say? I'm on an ego trip today. It won't last.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: We were following a trackback and thinking "hmmm... this is a bloody excellent post!", and then we realized that it was just part III of, well, three...Damn. I wish I'd written those.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: ...I just remembered that I found a new blog a short while ago, House of Eratosthenes, that I really like. I like his common sense approach and his curiosity when it comes to why people believe what they believe rather than just what they believe.
Brutally Honest: Morgan Freeberg is brilliant.
Dr. Melissa Clouthier: Morgan Freeberg at House of Eratosthenes (pftthats a mouthful) honors big boned women in skimpy clothing. The picture there is priceless--keep scrolling down.
Exile in Portales: Via Gerard: Morgan Freeberg, a guy with a lot to say. And he speaks The Truth...and it's fascinating stuff. Worth a read, or three. Or six.
Just Muttering: Two nice pieces at House of Eratosthenes, one about a perhaps unintended effect of the Enron mess, and one on the Gore-y environ-movie.
Mein Blogovault: Make "the Blog that No One Reads" one of your daily reads.
The Virginian: I know this post will offend some people, but the author makes some good points.
Poetic Justice: Cletus! Ah gots a laiv one fer yew...
Jennifer Stone-Anderson says her 2004 Saturn Ion became a work of art this fall when she covered it with elaborate paintings supporting Barack Obama.
But Chrysler, which financed her car purchase, maintains that it’s just a car. And that Stone-Anderson has been missing payments. And that her work of “art” is about to be repossessed.
Stone-Anderson’s unemployment was the root of the art, but her lack of work may also bring the loss of it. In May, she gained free time when she was laid off from Rainbow Art and Design in Tampa, Fla., so she started painting her car with leftover acrylics.
Since the layoff, she has been working as a freelance artist, but hasn’t been able to find enough work to keep all the bills paid.
Stone-Anderson missed her car payments in December, January and February and has started receiving calls from Chrysler. She has ignored them.
She said that Chrysler has the paperwork to repossess the car, and it’s really just a matter of the company finding it at this point. The car is hard to miss, but Stone-Anderson said she’s not worried about the company taking it.
“Barack says he’s an eternal optimist,” she said. “We’re like minds.”

The last time I saw something this perfect was a few years ago in Sonoma county when a local moonbat who styles herself “Betty Biodiesel” (really) started running recycled fryer fat in a brand new VW diesel, and blew every seal in less that 40,000 miles.

I feel a bit bad for whomever has to try and resell this so-called “art” and attempt to recoup some of the losses. The very first thing the car will need is a new paint job and that will not be cheap.
