I wondered what ever happened to that guy? Of course, if this happened today, the good folks at Google that “do no evil” would have furnished his personal information to the Chinese government within two hours and him and his family would have bullets in the back of their heads by tonight.
Five consecutive comments, but, oh, too bad! Only four posts. So, so close. It’s the difference between a grand slam and an easy pop fly caught on the warning track.
I don’t know about anybody else, but I can’t access threedonia again today. I can read the comments in my RSS feed, or “backstage,” which is where I am now. But I can’t actually visit the site. No-can-do at NRO, too. Every other site seems to be fine.
Whatever happened with that “net-neutrality” bill?
And the Earth makes yet another 360 degree revolution on its axis with no celebrating alfalfa awarded to Mr. Kriskey. It’s now painfully obvious to everyone but him that last week was a fluke.
The best hitters have slumps, Rufus. It’s just more evidence that the panel is completely unbiased. It also may be that I’ve encountered quite a bit of “junk ball pitchers” this week.
It’s much harder to hit ‘em out of the park if they don’t come in with any mustard on them.
This is coming from completely out of the blue and is old news now but like a splinter it keeps bothering me so I guess I have to get this out somewhere.
Not sure if people here torture themselves with NPR but being the masochist that I am, I turn it on. When they report about the President they use (NPR claims they’ve used the format I’m about to mention for decades) a fairly standard practice where the first mention of the President is “President Whoever” and then for the second and subsequent times, “Mister Whoever”.
In all my time listening to NPR while Bush was in office, this always seemed the case. Fast forward to January 20th, 2009 and suddenly people are complaining:
This part is just rich, “I have often heard news broadcasters refer to President Bush as Mr. Bush – and I felt it was disrespectful – and thought it came from society’s opinion that President Bush was a very big disappointment.” Apparently there was a (relatively speaking) flood of concern over this, how very disrespectful it is of the new President.
The point? This is all very depressing. This so goes to the core about how people are so willing to delude themselves, how brainwashed the American public really is. No one seemed to care calling President Bush, Mr. Bush because I guess he was a total pinhead and worthy of disrespect. The article even mentions how people actually resisted the explanation! This guy had to set out to pull up archives to defend their point.
Take that in for a minute. The listening public is so enamored with Dear Leader that they rejected the explanation on its face. Yet this disrespect was acceptable… nay deserved for Bush. I’m going to the bar to down a bottle of whiskey, anyone want to join me?

Hey Hillary demanded they name the missing and the dead from today massacre. Of course they laughed. THey hold our debt. What a stupid stupid woman.
This is why you don’t let your kids watch Pee Wee’s Big Adventure:
Heard from the kitchen, “You know, the Alamo, the place without a basement” Glad to know home schooling is working for us.
For those of you who knew/cared, baby girls MRI results came back normal today. Normal. Thank God.
That is very good news for the Zoons!
Why do I feel like chanting, “USA! USA!”
It doesn’t make any sense!
“USA! USA!”

If I’d only said, “adding pictures, Outlaw!”

Thank you Mike, I will now clear you from dr zoons list.
I felt a little like chanting myself but settled for crying.
my lovely bride’s request was denied. the list is not founded on grace.
Its all good for me. Maybe someone’s out to get you.
There’s no “maybe” about it, my simian friend.

I think they’re angling for “His Majesty,” but will settle for a simple “Lord Obama.”
