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...
If you told me six months ago I’d find something awful about a nationwide rejection of Hillary Clinton, I’d have told you you were nuts.
But throughout my grousing about this wonderful awful invention for which nobody wants to claim any credit, the twenty-one month long campaign season, one thing that’s been left unmentioned is this:
Our finalists for the nation’s highest political office, and virtual leader of the free world, John McCain and Barack Obama, are the finalists because…
…they’re the ones our journalists love the most.
Let’s just be honest about who narrowed the field for the rest of us before we were allowed to participate in the process. The folks who give us our news. Our bad news. Who make commissions off bad news. Who starve if there isn’t enough of it.
This is a twenty-first century innovation. One of the few. And it isn’t a good one by any means.

Aiiieee. I’m SO with you on the Barack thing. I stayed up until the wee, wee hours this morning, watching all the krep. I switched over to {gasp!} MSNBC when Fox began their re-run cycle and watched those idjits pontificate. There’s some serious truth in the “train-wreck” analogy, here. I couldn’t look away, even though I was horrified.
I have to mail my absentee ballot application TODAY for the TX primary. And I’m thinking of switching party affiliation and voting for Hillary. I’m serious as a heart-attack, too.
