trzupr | Friday, 28th of November 2008 at 11:37:37 AM God has a sense of humor. We know this, because He created a universe that includes both Michael Moore and cheeseburgers, and they were allowed to discover each other. Christians, or at least the vast majority of us, have a sense of humor about not only ourselves, but our religion. And by “sense of humor”, [...]

One of my favorite things about this time of year is the music. A lot of my favorite music is Christmas themed and you simply cannot listen to it in July. Also, a lot of the music is simple enough that even [...]

Outlaw13 | Friday, 28th of November 2008 at 08:17:11 AM Not only is this guy a grade A idiot and a deserter but he should be hauled out back behind the shed and have his ass beaten.
He deployed to Iraq between SEP 2004 and FEB 2005 (not a complete tour by the way), and then decides that he can’t take it any more in [...]

Outlaw13 | Friday, 28th of November 2008 at 07:42:07 AM After the reaction to the Mustang post it seems we may have a few gearheads hanging around.
Those of you who enjoy fast cars may get a kick out of this video, featuring the future Mrs. Outlaw, Pilar Lastra. Filmed at the World Class Driving Show at French Lick, IN, she tells us about and [...]

Outlaw13 | Friday, 28th of November 2008 at 07:00:16 AM Previously I posted about President Bush speaking at Fort Campbell, Ky.
Here, courtesy of A Soldier’s Perspective is the text of that speech:
President Bush Visit Fort Campbell November 25th, 2008
Thank you. Please be seated — unless, of course, you don’t have a seat. (Laughter.) I am honored to be here at Fort [...]

Floyd | Friday, 28th of November 2008 at 12:26:05 AM House is done! Floyd did a pretty good job painting the house. I gave a 110% and I thank God for keeping the paint on the walls… I couldn’ta done it without Him. My new 120G iPod helped myself paint the house. Today’s sampling is Texas music…. NOT Stevie Ray Vaughn or ZZ Top… those [...]

A year ago about this time I was standing in a line at the dining facility (DFAC) in Camp Taji Iraq awaiting my serving of processed turkey and an attempt at cornbread dressing. God Bless them for trying but to mangle a quote from Apocalypse Now, “The more they tried to make it feel [...]

Floyd | Wednesday, 26th of November 2008 at 11:55:07 PM Here’s an interesting piece from der Speigel about an etymological atlas that purports to give the history of place names. It’s called The Atlas of True Names. Here’s a taste:
It is difficult to find anyone these days who is not familiar with Middle Earth, J.R.R. Tolkien’s fantastical world of orcs, hobbits and dwarves. A [...]

Floyd | Wednesday, 26th of November 2008 at 11:40:17 PM I talk about this case in my Criminal Law course… it is one of my favorites… Here is the entire opinion. Boro v. Superior Court, 163 Cal. App. 3d 1224; 210 Cal. Rptr. 122 (1985) All references are to CA Penal Code and other CA statutes.

Floyd | Wednesday, 26th of November 2008 at 11:04:30 PM John Derbyshire, Heather Mac Donald , and others have started a new blog called Secular Right. I guess they have decided that the oogedy boogedy folks like me (and the company I keep with Newton, Augustine, Luther, Aquinas, and most of the Founders) are what’s wrong with conservatism. Assertive and aggressive atheism is a winning [...]

Floyd | Wednesday, 26th of November 2008 at 07:34:27 PM The penultimate version… one bedroom left to go for the little princess…
Today’s sample….
Don’t usually like new country… Little Big Town is one exception. Love “Boondocks”.
Actually — this didn’t come up today… other Robert Shaw chorale music did, but given the season…. This is the second best Christmas album ever. If [...]

Whenever I do a column in the mighty Examiner (the newspaper for which I write) that questions the virtues of He Whom Shall Not Be Questioned, we always get two or three cancelled subscriptions. Our circulation is about 40,000. So I figure that if I do, say, ten Obama columns per year, I should [...]
