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...
There’s something about those two names side-by-side that makes the idea just jump into your head. The vowel-consanant alternation that endures from beginning to end, I think. Anyway, Roger Catlin thought of it before I did; and, he remembered the all-important “BABE DOMAIN.”
But it was a brainy friend who came up with actual anagrams from out of their unusual names.
Two anagrams of “Barack Obama / Joe Biden” are “A Backboard Meanie Job” and “Maraca Kabob, Be Joined.”
Just “Obama Biden” produces “Bad Aim Bone.”
A casual swipe at the internet also finds for Obama/Biden:
* Babe Domain
* A Dim Babe No
* An Idea Bomb
* A Done Bambi
* I Bemoan Bad
And many more. But I think, as far as prophetic value, “AN IDEA BOMB” stands head and shoulders above all the rest. Roughly half of the voters have figured out already that’s what it is; the other half might know it too, and are trying like the dickens to keep from saying so out loud.

What??? …. Biden has a funny name too???!!!
Just what are you implying???
I need to go through my wallet now and check to see if Joe looks like any of the guys on the bills in there.
😉
I’d think the lefties would like “An Idea Bomb”. They like flashy things that make a lot of noise and change things rapidly, however scattered and predictable that change might be. “Oooh, pretty! Hey, hasn’t this video gone on too long now?”
Of course, the rest of us are wary of the destructiveness of such devices, and the thought of solid matter tearing through flesh and along with the social and economic rubble we’d be left with has us thinking twice about O-Bomb-a.
Ok, now who wants to re-write the lyrics to “you dropped a bomb on me” now?
