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...
Ah, yes…go get ’em, Andy:
Predict the number of times you’ll hear these garbage platitudes after the White House Beer Summit has convened, and give yourself a prize. Just don’t make it a beer prize, it’ll remind you too much of the whole “mommy scheduled a play date, so I have to go” feeling that this thing has:
“Steps in the right direction.”
“Still a long way to go.”
“Constructive dialogue”
“History of racial profiling”
“Equal responsibility” (Ha!)
“Mutual understanding”
bonus points for…
“Innovative forum”
My mother, who passed on in the year this liberal/conservative melee stuff was just starting to get exciting, in her more vibrant days trained a jaundiced eye especially on the lawyer/bureaucrat phrase “at this particular point in time.” And then there are all the Obama excuses, “Failed policies of the Bush administration,” “Going to take a long time to clean up this mess,” “Only been President a very short time,” “Worst economy since the Great Depression.”
But on the issue of race, there is “healing,” “unity,” “shameful past,” “diversity” and “come to grips.”
You need twenty-four to make a Bingo card.
