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...

During April 2012, I was driving a work transport van from the Kearl site to Wapasu Man camp in northern Alberta. There were seven to 10 individuals from various companies and diversities riding in the van. We were listening to the radio, talking among individuals and just trying to make the ride as mentally short as possible.
Without thinking, I told a joke that had ethnic implications. Later, I received notice from APEGA that I had offended one or others in the van. The joke was not intended to offend anyone. I have officially apologized to the individual that reported the incident to APEGA.
I wholeheartedly apologize to APEGA and its members. I am truly sorry of my lack of prudence when interacting with the diverse workforce in the oil sands projects.
“Iggy Slanter” sez…
Q: Who reports jokes?
A: someone that has been trained to be insulted.
From the great Jack Lemmon movie that absolutely, positively cannot be remade now…
Charles: The Port Authority is livid. The Freighter people are furious. And Mr. Lampson himself is terribly upset.
Stanley Ford: Of course he’s upset, he’s a lawyer. He’s paid to be upset.
The movie is older than I am, it hit the marquee well before I was conceived.
Prescient, no?
