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...
Demanding Mekeeda Austin, 13, warned Father Christmas that he will be ‘killed’ if he fails to deliver at least two of her long list of lavish gifts.
She even threatened to ‘hunt down’ Santa’s reindeer and ‘cook them and serve their meat to homeless people on Xmas day’ if she doesn’t get her way.
Her mother Tracey Austin, 40, was dumbstruck when she found the demanding note in her daughter’s school bag.
In the letter Mekeeda, from Brickhill, Bedford, demands a Blackberry, a designer Laura Knitted 33 Jumper, money, Converse trainers and sunglasses.
As well as gifts Mekeeda also demands Father Christmas bring her ‘the real’ Justin Bieber and teenage singer Austin Mahone.
She signs off with the chilling warning: “Remember…two of these, or you die.”
But her mother Tracey, 40, is not punishing her for the letter and has vowed to meet her daughter’s demands…”When I first found the letter I thought it was funny, now I think I better get her what she wants, the last thing I want is for her to kill Santa…I know it sounds like she is spoilt but I like to get my daughter what she wants also you don’t want to get on the wrong side of her.”
Charming.
Update: Via Miss Cellania, by way of Gerard: Wonder if this is the Santa she’s thinking of takin’ out? Wouldn’t mind being there when it all goes down; Mekeeda might’ve bitten off more than she can chew, here. Good luck Mekeeda!

Yeah, either this or the Billy Ray Cyrus character from “Bad Santa.”
Joking aside, it doesn’t bother this girl’s parents that a 13 year old child is threatening someone with *murder* if she does not receive a certain list of Christman *presents?* As in…gifts, not entitlements?
That kid needs to be marched straight to a counselor, and from there, to church, and then on to a homeless shelter, where she’ll spend the entire holiday serving ham dinners to bums. As soon as her head gets straightened out, she needs to be introduced to Jesus…and then taught the real meaning of the holiday.
This is disgusting. That kid has so much wrong with her, I hardly know where to begin…but my greatest wrath is reserved for the parents, who apparently have allowed the conditions in their home that led to the development of this little psychopath. I’d like to sic CPS on these cretins. That kid would be taken from them permanently and placed in foster care with a decent Christian family if it were up to me.
