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...
Pretty priceless, although not unique, for you haven’t long to wait for the next similar specimen.
Gerard found a “Magnum Dopus” from someone who helped put Obama in the White House, and now that the Chosen One is headed there for His Coronation Ceremony next month…goldang it, somehow still isn’t happy.
Yup, some people live out their entire lives at a turning point. Lots of people. Perhaps everyone who has ever thought of supporting His Holiness. We need to have another revolution…
Millions of us stood up and shouted, handed out fliers, talked to our neighbors, donated hard-earned money, and drove people to the polls for Change. We screamed, hugged, kissed, and cried when we learned Change had come to America. We knew Change wouldn’t come overnight, that it would take time, but we were excited that we had elected a man who was open to Change, who said he wanted to consider real people’s needs while in the Oval Office. We eagerly awaited the first hints of Change, as the president-elect’s transition developed.
And now, we have reason to worry that Change is not coming to America after all. For nearly two years we were encouraged to “Be the Change you want to see in America.” It is now obvious that we have a ways to go toward Being that Change. And so does President-elect Barack Obama. And that, above all else, needs to Change.
Of all the revolutions that demanded more and more precision-tuning, and still more, and more, every time someone somewhere sought to define what it was — this one has got to be the most ambiguous. Perhaps the reason it is so ambiguous, is it seems no one, anywhere, has sufficient authority to offer the definition of what exactly it is supposed to be.
Perhaps it never was anything more than a deep-seated psychological need to be bossy.
Oh well, Mr. Inglis; that part of your grand vision, if none other, will be seated on the throne and duly annointed come January 20. You can be sure of that.
