The Rodney Dangerfield of the blogosphere

I'm thinking that I might use that for my new tagline. I don't get no stinkin' respect. Today's "Best of the Web Today" column points to this humorous blog post from the Stanford Review blog. If you go there, you'll find that the post is oddly similar to this one I posted a day earlier. […]

More on the media

This originally appeared as a comment I made in response to my post on the "Jeff Gannon" brouhaha. Help me out here. So Mokhiber should go too? Eric Alterman and David Corn shouldn't be allowed in either? Or anyone representing "The Nation" or "Mother Jones" or "National Review" or "The Weekly Standard"? So, "Gannon" asks […]

When protestors attack

I think we'd have less violent protests from "peace-loving" leftists if this happened more often. WHEN 35 Greenpeace protesters stormed the International Petroleum Exchange (IPE) yesterday they had planned the operation in great detail. What they were not prepared for was the post-prandial aggression of oil traders who kicked and punched them back on to […]

Culture of death

The Hippocratic oath seems to hold less power as the years go on as this story indicates. Massachusetts General Hospital said it plans to remove a 79-year-old patient from life support next week, against the wishes of the woman's family and despite a court ruling that said her daughter had the right to decide when […]

Another dumb California Dem

Fox News reported that California Democrat Lorretta Sanchez lost a game of "gotcha" with Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld today in a hearing. At issue: the number of Iraqi forces that have been trained. Sanchez: The numbers that you (Rumsfeld) banty [sic] around about how many troops we really have out there who are around out […]

Don't forget Gino Torretta!

More proof that ESPN's Lee "Don't forget Gino Torretta" Corso is a complete and total moron. Corso threw a major fit while being interviewed by a couple of sports radio guys in Dallas earlier this week. (Audio is here.) For those of you who are unfamiliar with Corso's nickname as I have given him above: […]

Don't Panic!

The new Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy trailer is available on Amazon.com. I'm not sure I quite like how they've dealt with Zaphod Beeblebrox's two heads, but here's hoping they didn't screw up Douglas Adams' work too badly.

Speaking of criminal lawyers

Lawyer Lynne Stewart, who was convicted of numerous terrorism-related charges is quickly becoming a cause celebre among leftists terror-supporters. The National Lawyers Guild -- a bunch of America-hating lawyers -- is sponsoring a "National Day of Outrage" Thursday. We will use this national Day of Outrage to both express our condemnation of the Lynne Stewart […]

Crime round-up

Today's Union-Tribune crime briefs contain four violent attacks. Only one of them used a firearm; two were knives and the last was a broken bottle. If people want to hurt other people, gun control won't stop it from happening.

Friday Night Lights

Just got done watching the DVD and I was really impressed with the movie. It's probably one of the, if not the, best football movies made. I might have to raid the elder Hoy's bookcase and dig up his copy of the book. One thing I thought was humorous was the movie's explainer on Brian […]
