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...
Dude, that’s gross…
A man at his local RBC Bank was told at the drive-thru that the bank didn’t sell money orders. He responded to this inconvenience by doing what any rational and sane person would do: he urinated in the drive-thru’s plastic tube.
Wait, what?
When he was told he couldn’t purchase a money order, the man reportedly became upset, mumbled something “about bad customer service,” and then urinated in the tube.
That’s foul. But it gets worse.
“Another customer pulled into the same drive-through lane shortly after the incident and said the tube had liquid in it that smelled like urine,” reports The St. Augustine Record. “She picked up the tube and urine spilled onto her and her car.”
“Times are hard, people are crazy, anything’s liable to happen.” Oh, dear. And here we have a disagreement about something that one would expect not to inspire any disagreements. As the prison population explodes and people continue to do nutty things, do we just build more prisons? Or do we nod toward the damning statistics, find some reasons to turn people loose, and just expect something now & then?
Me, I don’t think we should be expecting it. And if we have to, then that’s a sign we need to build more prisons. Otherwise, what’s the point of having any laws at all? I think the lady who was next in line and got the golden shower, if she disagreed with that point-of-view before, she probably doesn’t now.
Hard times…blegh. It goes back to my anyone/everyone rule. In this case, if anyone anywhere is capable of getting through tough economic times without piddling on people, that means everyone everywhere is, including this guy. Give him his year, and I hope it’s spent turning big rocks into little rocks. Just disgusting.
