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.

…to arrive at tax freedom day (article is now one year old).
Tax Freedom Day — the date on which Americans have earned enough to pay this year’s tax obligations at the federal, state and local levels — falls today, April 27th, for residents of Connecticut, giving them the latest Tax Freedom Day in the nation. This is 18 days after national Tax Freedom Day (April 9).
Rhode Island reached Tax Freedom Day on April 12th, Massachusetts on the 14th, and New York on the 23rd.
And why is tax freedom day important?
…Americans will pay more in taxes in 2011 than they will spend on groceries, clothing and shelter combined.
But it’s taken from the rich and then redistributed to “working families” so that makes it all okay, right?
You can tell there’s something fundamentally dishonest about it, because when the time comes to defend it, the defenders just want to talk about police, firemen, sidewalks and park benches.
Go Connecticut.
