Un-freakin’-believable.  I wish. Armed troops acting on behalf of a British carbon trading company backed by the World Bank burned houses to the ground and killed children to evict Ugandans from their homes in the name of seizing land to … Continue reading →

In comments, mountainbear linked to more leftist McCarthyism. I just read Charles Stross’s “Rule 34“.  It shares many of the creepy possibilities of social networking analysis.  These bad puppies need to get their noses rubbed in their own dirt, pronto.  But we’re going to hand them our … Continue reading →

DefendUSA has a nice comment here. I’m almost sure I agree.  The (extremely slight) uncertainty is due to not knowing details about Texas higher education subsidies.  To be precise, I absolutely agree with children getting primary educations, regardless of their legal status.  But this is … Continue reading →

Meaning, of course, “bend over, here it comes again“. Next comes mandatory health practices, naturally.  It’s for your own good. UPDATE–Hey, maybe my berserker rage at these prying busybodies is actually a medical condition!  I’d love for a beaurocratic snoop to see, “wormme also has … Continue reading →

Have a little itch to do some 21st Century updates of Aesop’s Fables.  That seems like a lot of work, but there are some nice possibilities: Labor unions/markets = The Goose that Laid the Golden Eggs. “Moderates” + Obama = … Continue reading →

Foetal Ivy Leaguers are just sooo…what’s the opposite of cute? Apparently what triggered this young man’s male’s foot-stamping, breath-holding tantrum was the ConConCon.   Insty is there, so obviously evil is afoot.  Thus, behold the rhetorical genius of the 21st Century egghead!: … Continue reading →

I’m working 4 straight 12-hour nightshifts for a vacationing tech.  Expected that it would provide some blogging time, nights aren’t usually super busy.  But last night was, mostly.  And what news there was didn’t inspire commentary. Dang, this always makes me feel like … Continue reading →

You know its paving material. Muller’s intentions were good, Calabrese points out, but his decision not to mention key scientific evidence against his position has had a far-reaching impact on our approach to regulating radiation and chemical exposure. Oh, give him … Continue reading →

I’m feeling charitable to Joe Biden, which happens…well, apparently once so far. Most of you have probably heard of Yogi Berra, baseball Hall of Fame catcher and the world’s all-time master malapropist.  Malapropter?  For example, talking about a St. Louis restuarant,  “Nobody goes there … Continue reading →
