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...
Gerard noticed that Tony Puryear “doesn’t even try to create original bullshit,” calling his work “Too little. Too late. Too derivative.” The question is, derivative of what. Commenter Len astutely noticed (#1), in his own words, “This brings back memories of a Chairman Mao poster.” And that’s what I was thinking. The beams of radiance emanating from from the illustrious cranium of Chairman Hill. There must be something about wanting to control the lives of millions of others, that makes your head glow in the dark; or shoot out ray beams, or something.
Is it the extreme height of intelligence that makes one uniquely qualified to be a communist stooge? What happens if they look right at the camera, does something come out their eyes? Is it really hard for them to play hide-and-go-seek in the dark?
Yes, the more I think on it, the more I’m sure I’ve seen something like this before:
Is this what Puryear had in mind?
You know, I don’t imagine it very much matters. I got busy with my ramshackle Photoshop-lite tools, and slapped together a subtle enhancement to Puryear’s work, which I feel quite confident would meet the approval of Her Hillaryness in these closing days of her presidential bid.
And Chairman Mao, too, for that matter.

Now take a similar image of Barack and give it the same treatment. Only the caption on that one should read:
