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...
Okay this is pretty weird…
A Sams Valley man was killed and his mother critically injured after their vehicle struck a bull elk on a state highway near Union Creek late Saturday night.
Rodney Wonacott, 51, was killed instantly when the westbound Buick he was driving, and an eastbound Ford pickup truck, simultaneously slammed into the elk which was standing in the middle of Oregon State Highway 230.
The driver of the Ford truck, 28-year-old Aaron Platt of Redmond, and his passengers were not injured in the crash, police reports said.
Rita Dyer said her brother and mother were returning from a funeral in Bend when the fatal crash occurred on the dark and rain-slicked highway near Union Creek.
“The two cars cut the elk in half.” Dyer said.
:
Both vehicles were traveling in opposite directions towards each other when they crashed into the elk. The truck and car did not come into contact with one another. But her brother’s car veered off the highway upon impact with the elk, careening off the wesbound shoulder and slamming into a tree, Dyer said. [emphasis mine]
Poor elky-welky.
What’re the odds of that happenin’?

Not recommended.
