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...
Yeah, they start off by picking on my guy Fred.
But that’s okay. Fred Thompson is a far cry from the “Mr. Thompson” guy in the book, but give the Objectivists credit where it is due. It is a truism of life — you “sacrifice for the greater good” and nobody says “oh, goody, he’s a good person he sacrificed let’s leave him alone.” Nope. They come back like the ducks and geese you shouldn’t have fed, and the “moral ideal” by which they demanded your original sacrifice, becomes a distant memory — in no time at all.
And your “original” sacrifice becomes an “original” sin.
Sen. Thompson did fall for it. Although he had his reasons. I’ll get into that some other time, it’s a little off topic. For now, I think it’s important that Mr. Galt’s speech be disseminated far and wide, in some other format besides pp. 923 through 977 in micro-font. It’s an important message.

Again I must steal some of this for my own nefarious purposes. I seek to profit off the work of other better men.

Let me know when one comes along, and I’ll kick his ass.
