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...
The Federalist Papers, via Young Conservatives:
I noticed a lot of the people commenting seemed to be missing the point entirely. To raise a child to become a productive adult, you have to raise him to take walks in other people’s shoes, to react to things, respond, plan ahead, prevent bad things from happening, take responsibility…but while he’s a baby, all that stuff has to wait. Sometime ahead, though, it will have to come back. There will have to be transformations.
Too many parents are incapable of this transformation. They remain stuck in “Bring the baby what he needs” mode. Then, they make the wrong-headed decision that parenting must be all about affirmation; impressing on Precious that all the choices he makes, big and small, are as right and as wonderful as could be. But life, of course, doesn’t give a shit about affirming anybody’s decisions…
